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.
