- #creatornow Mark Zuckerberg has just rebranded Facebook as Meta, to focus on the Metaverse. But he's already too late. Here's the Four Big Players who have already beaten Meta and are 1,000x the size of Facebook and Meta in the Metaverse.
Plus, what do Unity CEO John Riccitiello and Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney have to say about Facebook, Meta and the Metaverse? It's all covered in this video, together with the latest stats on Unity, Epic, Fortnight, Tencent, Microsoft, Roblox, Minecraft, Metaverse Crypto and Metaverse NFTs.
The Metaverse isn't coming. Because it's already here.
In the words of Neal Stephenson, who first used the word Metaverse in his book Snow Crash “all information looks like noise until you break the code.”

Either ways,
passive incomes can still be earned regardless , it will amuse how irrational occurrences in the markets turn out the most profitable
Exactly 👍🏻.
I don’t see how anyone can benefit from the markets without fully grasping about how it operates. I feel so many are still missing out on the lucrativeness in WallStreet cause of ignorance
WallStreet can be profitable to anyone but I believe doing it with proper system is the best way to go at it.
How are you earning passive incomes @@Couchlnvestor ?
Consistent profits is what I’m longing for
Well I’m no pro , but my investment continues to yield positive outcomes letting Noud Mikan a pro investment advisor manage my investments affairs in stocks and bonds , and I tell you it’s been 9months of consistent profits , all thanks to his system and analysis.
I believe you earning as a result of this.
Folks should know the markets requires serious attention before profits can be earned , investing with pros isn’t a bad idea at all. whereas it can save rookies especially from capital wastage and the stress
A metaverse has to be VR and open source, so meta’s metaverse isn’t even a real metaverse, it’s just a VR space owned by a company
Second life but with more advertising and censorship!
Yeah it needs to be open source
This is true. The internet began to suck when when it was owned by the same 3 or 4 companies.
@@xenobreak1160 the internet is still open source, it's just that many corporations own a lot of main stream sites in it.
Yeah the metaverse already exists
this vid was honestly relieving, having someone else tell me that our world isn't likely to be ran by a company that infringes on user privacy and calls us "dumb fucks" is such a reliever
Yeah I had my heart beating faster thinking everyone lost their mind glad that I found this vid and this comment B)
Even tho i have a quest 2 i hate marks guts
Like if a more popurla vr choice was here i would buy it
I am a communication sciences student in México and everyone is losing their minds, grateful to Zuckerberg for alow them socialize on this way. But i really dont get the point if projects like the minecraft's online, VR chat or second life did it before in an organic way. Im so sorry for my grammar. Im glad to read the comments here
im a fb advertiser but i hate fb lol
It's crazy how I thought I would never be one of these old people that get of touch with new technology, but here we are I'm 21 and I think the Metaverse is the worst idea ever.
Facebooks metaverse seems awful to me bc it doesn’t meet the criteria for a metaverse. A democratized open source metaverse is something I’ve dreamed of for years I think it would be fun but I can understand why you’d say otherwise.
@Aurora Peace it is not comparable to alchohol lol
Same dude, 22 here, n we are all doomed XD
21 lolold... metaverse isn't an idea
@@dlightfoot Well right now it sounds like one to me. Everything I've seen to actually be usable right now are some VR games and some VR rooms where people hang out in horrible looking avatars. Very far from something unavoidable and revolutionary in my opinion. So the actual Metaverse still seems like an idea to me. And a bad one as well, at least if Facebook is involved.
the biggest problem is everyone feels suspicious about how Meta's(Facebook) manage personal information.
Fr I can't imagine what information metas gonna try and grind from it's users
Honestly that too it's both. I do acknowledge the misinformation campaign fakebook constantly pulls. As neurolinks become more developed i am really worried about how society will navigate them

So the stage is set for people to become so addicted to and so immersed in their virtual reality that they become lost to our reality.
They said the same would happen with TV and the Internet. And while it's true those who lose it the wrong way end up worse, but also those who use it the right way end up better. Some use TH-cam to learn stuff for life, others to distract themselves from life.
