The idea is for the platform to be open to as many people as possible. Putting GTA style graphics will kill performance, making it possibly unplayable in browser and on most older computer systems.
This is a pretty interesting thing. You have a bunch of people running to a virtual decentralized matrix while existing in an actual centralized matrix. This is virtual sedation right here. "We control you but we'll let you live in a virtual world where you have an illusion of control. So you won't actually do anything about the control we have you under." 🤷🏿♂️
Nicely put. All these fools who are going crazy about "decentralised" this or decentralised that don't tell people that none of it will work if centralised systems in the real world do not provide electricity for them! Lately there's a lot of noise about decentralised websites '.crypto' domains and decentralised currencies, apparently because your precious digital horse pooh can't be controlled by the government. But there are so many examples of the gov simply disabling ALL internet access in certain cities/countries when they don't want any protests. Only few months ago Indian gov did that to the people of Kashmir for months. After that, it doesn't matter what system you have, there's nothing you can do. How can you operate your decentralised money/land/domain when you have no electricity, no wifi, no internet access in the whole country or city? Also, all those tech geniuses who are trying to destroy fiat currency by creating all these fancy cryptocurrencies, but when you buy any of those cryptos i.e. Eth, Bitcoin, Mana, XRP, guess the one important item they want from you deposited into their bank accounts? Yep, you guessed it: fiat currency! Hahahaha...

You can really tell which of the comments here are crypto bros and Decentraland users and which are the people who didn’t waste their money on an ugly virtual product.
Second Life was before in time and during 15 years we have been able to do what is popular today in "VR", I never seen Second Life as a game but rather a combination of a social platform and a virtual world that give you more mobility and options, it do not replace "reality" but rather extend it. Second Life do not demand users to have any expensive VR tools and Linden Lab (the creators of Second Life) have great experience with policing content and handling bad elements inside the virtual world, so this video was not really "news" for me, but I can understand the appeal if it. Some say that Second Life look bad, but that is for most creators is not professional game developers, some 3D buildings is made by people that is around 70 years old and never worked with 3D before, other may be handicapped so they only can use the chin to control a joystick to build and interact with other users, when you start to look around in Second Life you will soon see and learn how amazing that world is. Btw, Virtual Worlds is a great tool for handicapped people, I do not like when they just talk about the money and not how Virtual Worlds can help and improve life for folk with different sorts of disabilities.
Second life wasn't based on a blockchain were all assets are written to the ledger and can never be removed even by the creators or a government body. In this way you actually own everything you buy and nothing can take it away and you can use it in the game however you want.
I agree but at the same time how can we complain when we have not created our own? It's just like people complaining about the government. Why complain? Do something about it. Pull yourselves up by your bootstraps and come up with a solution!
Decentraland is still developing! The crazy part is that this is far from the final product. Adding a layer of eyecandy and textures is the easy part. It gets in the way of developing certain things though
ive been exploring this, as I am a 3d Designer. but There is a downside of this. The question is, "would you pay 10 million for nothing", except for something that exists in cyberspace. On the upside, content is protected by the blockchain security, so your guaranteed it to be unique. But I would never pay 10 million for vapor. People are crazy.
Having played games like Decentraland and being into crypto, I am skeptical. The world should not have been made so finite as a start. Why make it so that it is expensive to get in and own a chunk? That discourages new users. What good does that do for the game? And that is just the start of the problem. It would honestly be more interesting as a centralized project. And I know that is very antithetical to the way that most crypto is and the way I look at it too. But the truth is that it would be more interesting with a Clear Vision and development behind it. Really, what would you rather play, this? Or, Grand Theft Auto with cryptocurrency like features and an Open Marketplace? I think this is a great start, and I think a lot of work went in, but do I think these will take off and be the the biggest things of tomorrow? No I think they are a hype train, just like another crypto bubble that we are in.
