Now they have to rebrand the company again to be about some AI hype spy glasses. The Metaverse was a flop.

The corporate metaverse was a huge flop. There are plenty of VR games and communities that are still thriving off the backs of the Corpo metaverse technology.

They have different goals. VR gaming has always been targeting small scale hardcore gamers. Meta was promoting the Metaverse as something the average person would use daily for work and shopping. That never happened and no company has achieved it.
