        I really hope you’re right. VR has a lot more long-term potential than most people realize, and if there’s a corporation in charge of it it’ll be worse

          This goes against the whole concept of the metaverse, in metas own words “There won’t be a Meta-run metaverse, just as there isn’t a ‘Microsoft internet’ or ‘Google internet’ today”. By definition, if one corporation is in charge, it’s not the metaverse.

            Yeah that’s a lie. Meta wants to be in charge. They’ve just failed to take the market share because the product they made isn’t good

              We’ll see I guess, it’s years away from actually existing.

                the project has already failed based on the initial release of their “metaverse” VR game. and whatever future plans they may have I guarantee they will either cancel it or release something completely underwhelming.

                  Yes Horizons is/was underwhelming, but it’s nothing close to a real implementation of a metaverse.

            I don’t believe for a second that Meta would produce something open and free that they didn’t control and make money from

    This is going the looong way around… when a proper functioning brain-cyber interface comes about, look out.