@@Ethan2Tone he's still right. Decentraland looks terrible to start with, and it being controlled by users will make it look awful, like a mish mash of random crappola. The money aspect to it is another bubble. If you want something like this to be good, you need it to be centralized.
How could you possibly believe when you die, your ghost will be roaming in a video game. The key is spend your money in this reality. You only live once. 👏
Hi all, I just noticed the influx of comments since this was released and thought I'd answer some of the questions you all had as well as an update. Do you still have the land. No, I am a fine art collector and unfortunately Decentraland doesn't display my collection very well so I have moved to other platforms that are higher fidelity. They have also not implemented VR yet which is unfortunate. Did you watch Ready Player One. Yes, my decision was heavily influenced by the movie. So I am in the process of setting up an NFT onboarding/gallery business. I have over 2000 NFTs spread over 5+ blockchains. I have art displayed in 3 metaverse projects so far (Somnium Space (3068, for now), Oncyber and Hyaliko). I am planning on getting properties in new and exciting metaverse projects as and when they pop up.
In reality, you are a sad old pen pusher who robbed an innocent women of all of her Eth. How have you spent her £87k Sam???? I’m sure the BBC will be interested in our story. Dm me @bbc
Hahah bro it’s crazy that’s why you see those big spikes in MANA people with big money buy shit loads of it this is the future MANA will be huge in a few years and it’s got a low supply too.
It's like 10 years ago: Second Life and the Lindens (Linden dollars). But now you can change MANA for real dollars. Someone knows what happened with Second Life?
You could change Linden to dollars. I had a mafia and we sold poker machines to the casinos. We had land, a big mansion and an arsenal of hacks/greefers. One was a nuke that could crash the computer of anyone caught in it. I stopped playing it because it got ridiculously laggy. This decentraland is more or less a rip off of second life. Shame I can't transfer my mansion and sell it 😂
This is not a dumb idea at all.. TBH I asked little kids why they watch other people play video games rather than playing it themselves, hey it works. This will too work.
This is a first because the assets and land are stored the same way Bitcoin is, meaning it can't be erased or removed by the company or a government and eventually rules will be governed by the users themselves.
for the people that *just dont get it* think money.... candy crush had people paying 10k a month for those .99 cent extra spins, world of warcraft had 15 million people in it at one time, and games like league of legends can afford to give awau 1 million dollar prizes from a technically free to play game from people buying skins and thouseands of other business models like that are out there.This or another like it will surely make lots of money, this will work.
Sam clare says "he only sells when the market price for the piece of land reaches 10mio". I think it is kinda hard to sell land on such a price class. Because a digital world is always extensible with enough computing power and efficient software for back and front end. I mean no price rising when the supply likewise rises. Unless some influencers or big companies are moving in the near of him.
I thought about a virtual dance floor, next thought: people will be doing this after some drinks.. then the next thought: harder drugs... pretty intriguing what the future holds..
Does real land ownership exist? Does money exist? Think about it. Nothing is real. Or the game world is as real as manmade concepts in the real world. Value is created by people wanting it.
How easy this fool people are , just saying money to a paper , just because "government" said it's money. Because real money is gold,silver, etc.. Understand man.
All this really blew up recently because of Facebook and metaverse. If this VR stuff does become big, the next thing to predict would be to see which VR world people actually use. Decentraland may go down as a MySpace while the VR world that Zuckerburg creates may become the next big thing. No one knows right now
Second Life was a lot more developed and had more potential. I guess it was the wrong time, probably. Although they're still around. They should make their own crypto out of their Linden.
I thought the video was uploaded 3 days ago, when I saw 3 yrs, I introspected my whole life and decisions. BBC covered something revolutionary at its infancy.
This may have potential of becoming a virtual world similar to Ready Player One. The possibilities are really crazy if you think about it. People might go there just to escape reality for whatever reason.
