A friend of mine was super into it for a while. All the people are hiding from new players. I had the same impression as you until my friend brought me to secret parties and stuff. But it has not kept my attention more than 8 hours in the last 20 years. I always wanted to like it, just didn't.
- cykros 3y agoMy favorite thing in SL years ago was probably the Rantmedia studio that was set up to do live radio shows (which were also of course distributed as podcasts). It tied in the live audience experience with the text chat, and made for some ability to directly interact with the hosts. Now, admittedly I've seen much of the same thing achieved with an IRC channel, as the graphics didn't necessarily do a ton of heavy lifting, but it was still a fun ambience. Which is really what Secondlife was always good at -- making some atmosphere for your online chat groups. There's the ability to pull in streaming video or audio as well, to tie it all together. But yes, it's just a framework. It's what you make of it.
- cianmm 3y agoIf all the people are hiding from new players, how do new people get onboarded into SL without just getting bored and leaving?
- stcroixx 3y agoMost do get bored and leave. It’s not for everyone. Most long time players would probably prefer no new players. It’s not anyone’s priority.