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 We might describe ourselves as being totally immersed and addicted to our own reality.

I hate that as a 21 year old I feel like I have to constantly catch up with what tf is happening on the Internet everyday. It is nuts I wish we slowed down a bit more these days I find the Internet and the over use of data can cloud our thinking quicker and faster than ever, thought viruses ... like you said all information is noise until you break the code
then slow down, shut ur devices down and stop whining. we cant control things out of our capabilities
I just watch cat videos
Don’t listen to this other guy, you have been targeted and exploited. The internet puts so much at our fingertips and much of it is specifically designed to make you addicted thru manipulation of your endorphins. Take some serious time off to enjoy family and the real world. You must enjoy the real world and disconnect to save your brain, or you will cause stress levels to rise .

I fucking love this. Thank you. I’m not a gamer, and i’m relatively old, but i’m fascinated by the rise of AI, tech, computing and especially with humanity’s future (be it good or bad or both) I hate Facebook, and their shitty business practices, and I want to see it fail and die on it’s ass so bad. The idea that their devisive, manipulative, greedy, maniacal plans could work and take ownership and control of us all digitally or otherwise is super terrifying. So it was absolutely brilliant to hear this great news, so thanks!

Facebook will hire 10,000 people to build the biggest metaverse, it will be the most massive one, you cannot compare some games to the actual global metaverse world. But what I agree with is that it should be open-source and not locked to one company.
He can build, doesn’t mean people will flock over. People already don’t trust him. It’ll b an uphill battle, unless he creates a monopoly. And even then it’ll b rough and rusty operation.
Yah and it will be the metaverse version of Dubai..
I already know so many people who just wont use Meta however big they gonna built it
@@APokeInTheEye I won't
@@RojaJaneman People ALWAYS choose the best and most convinient things. If the best metaverse is going to be built by Facebook/Meta, majority of people will jump right on. Majority of people hate Amazon, but they will never sacrifice a few minutes to buy their product directly from a sellers website. They will always come to amazon and order there, just so they don't loose a little bit of convinience.
Can't we just put Mark Z in jail where he belongs? ... and not pay anymore attention to his antics
Wouldn't matter if we did! He could pay any bail they set...and then he would buy the entire prison complex. People that rich are untouchable under US law.
Sadly there'll always be people brainwashed into wanting this as part of their lives. The businessmen know that people these days favour escapism over the harsh reality. They're just cashing in on that.
he’s too powerful….
This video is a perfect example of confirmation bias. You find all bits and pieces of arguments (whether real or imagined) that fit your narrative and ignore the the mountain of facts that point the other way. Not defending Facebook here; they've been terrible at many things, but to call them a failure already: a bit unfair and just plain wrong. They are likely going to be a big player. How big? Time will tell.
I agree expealy since a meta verse can’t be on flatscreen and that was his first argument
I agree! I find it bizarre that he can’t see that VR will definitely play a big role in the metaverse.
@@Jaifreeman it was extremely odd because literally NOBODY is doing something even REMOTELY close to what metaverse is envisioning, not even close.
Facebook would be doing something that's very clearly unique, different than almost everything else that exist right now, so they aren't even participating in the same bracket☠
@@Jaifreeman The problem with VR is there is no way to tell you how gamechanging it is. You have to experience it for your self. Clearly this guy has never experienced it.
Imagine actually shilling for zuck
I do not even know what to say about this. I am 14 and I just hope that this stays rather small because I have a terrible feeling that this will become the beginning of the dystopian future with companies soon enough controlling our lives. We should not be using the internet to this extent as this will have a catastrophic effect on humanity. Imagine 10-20 years from now what the world will be like if we keep going in this path. Not even 20 years ago the internet was very scarce and people used it as a accessory and not as part of daily life. This is frustrating as there is nothing that most people can possibly do. Even the current generation are concerned about the “metaverse.” Every year that passes; the less likely I think that the internet is a fad and more a way of life. We need stop being online all the time as this will have a terrible effect on us and the future generations. It is scary to think that one day we won’t even go outside and physically speak and interact with people. Keep in mind that I am only 14 and not some old guy.
