It’ll be a sad day for the people who lose their jobs because some idiot wasted colossal amounts of money on a delusional dream. Then again it was their choice to work for one of the most evil companies on the planet, so I don’t really pity them.
Honestly I’m a little sad, and its stupid… But I wanted to share.
I have never once set… foot? inside the metaverse, but I always envisioned it ending up like the Oasis from Ready Player One (great book).
I think the concept of VR could have such crazy legs if they just get the treadmill/walking situation fully ironed out, and at a reasonable price point.
Just because Meta killed their attempt it doesn’t mean the concept of the Metaverse is dead.
VRChat is the best actualized version of the concept we have and it has been going strong before, during and after this entire bullshit with Facebook.
I think the metaverse would be cool too, but I think it needs to be made by enthusiasts and not heartless corporations. Or crypto scammers. So while I don’t care that Meta’s shitty attempt is gone, I’m still looking forward to something cooler in the future.
People hang out in video games anyway, so hanging out in the metaverse isn’t that farfetched imo.
Truly a sad day for no one in particular.

I don’t think that’s stupid at all.