Absolutely. Escapism is very much what people want. Especially during lockdown and the uncertainty that comes with it. I think the possibilities are endless especially as now we’re moving into an AI / VR computerised / robotic type world. Decentraland has years to go but I believe in them and I’m holding for longterm.
It would be cool if in this crypto world if there were real-world things such as... -Courts (a justice system). -Jails, prisons, and micro-sentencing - for certain crimes or violations. -The ability to, say, interview (any get paid for) for and hold a virtual-job...with even the ability to get fired. -The ability to collect unemployment (crypto). Modeling it as much as possible like the real world, IMO, would make it much more interesting.
Seriously, why would anyone pay money - and it costs real money - to stay a part of a virtual world where you would have to interview for a virtual job and get fired? Or to be unemployed. I mean that's what they've got in the real world. A virtual world that exactly mirrors the real world, including all the negatives and downside, isn't something people would regularly pay for.
You're doing a fantastic job! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Isn't this just another version of Second Life and didn't that turn out to be a failure? The fact Decentraland is purchased with crypto doesn't mean a thing. Investors in Decentraland may as well have invested their money in Bitconnect.
Thanks for the analysis! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How can I transfer them to Binance?
you can make educational content on top of LAND i suppose, like assemble/dissamble mechnical parts, etc. with VR it would be great, no need real parts to understand the concept. And why decentraland? because it is decentralize, whatever content u have, no third party involving in monetization. VR not only about game
This is gonna be huge. This is the future of the internet. We're shifting from 2D internet to a new 3D internet. The merge of gaming for fun and/or business. Virtual schools. Virtual jobs. Virtual entertainement. Virtual shopping. Virtual sprots. Virtual las vegas and casinos. Virtual social media. Virtual websites. Interactive movies....the possibilities are limitless. I'm hodling to the moon. MANA & Virutal Land. Most people already buy virtual property if they have ever paid to create a website, that's why it's called website address. It's just 2D, but we're moving to 3D but digital 3D is like 4D & 5D.
I feel like I'mma be the loner who doesn't play virtual reality and ill have very few friends to vibe with in reality. Its gonna be high school all over again like when I didn't use social media hahah
This is a dubious venture. You can get better visuals and experiences from Second Life, which is now over 15 years old. And instead of paying large sums of money to speculatively buy a piece of land you can build on, why not get free land in Sansar where you can build incredibly stunning VR experiences on? I expect to see the value of this "land" tank shortly after the place opens, but we'll see.
You’re not seeing the real point of DCL. They explain it like a game, however it’s not that simple. For game developers, web developers, noob developers, 3D artists, creative artists of any kind... they all have a unique place to showcase their material virtually. Devs can openly collaborate VR/Blockchain based apps easily. Second Life is just a game and that’s that.
It's only just starting to be built. And because it's decentralised, it wouldn't be possible to build something to completion and then launch it. That would be the opposite of decentralisation. It's not comparable to anything else in that regard. Owning digital goods and property.. like really owning it in an account that you control and can freely trade from is where we are heading.
It is HIGHLY unlikely that "trolls" would intentionally ruin Decentraland. They are users and investors themselves. The vast majority of users will be trying their best to increase the value of Decentraland in general, and whatever aspect of it they own in particular. Only fearmongers and naysayers are going to be worried about trolls.
It is highly likely that if there are ever any trolls then there will be a community who would be opposing them. Maybe the virtual land will become another planet or a country where there will be a ruling government, a party, elections going on, and the possibilities are infinite.
I think WORLDOPO better project because it gives you chance to start and also play for free. It is kinda nonsense to pay all those millions up front just to buy some land in virtual reality, by knowing that it is not the only game like this right now and in future will be even more. Also never know if it is a scam or not, and if it is collecting your crypto right now it is a first sign.
@@Jendelight It assumes a lot of things. First, the user base will be composed of companies, and perhaps a few gamers. And, the cost of the headset itself has to come down to make this mainstream. In addition, once all of this 'rona ends, the first thing is that people will do is go out, to see their friends, family, s.o.'s around the world. In my opinion, it'll go the way of Second Life or IMVU, it'll be short-lived.
