The "metaverse" is going to happen but I don't think any of the existing corporate attempts to intentionally create the metaverse are going anywhere.

as an ex intense gamer I've been struggling for quite some time to formulate how I think about the "metaverse" all the ideas on concepts make sense, communities are moving to virtual worlds etc. but I still do not believe it will happen in the ways VCs are currently funding

My critique is deeper than "Metaverse Wikipedia will beat Metaverse Encyclopedia Britannica". It's that we don't really know the definition of "the metaverse" yet, it's far too early to know what people actually want. So anything Facebook creates now will misfire.

I suspect all they really want is dominating the hardware entry point given their troubles with Apple. The rest is speculative agnostic visioning. Until an open-source headset beats the Quest on price/perf, they’ll have the position they want, whatever the content landscape does
