VR Chats made by consumer-first game developers are already only minimally compelling to niche groups (furries, anime weebs, etc).

I cant understand why people think a consumer-hostile company would be able to improve the experience enough to reach broader audiences.

People will try it for an hour or two when they boot up their oculus. Realize being in a room of shouting tweens is not fun, and then never try it again.

I'd like to take advantage of this moment to share furries making fun of Metaverse, on VRChat (1m 30s): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGmlhHvm-Tc
