Metaverse never made sense to me except as science fiction. Because you can’t navigate a virtual space by walking (you’ll hit a physical wall in your environment), it’s hosed. And those to whom virtual escapism most appeals are likely also the most physically constrained.

Some science fiction is useful as a plot device or contrivance but when you go to practically implement it, you realize it’s incoherent or must be realized some other way. A headset is insufficient to give you embodiment. You need something like an omnidirectional treadmill and multiple feedback apparatuses, minimum.
