      Not crazy surprising
      All of metas investors invested because meta was a social media company
      Meta has abandoned social media, and even fired thousands of their social media developers
      So all those investors are uninvesting now that the company is no longer a social media company

      Generally when you find yourself falling victim to a long running joke you can do two things: embrace it and play into it, like the bands Laibach and Rammstein have with people frequently mistaking them for fascists, or ignore it, as is usually the case. Zuck, being the absolute void of charisma and competence that he is, is trying to do both simultaneously and thus failing extremely hard at both.

      On top of that, there's the fact that people are totally used to the now traditional "likes" system used basically everywhere now. I suspect many will be totally baffled and appalled by the idea that they have to pay actual money JUST to give likes in this setting, when absolutely every other service/site/whatever doesnt have such a stupid concept in it.
      This whole thing is an example of one of these companies finally overstaying their welcome, during a time when people are slowly getting more and more fed up with this type of nonsense. And all this taking place in a space only accessible by a technology that most cannot use yet!

      Coming from someone who's been deep in both recroom and horizons creator community's, recroom acts way more corporate. Honestly the metaverse is not done at all but if you're in the community you can see how quickly it's developing. So right now not the most marketable thing ever but coming from someone who's been in the vr space for 5 years it's the only game making a push and starting to make progress. Like even on the commission end of things people will actually pay artists fairly as opposed to recroom where a kids like "i can pay $20 for an entire world". Personally I see a lot of potential and I think it'll be on top in about 2-3 years as a social/creative vr space for adults.

      This has likely been done to try to prevent harassment which unfortunately does happen in VR because it is on the internet we all know the kind of people who can be found on the internet.
      But if you add collision you allow harassers to restrict your freedom of movement. In the end it gives them power the best way to handle something like that is to give users an option to create a personal space level which will render anyone invisible if they try to come closer.

      @@diamondmetal3062 that's not how the stock market works. How many investors do you think watched his stream or clips from his stream at the exact same day? Probably 0.
      Even if some of them did watch it, it wouldn't really change their minds. It takes more than that to decide whether smth can be profitable in a few years or not, especially for experienced players and big companies.
      That being said, I doubt that metaverse will ever be a success, even if Zucc invests another 100 billion into it. If smth has Wii sports level of graphics after spending 15 billion dollars then the project probably should just be abandoned.

    The only praise I had for this was the Safe Space button because it's very easy to be overwhelmed or put in a weird situation and a quick escape button is appreciated... and then that praise was immediately revoked when Dan went to use it and it didn't work properly. Clearly 15 billion dollars well spent!
    Also putting this in the Horror games playlist is perfect. XD
    Edit: Had a few people misinterpret what I mean by praise and it's a little tiring. I just meant it's really the only good thing I could see from this 'game'. I'm aware plenty of other games and consoles have buttons/options that behave the same way. I've also already been told it was added after people complained, which honestly doesn't surprise me even though it's disappointing.

    I have heard of MetaVerse maybe one or two years ago. Initially I thought it is something they are working on now in order to release in maybe 5 to 10 years. I didnt know they have been working on it for quite a long time and it was already released. It looks like some sort of embarassing Wii-Textures. This is like some early 2000-stuff. I cant believe they have realized this. Who would want to spend time and money in there instead of RL? I have seen a documentary where they sais Metaverse is supposed to be the next bing thing and companies are already buying shops and stuff so that people can shop prada and stuff in the metaverse. They even sold property for like a million or something. Who the heck spends to much money for non existent things? Why would I buy I house in a virtual reality which doesnt serve any purpose? I seriously dont get it. I feel like Zuck is trying to trick us all... this is so embarrasing...seriously.
