On the other hand, a more mature version of something like Google Glass that could give me virtual overlays on reality? Solve the issue of making the interface intuitive and non-intrusive and I am 100% there as a daily use item.īut when “the metaverse” is getting used to describe a dozen different tangentially related technologies and ideas, many of which are clearly half-baked, it’s hard to pin down what is even being discussed. I’d try it a couple of times and then stop from a combination of the hassle and no one else I know doing that, thus rendering it pointless. I think “the metaverse” is just such a nebulously I’ll-defined concept at this point that it’s hard to even talk about in a serious way.ĭo I think people are going to start socializing in VR as a primary means of communication? No. I find it impossible to envision an average person wanting to put on a cumbersome VR headset to go spend money to role play real life in VR after working 8 hours. Most of them want to boot up their console and hop into a game or turn on the TV and chill on the couch. It's a cool game and utterly fascinating in terms of economics and sociology, but relative to the gaming world it's tiny 30,000 players.įacebook is building out and hyping up the Meta Verse expecting tens of millions of users without even realizing that the vast majority of people don't want to invest time and energy into their entertainment like that. The marketplace for those is very saturated already, and if he's trying to make a game where people invest time and real money into, that market is very, very small, and it already exists and it's called Eve Online. Second this, the big Zuck is trying to make a VR mmorpg but doesn't even realize that's what he's making. But the conceit of the meta verse was always myopic at best, and blind at worst. VR and AR worlds may have their day in the sun - granted some very real threats to their potential infrastructure don’t materialize. Who the fuck would want to own virtual real estate in Mark’s little terrarium? It’s delusive and cultish to suggest one might benefit from that. Additionally, they also rely on a ubiquity of trust in fucking Facebook that hasn’t existed since 2013. But they all rely on a kind of ubiquity on the supporting tech that, flatly, doesn’t exist. I literally just wrote out a couple I humbly suggest would be bangers, today. Sure: hypothetically, there are fascinating use cases for the level of enduring VR Zuckerberg is aiming at. But, really, does anyone honestly think that the personal technological infrastructure exists at current to sustain anything more than a passing interest in the fucking meta verse? It’s trite it’s 100% Silicon Valley hot air, and almost no substance. It’s a fucking joke.Īt best the meta verse presents a great scam for early adopters, much like NFTs.
