After the insane explosion of $sand which grew from 0.03 to 6.6 at the moment I'm writing. more than 200X growth, seems people are considering this is the end of metaverse and began to focus more on #web 3 #layer 2 etc. But I think Metaverse still have a long way to go.

The real Metaverse for me is not just about virtual land or paly 2 earn but a bridge to connect the virtual world to the reality.

Points raised by Metabase Network is very useful as the reference of Metaverse ecosystem
1. VR device will be a necessary part of Metaverse
2. A healthy and complete economic system in Metaverse is crucial for agricultural and industrial use
3. Key point now is how to build an infrastructure to includes VR, AI, Blockchain to achieve the real form of Metaverse which contains: identity, friends, immersion, low-latency, diversity, in time, economic and civilization.

In short, we need a metaverse public chain. I'm waiting for a wise team start to working on this or I will bet on the current public chain now if any of them can realize asap that Metaverse is the answer LOL.

The problem is to apply VR equipment massively, the cost will be too high and hard to realize I think.

AR should become an alternative way for VR. Remember that so many devices right now already supported AR. that's why some metaverse companies are preferring to take AR rather thN VR to be used in their metaverse. You can see how PYR was developing AR battle rather than VR. The main purpose of metavers to create a virtual world that used real economic system as a part of its world to build a sustainable virtual world that anyone can doing almost the same thing like what they are doing in the real world related to the financial activities.
VR was not the only answer and it the developers are feeling hard to use it and there was AR as the alternative solution for that.


OP, i guess any of these materverse projects are also working on their own metaverse chains.

VR equipment costs are high because the technology is new and the equipment is not ready massively. People are still not aware of Metaverse news so they do not think that the technology exists. But in the future, if the Metaverse project can grow faster, the equipment will be ready and the cost will also reduce. So it is normal to see something will cost higher as not many big companies are involved in the new technology. Once that can reach more people and many news about Metaverse and everything related to that available in many places that will be the new era for Metaverse to grow faster.

Actually the reason why metaverse is hype now are gonna use their network token to expand the metaverse fame. If you are familiar with axie infinity, they are now in the process of deploying ron tokens a new token for the whole ecosystem of axie infinity and they said that it can be used on different gaming metaverse once the token is start running.

If metaverse depends entirely on VR sets then it's a failure, not everyone would spend thousands on VR set to experience metaverse, if this is the plan then it failed already sorry, when playstation introduced VR years ago many don't even care including myself

Great video why there will be mass migration to the Metaverse in 2022:

It will not entirely depend on VR, but I think it should an essential part, there are many way to connect the reality to virtual world, but at least one of it should be we can feel this world with an VR equipment, do you think so?

You got a point, well hope the day will come soon, everyone will got a full VR device just like we got a smartphone now :)

the metaverse will grow as it gets more popular. Projects now need to focus on content and topics to attract users. It's a pity that many projects launch but only for short-term money. Regarding web3 I think it will thrive but there will be many obstacles.

Totally agree with you, I saw many projects with great potential but looks they are stuck at the blueprint stage. Looking forward to see some real breakthrough.

Honestly with these metaverse tokens, you don't actually need to be involved with them. There are traders that just trade with those tokens and doesn't have to wait for their application to come.
While the faithful investors for those projects, there they are trading those tokens and relying on the fluctuations of day to day basis and making profit with it.

If the other developer can develop or create a new thing that will help the process and can solve the "stuck at the blueprint stage", it will not make Metaverse stop in a place. Or maybe that thing is still under development and can not release in shortly so we need to wait for a while. But Metaverse has a chance to become the next trend on the crypto market so we can wait and see what will happen next.

if people really interested they will do what ever it takes and you know because of curiosity as well there's no impossible when it comes such problems. Buy yeah let's see what will be results in the future.. In fact at the first place if their views isn't that good about releasing such project, perhaps they will keep it secret. Because its a failure for them once bad things happened or it didn't become successful.  Just saying.

Its a good point for the meta public chain  ，but how it will works

What do you see ? now there are many online stores with very diverse models and all of them are also almost the same in terms of serving each of their customers, so what will be seen in the online store so that you are so curious about the presence of this topic ?

Do you think that any existing blockchain platforms would be able to innovate fast enough to keep up pace with these things?

I agree that Metaverse is the future, but I simply think that current projects are way too overvalued given their status in the long run.

E.g. it is much more likely that the profits in this field with VR headsets will be made by chipmakers, software companies, and AI technologists instead of on some random game based metaverse.

When one is developed the rest will just copy-paste the codes and some few editions of it and then they are good to ask for funds. When Axie Infinity was released, eventually there are some play-to-earn games as well that just come out of nowhere. It's even forked lately which is Bxie Infinity 2.0

We can just wait for one project to release thier meta and the rest that had it on thier roadmap will probably launch as well. It just needs one for all to surface on the market. But why Gala and SAND have no future, it's hard to believe but the gas fee I guess is one reason.

At this time, what projects have you seen with new breakthroughs that can become real ? because there are so many projects at this time that don't have a completely new and real breakthrough for life, so I need to know it from you for now.

I haven't seen any project actually made breakthrough about this, but I saw Metabase Network brought the complete idea about metaverse should be a real connection of reality and virtual world. in another words, the native residence of metaverse should be live both in reality and virtual, two parallel worlds.

I agree that people are interested in price is not the main thing. I think the reason why Virtual equipment is expensive is because there are very few items on the market, that's the reason why things are expensive. I'm sure in a few years there will be more virtual tools on the market, so they will definitely be cheaper. As a result, people easily play the metaverse. I think the metaverse becomes a necessity to reach global.

SAND is just a standalone game imho that doesn't have too much to do with the Metaverse.

A lot of projects are getting hyped just because they have something tangentially related to the Metaverse, when in reality they are probably pretty useless outside of allowing the owners to flex the pretty virtual things they have.

Diversify your investments. Don't get caught up with the hype.

What makes me most curious about metaverses is that we will find experts in metaverses anywhere in the world, those users who gain more experience and learn so much that they teach those who know less about it. Another promising thing is NFT games. in metaverses, how can it be treated? will they be reliable? since normal NFT games do not give as much security as it should, in this sense I think things will go another way, a way where they provide enough confidence for investors to be encouraged to enter.

Im currently working on a project like this :)

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5203331.msg58917761#msg58917761

It use the unity engine to support a maximum of different hardware and also some Web client. Its still heavily work in progress though :)

Im also big fan of vr, the controllers with 6 degree of freedom clearly improve the experience of interacting in a 3d environnement, especially compared to let say an android Phone who hasnt even any buttons at all. Especially if it has good physics etc connecting the 3d world with physical motion throught touch controller is really a whole different exeprience than using a single 2 axis mouse or touch screen on smart Phone.

The headset could be less usefull, but if you want two hands + look direction vr equipement is a must :)

But i still try to work unity input system at its maximum to support for all kind of input control android with screen touch / computer mouse + keyboard and vr headset, plus some web interface.