@@MegaBlueT yeah it doesn't seem like much of a future. However, I do believe in Roblox future and the games do share a few si.ilarities I guess. My money will stay in Roblox which has a proven product and a huge player base and time will tell if I'm a fool or not.
Dude once kids get a hold playing this virtual game this thing is gone explode….and I’m not a even a fan of this but I can see this idea becoming huge! Next level video gaming….and once companies and Brands that want to reach thoses kids start to purchase advertising rights on the platform from land owners forget about Facebook insta or social media advertising I can see Decentraland and Metaverse with so much potential!
I don't get it. Second Life has all the same versatility and looks a thousand times better. I can't even imagine why people would sink that kind of money into something that looks that crappy.
Can someone please tell David Gerald that Decentaland is NOT a "game". He simply does not understand this project at all. He should not have been included in this great video explanation piece, because his silly comments detract from the understanding that the rest of the piece provides. He confuses people rather than enlightening them as to what this is all about. David... this is NOT a game. Got it? LOL
Guys i’m a longterm investor and bought mana at .09. This project is the one of the best crypto projects out there for gaming and nft’s. People are trying to play game in different ways and this is a hit and soon epic, ea, activision, apple will use mana. According to mana circulation this would worth at-least 100 dollars in next 2-3 years.

Does real land ownership exist? Does money exist? Think about it. Nothing is real. Or the game world is as real as manmade concepts in the real world. Value is created by people wanting it.
How easy this fool people are , just saying money to a paper , just because "government" said it's money. Because real money is gold,silver, etc..
Understand man.
This is a big and good idea, but it is still growing and not the thing that we expect.
Today 1 MANA is around 3,30$ that guy actually has 26,4 MILION $ now if he held and the reporter is still poor :")
Is 0.31 now...she is doing great. I can't say the same about Sam
This hasn't aged well...
All this really blew up recently because of Facebook and metaverse. If this VR stuff does become big, the next thing to predict would be to see which VR world people actually use. Decentraland may go down as a MySpace while the VR world that Zuckerburg creates may become the next big thing. No one knows right now
this sounds exactly like Second Life 10 years ago. wait for the bubble to burst.
First the bubble will expand.
Yeah Second Life definitely made some millionaires
But there is a second life now I would
Prefer to play upland to be honest.
@Hon. Ian this is outdated tech lmao
There is no bubble lol
Wow this was 3 years ago. MANA is $4.71 right now
Is this the sequel to Second Life?
Second Life was a lot more developed and had more potential. I guess it was the wrong time, probably. Although they're still around. They should make their own crypto out of their Linden.
it's now 2021, Mana is $4 = the guy turned his $800k to $32 million
I thought the video was uploaded 3 days ago, when I saw 3 yrs, I introspected my whole life and decisions.
BBC covered something revolutionary at its infancy.
Thanks for the info.... can you tell me how I can sell my historical NFT's in that Art Museum?
This may have potential of becoming a virtual world similar to Ready Player One. The possibilities are really crazy if you think about it. People might go there just to escape reality for whatever reason.
Absolutely. Escapism is very much what people want. Especially during lockdown and the uncertainty that comes with it.
I think the possibilities are endless especially as now we’re moving into an AI / VR computerised / robotic type world. Decentraland has years to go but I believe in them and I’m holding for longterm.
Whatever happened to Second Life, remember that? All this has happened before.
It hasn't happened using Block chain
@@bookztony3804 cryptokitties?
It would be cool if in this crypto world if there were real-world things such as...
-Courts (a justice system).
-Jails, prisons, and micro-sentencing - for certain crimes or violations.
-The ability to, say, interview (any get paid for) for and hold a virtual-job...with even the ability to get fired.
-The ability to collect unemployment (crypto).
