What ever happened to this metaverse nonsense? I mean they changed the company name to show how seriously they were taking it and ... nothing.
They may have realised that they didn't want to compete with second life anymore
I think the closest thing they'd be competing with is VRChat and that's a whole other can of worms
They were competing with people who didn't want to strap a screen to their face.
Now it looks like they're competing for world domination
Ah true, they wanted it for everyone else who wasn't already in VRChat
It still exists?
If it still exists, but it is in its niche like virtual reality
Aren't they big enough to just buy Second Life and have a full, already-working "metaverse" waiting for them?
It didn't create a return for VCs fast enough.
Now VCs are throwing money at anybody who slaps a "now with AI!" sticker on the side of their shovelware. All aboard the money train! Who cares if it does anything useful as long as we can convince somebody to pay for it.
the only metaverse we got is a wireless VR to watch pornhub 💀