Very wise for a 14yr old. !! Best wishes & happy New Year!
@@t.c.8697 Happy new year to you too!
14 here too. One side of me is genuinely fuckin terrified, other side of me makes the situation sound too hellish to be true or successful. But there is an extremely small chance the metaverse will take over real life, since not only is the majority of the worlds economy and business based in real life, but lower income developing countries have little access to the things we have, and taking them over with the metaverse is going to be impossible. Im mostly scared that the future generations will disregard this anti-metaverse logic and see us how we see boomers, because if the people themselves are sucked into it then thats when humanity is lost.
However, the metaverse (at least in facebook's/meta's perception), is without a doubt going to fail. With everyone perfectly in control under the influence of meta, the world just wont be able to function properly. Plus most people disagree with it.
I say as a society we just abandon anything owned by meta, leave them starved and hungry and make all that invested money absolutely worthless
@@alextheconfuddled8983 glad to see more younger people actually thinking of how these things could affect society!! Happy new year!! Best wishes
Wait until you get into the workforce and realize everyone's lifes is already controlled by corporations. We're all just cogs in a big system we call the economy, we work for others just so we can get by while those in charge make the most money and work the least. The only way to get out of this is to either work for yourself, so self employment, or make your own company and get people to work for you. So it's not really about having us make them money, we're already doing that as both workers and consumers, it's more aboyt making up pay them even more money. So all in all, huge scam, screw capitalism and big corpos.
The Zucker himself probably just wanted all your data, know what you are doing in the game and how you react physically and emotionally etc to form profiles of you to a bigger extent and also be able to change your virtual world himself to affect you, exactly like Facebook. Nothing new. Once a zucker always a zucker.
Use Fake account, buy games on steam
Slightly disagreed here. Mark has always remained a front runner in the direction of future. Orkut had the entire market share when FB started. Nobody thought Whatsapp was worth 19B when Zuk purchased it. I am a strong believer that the existing userbase and metrics of software and hardware sales won't bother them much. They will have significant piece of this pie in coming time.
Maybe. Will be interesting to see how Meta's strategy changes. I think if their launch presentation was all about collaboration that included the major players in the Metaverse today, instead of showing just their vision with their tools, it would have been a lot more credible (similar to how they launched Libra with partnerships with Visa, Mastercard, eBay, Stripe, etc). That was a very credible launch for a FB crypto - even though it hit roadblocks after that.
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 True that..If they can somehow be inclusive/collaborative towards the already flourishing meta cities, its a game changer...even though they can still do without them.
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 The meta’s metaverse is mostly targeted to people in the late 20’s to 50’s where most of Meta’s consumers are. The young will probably not hope in, let see.
Thanks everyone for the comments. There's a few that point out Mark is saying Meta wants to work with everyone to connect the worlds together. That might be true. But the way Meta has been presented isn't to be just one player in the metaverse, but to be the main player that brings all the others together. That's where they've already lost, as it's highly unlikely they'll be able to achieve that.
The more established Metaverse companies like Unity, Unreal and Nvidia are already looking to help build a common standard that lets us travel between worlds. And they are all against Facebook being a part of it. As Ryan Gill says in this article "The open metaverse is created and owned by all of us. The metaverse that Mark Zuckerberg and his company want is created by everybody but owned by them." www.foxbusiness.com/politics/plenty-pitfalls-mark-zuckerbergs-metaverse-plan
And as Tim Sweeney said back in 2016 "This Metaverse is going to be far more pervasive and powerful than anything else. If one central company gains control of this, they will become more powerful than any government and be a god on Earth."
