Microsoft seems to be more focused on what can happen now, which I like. In contrast, Meta seems to focus on what *will* come in the future. For that reason, I prefer Microsoft's approach.

[@FaeezHendricks]

For me the Metaverse isnt as exciting as they make it seem to me. For me if you want to be in that type of world, you will still feel bound by your real world. For example the avatar flipping in space... she is literally sitting somewhere at home while that is happening. I dont know... Im not sold. If you cant 'feel' , 'smell' or 'taste' something in the metaverse... then its still very 2d and you are looking through a VR headset etc. Also.... why the massive push to get everyone into a 'game' themed world? Metaverse just reminds me of another social game really. I dont know... Too many thoughts in my head about this lol

[@phillipjiang1593]

the same argument was used for video games, social media, and online shopping years ago. Look at the present we live in. It's not about being equal to the real world, it's about having enough resemblance to pretend that it's real, while being infinitely more convenient and addictive

[@gamerx2.079]

well they say there also working on that like haptic gloves and somwthin

[@hands_0n543]

I mean... technically, you can taste and smell, and with haptics you definitely can feel it, but I understand what you mean. But the whole point is not to equal real life, because if that were the case, there wouldn't be massive robots and dystopian settings, the point is to be close enough to be "in" the space but with heightened stylized factors. You don't need to physically float to have fun in a 0 gravity space. You don't need to be physically punched to understand that you need to avoid it. It's a flatscreen experience where you are in full control, not a downgraded real life copy

[@mathieubordeleau150]

I really don't understand how this is supposed to be seen a a revolutionary thing. Going in a 3d space with a custom avatar to meet others sound like Second Life... which came out in 2003 hardly a new concept if you ask me.

[@fredhandfield]

The revolutionary thing, if they success, is interoperability. It's doing what the web did for 2d content and bring it to immersive media but they want to do it with interoperability built deeper. The first goal from Meta seems to have Avatars that can travel everywhere and be made by anyone and be really owned by the user and not under some company's account.

[@Buckzoo2030]

2nd life was too early. Even Meta is far from ready.

[@fredhandfield]

@@svenfruiti494 Especially if there are 10 companies invested in developing the Metaverse. It should not be 10 Metaverse, just like there isn't 10 Internet. You should be able to take an Avatar made by any of those companies and take it to content created by any of those companies and they should all link together. I'm not saying it will be easy to do but it's their goal, at least publicly.

@@fredhandfield Second life also had sone interoperability due to having different clientd and stuff. What lead to it's demise in the end was prob. that it is still a product in the end...

Not too sure metaverse is efficient for work. Google chat and messaging apps still seem far superior because you can chat with multiple individuals separately or together in groups without having to worry about visually or audibly being seen or heard. Whereas in metaverse it's like physically working in a office all over again just with pretty visuals.

[@Akab]

you could have 2d screen panels in the 3d Environment, basically using them like Touchscreens , so the best of both sides. like i always have signal messenger and a spotify player on my wrist as well as my Desktop being accessible from every game/app i am using in vr! ^^

[@LawSupremacy]

Until both systems offer realistic graphics like in AAA games this is basically VR chat. In my opinion the tech isn’t there yet. How are they going to link my room to the Metaverse? Don’t get me wrong it would be an amazing way for me to get a realistic view of a project out of my country, a tour of somewhere I’m not, etc. I just don’t think moving my Phone/VR Set around to scan all regions of my house everyday will be as great. Plus you have to consider the lengths that the realistic/heavy cloud data of your Metaverse home has to go to through in order to go to and from servers almost having to always display the accurate depiction of your house. Downloading or Rendering 3D designs are already slow on the cloud imagine your whole house having to load once you turn on your VR Set. TLDR Great Idea but doesn’t have the tech to support it yet
