It is a flop because people don't give a fucking shit about old Sims looking graphics.
On top of that, you can't even enjoy VR with high quality graphics, because it makes you physically ill.
I played Alien: Isolation in VR, and I though I was going to vomit after 30 mins.
You would be surprised how critical non-gamer people are about graphics.
Once I was playing Blood, and my non-gamer friend asked me wtf I was doing playing this old piece of shit game.
Frankly, I don't mind old school graphics, I like it for nostalgia. But most people think it looks like stinky dog shit on a slab of concrete a hot summer day.

I just checked out the reviews since i havent really been following it outside some of the negative news articles ive seen.
Looks like the main issue is that their customer support is largely automated and not helpful, and when you eventually reach a human they seem highly untrained.
The platform is oversaturated in fake content and bot users (some reported profiles that were advertising child sex trafficking) and theres a ton of ads for a paid experience.
Another huge issue is that the hardware is prone to failure, and many people who purchased the warranty sent it back for repairs and either received a refurbished one as a replacement that also doesnt work or its been in their shop for up to a year.
Nevermind the graphics, it just looks like an expensive piece of shit with no chance of redemption.

Anyone who is opposed to VR, should really consider VR First-person view porn. Not some weird cartoons, but banging real porn stars.
Now that's what's up!

Imagine they make the technology small enough that it can fit into a cool pair of sunglasses. Maybe this will require some cooperation with a company like Rayban or Gucci. You can integrate it into something like a car. Where you can see a 3D projection of a map for example. |

You'd have to be retarded to even contemplate logging in to the metaverse.
Facebook is a fucking hellspace of advertisements. They would harvest your organs if they could, they would laser-brand coke ads directly into your fucking retinas if the technology was there, they would induce tinnitus that played All I Want for Christmas is You 24 hours a fucking day if only you don the headphones. The only reason people still use facebook today is because we're used to it, it's old tech that slithered into our lives ten years ago and it's difficult to imagine life without it. It's a fucking hernia that we just suffer through because we can't remember what life was like before we had a fucking hernia.
It's a shit-tier service, censorship and eternal ads have been normalized. We drink shit because we got used to the taste, because the shit-to-water percentage was increased incrementally.
Doesn't mean people are completely fucking stupid, however. The metaverse has no incremental slither-factor, it's a fucking blatant Bonzai Buddy with a 100% shit quotient. There will be no early adopters because there is only so much of zuckerberg's feces a man can stomach, and without early adopters - users, in other words - social media cannot exist.

Meta is failing because it's as if Zuckerberg slid open the side door on a rape van with illegally dark tinted windows and is waving candy or high fructose corn syrup Sweet Baby Rays at you.

(slightly) seriously speaking, it failed because nobody knew what it should be. people will want it because… what? what advantages it has over good old "social networks"? things like "second life" are there for ages, and they never became "mainstream".
also, minecraft never had fancy graphics, yet how popular is it?
there is simply nothing to do in "metaverse". so no wonder that people don't go to the place where they have nothing to do.
also, current VR tech sux.

'known for his work on classic games such as Wolfenstein 3D and Quake' Ironically, it is games like that that actually work best in VR. When the graphics are too advanced, you feel motion sickness, at least I do. |