Modeling it as much as possible like the real world, IMO, would make it much more interesting.
Seriously, why would anyone pay money - and it costs real money - to stay a part of a virtual world where you would have to interview for a virtual job and get fired? Or to be unemployed. I mean that's what they've got in the real world.
A virtual world that exactly mirrors the real world, including all the negatives and downside, isn't something people would regularly pay for.
@@SY-ok2dq ...you'd be surprised.
Man do you have a time machine ???
everyones acting like virtual social interaction is an amazing new thing when its litterally been around fo years
You're doing a fantastic job! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
And i saw an article today that the first country wants to build their embassy there….
Isn't this just another version of Second Life and didn't that turn out to be a failure? The fact Decentraland is purchased with crypto doesn't mean a thing. Investors in Decentraland may as well have invested their money in Bitconnect.

What do you mean?
Thanks for the analysis! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How can I transfer them to Binance?
My kids are gonna grow up not knowing a world without virtual worlds.
you can make educational content on top of LAND i suppose, like assemble/dissamble mechnical parts, etc. with VR it would be great, no need real parts to understand the concept. And why decentraland? because it is decentralize, whatever content u have, no third party involving in monetization. VR not only about game
This is gonna be huge. This is the future of the internet. We're shifting from 2D internet to a new 3D internet. The merge of gaming for fun and/or business. Virtual schools. Virtual jobs. Virtual entertainement. Virtual shopping. Virtual sprots. Virtual las vegas and casinos. Virtual social media. Virtual websites. Interactive movies....the possibilities are limitless. I'm hodling to the moon. MANA & Virutal Land. Most people already buy virtual property if they have ever paid to create a website, that's why it's called website address. It's just 2D, but we're moving to 3D but digital 3D is like 4D & 5D.
I feel like I'mma be the loner who doesn't play virtual reality and ill have very few friends to vibe with in reality. Its gonna be high school all over again like when I didn't use social media hahah
HOLY BALLLLLLLS!! MISSED THAT TRAIN! 1 share of mana at the time of recording was 10 CENTS!!! Mana 3 weeks ago was 6 DOLLARS!!!
I like that this project is gaining momentum.
30 active users LMAOOOO LLLLL
Can we can an updated news on this please?
Terrible graphics, terrible framerate... who the heck developed this??
You didn’t exactly look like a work of art when you came out the vagina, let the game grow up
@@cbmazo9229 haha😂
Wow that guy must be already a millionaire in both real world and mana.
It's a great concept but that's a lot of money for just a concept and no product.
but it is an experience. ppl pay $$ for entertainment and experiences all the time and receive no product
Things are changing at high speed in a sense that makes it hard for many people to catch up! Very scary!!
This is a dubious venture. You can get better visuals and experiences from Second Life, which is now over 15 years old. And instead of paying large sums of money to speculatively buy a piece of land you can build on, why not get free land in Sansar where you can build incredibly stunning VR experiences on? I expect to see the value of this "land" tank shortly after the place opens, but we'll see.
What's Sansa?
You’re not seeing the real point of DCL.
They explain it like a game, however it’s not that simple. For game developers, web developers, noob developers, 3D artists, creative artists of any kind... they all have a unique place to showcase their material virtually. Devs can openly collaborate VR/Blockchain based apps easily.
Second Life is just a game and that’s that.
It's only just starting to be built. And because it's decentralised, it wouldn't be possible to build something to completion and then launch it. That would be the opposite of decentralisation. It's not comparable to anything else in that regard. Owning digital goods and property.. like really owning it in an account that you control and can freely trade from is where we are heading.
The graphic is still NOT good enough. Only if the graphic of Decentraland is as good as that of GTA, hundreds of millions of users will draw in.
Well its worth now
.27 cents lol probably now better to buy than 6 years ago. Would be a discouraging investment
It's fair to say that the bald dude is not convinced. He's not even trying to hide some anger :D
Yup
Seems like he was the smartest person they interviewed.
