Second Life is actually better in every way (more engaging and fun) than anything we've seen come out of the Metapharce to date. FB was never a games company.

Games are challenging in a distinctly different way compared to the $FB specialty- Platform Scale engineering. Even with Carmack helping them they're still not doing a convincing job of pulling it off to transform themselves into .. whatever they're trying to become. I couldn't even say, perhaps they want to become like MS Xbox or Slony PS5?
- paulryanrogers 4y agoCarmack never made interesting worlds, settings or themes. That was done by others. His brilliance came from making tech and tools that could bring those worlds to life in an era when the tech seemed impossible. Yet VR is just so much harder, no one person alone can really polish to the level needed for mass market adoption. Heck even Doom (1993) era tech still makes a significant part of the population sick.
