You’re onto something interesting there! A lot of the big tech companies pushing the “metaverse” seem to be rebranding concepts that already exist in various forms. When you strip away the shiny new buzzwords and flashy tech, some of these platforms do feel a lot like the MMOs (Massively Multiplayer Online games) that have been around for decades.

It sounds like you signed up for something that's trying to sell itself as a whole new universe but might just be a reworked version of what we've already seen. I think the metaverse, at its core, is just a next step in social, immersive digital spaces, but many of the current “big players” are focused on positioning their platform as groundbreaking, even when the experience doesn’t feel all that new.

Which platform did you sign up for? I’m curious if you feel like it has potential, or if it’s all smoke and mirrors!
