Hello,

Will the metaverse (Not just Facebook Metaverse) totally or significantly replace the need for physical travel in the real world? Whether it would be travelling a short distance within a city, a road trip across a country or an overseas trip.

I am talking mostly about travelling for leisure not for work or essential purposes i.e travelling to a hospital for a medical appointment

Also referring to the metaverse itself, not Neuralink, Brain Implants etc.

    VR is awesome and I love it.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    The visual part, that is.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    The controls are still ass.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But as far as immersion goes, it's great. It's like you have the entire game environment in a bucket, and then you put that bucket on your head.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    And it's great, provided you don't try to get up and walk around.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Because you have a bucket on your head.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I'm not sure how far I can push this metaphor.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    The bucket also comes in handy when VR gives you motion sickness.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Anyway. VR is neat.