Basically like the Oasis
It is HIGHLY unlikely that "trolls" would intentionally ruin Decentraland. They are users and investors themselves. The vast majority of users will be trying their best to increase the value of Decentraland in general, and whatever aspect of it they own in particular. Only fearmongers and naysayers are going to be worried about trolls.
It is highly likely that if there are ever any trolls then there will be a community who would be opposing them. Maybe the virtual land will become another planet or a country where there will be a ruling government, a party, elections going on, and the possibilities are infinite.
yo this one financial adviser was spittin facts left and right.
I think WORLDOPO better project because it gives you chance to start and also play for free. It is kinda nonsense to pay all those millions up front just to buy some land in virtual reality, by knowing that it is not the only game like this right now and in future will be even more. Also never know if it is a scam or not, and if it is collecting your crypto right now it is a first sign.
24 Million?
lol you can enjoy your plot of virtual land, me and my friends would rather hang out at a cheap bar.
Agree.
And I'd rather have a REAL experience with a sexbot now that my wife dumped me!!
Lol you’re right J but since the world is like it is, you can’t hang out at a bar no more.
I think there’s endless opportunities with this
@@Jendelight It assumes a lot of things. First, the user base will be composed of companies, and perhaps a few gamers. And, the cost of the headset itself has to come down to make this mainstream.
In addition, once all of this 'rona ends, the first thing is that people will do is go out, to see their friends, family, s.o.'s around the world. In my opinion, it'll go the way of Second Life or IMVU, it'll be short-lived.
@@MegaBlueT yeah it doesn't seem like much of a future. However, I do believe in Roblox future and the games do share a few si.ilarities I guess. My money will stay in Roblox which has a proven product and a huge player base and time will tell if I'm a fool or not.
Can we get an update on the multi millionaire Dan!!!!
Dude once kids get a hold playing this virtual game this thing is gone explode….and I’m not a even a fan of this but I can see this idea becoming huge! Next level video gaming….and once companies and Brands that want to reach thoses kids start to purchase advertising rights on the platform from land owners forget about Facebook insta or social media advertising I can see Decentraland and Metaverse with so much potential!
They’re too busy playing GTA
Gonna be honest with you, most
Cope, not looking good. Nobody wants to play a terribly made game that looks like is from 2008
L+cope+currently has only 38 players
I don't get it. Second Life has all the same versatility and looks a thousand times better. I can't even imagine why people would sink that kind of money into something that looks that crappy.
2:42 - (Simplified Chinese) spawn point, 1 plot of land 3 generation's wealth, you know right?

Ayyeeee

The big question is if Sam has his NFT art gallery.
I have about 7 galleries over 3 platforms.
Facebook will buy These!
Don't we already have Second Life? What is the difference?
this costs more lmao
This aged well. How far can this go ?
Upland metaverse makes more sense so far
Can someone please tell David Gerald that Decentaland is NOT a "game". He simply does not understand this project at all. He should not have been included in this great video explanation piece, because his silly comments detract from the understanding that the rest of the piece provides. He confuses people rather than enlightening them as to what this is all about. David... this is NOT a game. Got it? LOL
What would you call it.? The site is careful not up label it a game but it can’t be ‘legally’ called an investment. What an entertainment universe?
How sad, I rather stay in reality and meet friends in person...
guys join the game 0x universe its a new crypto game
Ive never even called a friend on facebook.... no way im strapping into vr to hang out with ppl
Guys i’m a longterm investor and bought mana at .09. This project is the one of the best crypto projects out there for gaming and nft’s. People are trying to play game in different ways and this is a hit and soon epic, ea, activision, apple will use mana. According to mana circulation this would worth at-least 100 dollars in next 2-3 years.
Your analysis wason point how much mana you have rightnow
I entered at 3.32, let's se where it will go in an year🤔
sam knew what he was into
