Metaverse is a complete rip off of second life. Second life has been around for over a decade. The metaverse is not new or original in any way.
I'd be amazed if they don't sue.

How could they sue though? They really don’t have any grounds to. Second life is a metaverse, but not virtual reality.

Virtual reality is just hardware. You can use it on anything.

True, but the concept of a metaverse isn’t proprietary. I agree Second Life did it way better before anyone else did, but I don’t think they can sue just based on another metaverse being made.

I think they could. From what I've seen it's the same thing but with a VR headset - the headset doing all the work.
Second Life looks the same and works the same. You can even buy property. Metaverse just feels like a rip off to me and it gets my back up a bit given facebook and Zuckerbergs story. It's all hype and no substance.
