Thoughts

  • I do not like the term 'metaverse'!
    • Besides the Facebook connotations and the Neal Stephensen-esque geekiness of it, it's not a universe about the universe. It's just a set of alternate universes.
      • although some see it, and it was originally conceived as a monolithic alternate reality
  • "Some envision the metaverse as an augmented reality or virtual reality experience, where users can immerse themselves in a computer-generated environment. Others envision the metaverse as a platform like Roblox or Unreal Engine, where users can Create and share their own virtual worlds. There are also those who see the metaverse as a blockcHain-Based system, where users can buy, sell, and trade virtual assets... Dungeons and Dragons can be conSidered the first real metaverse." 1
