Yeah, Second Life was the first promise of the metaverse circa 2008. Except back then everyone compared it to Snow Crash instead of Ready Player One.

And having to use the controls for movement didn’t distract from the experience? If I had to run in VR, I’d find it hard not to want to actually run.

Say something CoD or Battlefront where movement is key to the experience.

Like I said in a previous post, if anyone had more than a passing interest in “the metaverse”, Second Life would rule the world right now. They had better graphics than Zuck has now in 2010. AR and VR are interesting concepts for video games but it’s all very niche as a way of life. Go check out Second Life, you’ll see what I mean.
