The metaverse needs to have a purpose. That effects your real world life. For example you can walk around a virtual walmart, mall ect. within a server as an avatar where you can walk around run into friends also within the same server. You pick out groceries, electronics, ect. Then your items you picked up are shipped you linked with door dash, uber or whatever delivery service. Meaning you can shop for groceries or whatever without having to leave your house actually be able to see the product look at lables and still feel like your actually there.

Think how you are using online shops like amazon at the moment. The only reason to use metaverse instead would be a quicker and better shopping experience and there is no way to get there at the moment.

@@jbradley I tend to agree there are valid reasons. Especially after watching meta connect and listening to leadership talk about the challenge of making something truly scalable - to potentially billions of people, eventually - that can also accurately render every person's face in real time on user friendly STANDALONE headsets (a nascent technology, if you think about them as a new computing platform altogether). The scale of their ambition is astonishing...execution remains to be seen. I'm very interested in your additional thoughts / insights on why the graphics suck for now, and what the timeline might realistically be for a major upgrade considering the hardware/ software constraints.

It's freaky that no one has legs.

Are all these VR worlds so cartoon like? I would prefer environments with a more photorealistic look, like in a 3D open world game. Also, I wonder why you can’t build your avatars face based upon actual selfies. With options to tweak of course but still I’d rather meet avatars that I knew looked something like their real world users as opposed to something completely made up.

@Matic3d

Photorealism will come, but remember this is new tech, not a pc game… there are limits to hardware, networking issues, server infastructure etc that are all different enough from mainstream game dev or even typical vr game dev to require new approaches.