This video does a great job explaining the weird vibe from the Meta announcement even better - "Something isn't right about Meta's Metaverse" th-cam.com/video/YYf9465wtXg/w-d-xo.html
(And for the best explanation of the progress towards a common standard for the Metaverse, read Matthew Ball's article here "Interchange Tools + Standards and the Metaverse" www.matthewball.vc/all/interchangemetaverse
Facebook has a Huge following of many communities which allows them to be a centralised location of the meta verse. With a commune approach to the meta verse the power is through people.
A defi coin already connects all metaverse worlds on defi. Maybe Zuck will buy them.
@@DJ-Illuminate what coin is it?
Very enlightening video, I'll definately check these next links. Just wanted to toss a penny in the pot... "the main player that brings all the others together".... Yeah, as if a worker on the factory floor making footballs, can step up to suggest they can manage the whole of NFL. Um, you missed the train kid. oops.
I can’t believe I’m about to defend Meta here, but I find this video rather disingenuous to be honest.
First of all, the Metaverse is not here already. We have a few individual siloed off game worlds with no connection to any of the others. That’s not a Metaverse. We’re not anywhere close to the interconnected and omnipresent virtual future we all want to see.
Second, I find it really silly to equate any kind of flatscreen content with the Metaverse. Without VR and AR, all you have is basically the Internet. Flatscreen content completely lacks the immersion of what is usually meant by the term Metaverse.
Third, Meta as a company has done some amazing things for Virtual Reality since their acquisition of Oculus. I am pretty sure that this push of theirs towards making the Metaverse a reality will help bring it about much sooner than it otherwise would have been here. And that’s a good thing.
I am not a big fan of Meta’s business practices, and I think it’s really important that other companies play a huge role here as well to make sure we end up with an uncentralised and free Metaverse that is not controlled by any one entity. But credit where credit is due. Ignoring the role that Meta is likely to play in the development of the Metaverse over the next few years is either dishonest or ignorant.
I really want the technology and internet to utilised something useful instead of just stupid games. People are dying during the pandemic and it would be nice if the coporations actually does anything really useful for societies like creating a new potential real money earning job in virtual world with not too much restriction or control. Internet is beyond online gaming in potential that it's an universe within itself
Ever heard of NFTs? They're what will make people money in the metaverse. And the metaverse is not just about gaming.
Felt this and honestly nfts are really not the greatest and people have been using them to steal rights of other people's artwork
@@supernana7263 nfts are pointless no offense to you
@@loser4182 sure bro sure
why?
As a software engineer who has specialized in virtual reality and has been working in this industry for some time, I have to disagree with the majority of this video.
First, "Look at all these virtual worlds that already exist, Mark is late", virtual worlds are not a metaverse. Games that take you into virtual worlds, are not a metaverse. The metaverse is the connective tissue that allow you to navigate among many virtual worlds. Therefore, Mark is not late, but rather him creating an ecosystem for these virtual worlds is him actually creating the metaverse. I would go one step further and say that a metaverse requires a certain level of immersion that is not possible with 2D screens and requires spatial computing to relocate the user in the virtual world, either through virtual reality or augmented reality.
Second, "Mark isn't even making tools to create virtual worlds in so he's not even working on the metaverse". This is false. Meta has integration SDK's for both Unreal and Unity that allow developers to create games that use Meta's hardware. These are real tools that are required for building these virtual worlds. The app store, oculus dashboard, and app labs are also a set of tools developers use to distribute and manage their virtual worlds. Tools that are essential to the creation of a metaverse.
Last, "The quest holds very little market share of virtual world access compared to mobile devices and PC's", again a virtual world is not the metaverse. Compelling virtual worlds must exist before the metaverse, because the metaverse is simply a mechanism to tie all these worlds together. If these worlds did not exist there would be nothing to tie together. Having hardware that one day can access the metaverse is crucial to building up the right types of worlds that have the right type of engagements to be useful in our lives. And while Quest may hold a low market share of overall personal computing devices, the market share it holds over virtual reality is enormous.
This entire video seems to have some resentment towards Meta and just seems very biased and uninformed about what the definition and objectives of the metaverse are.
i was so confused about every point made in this video. Thanks for putting this into words
@@julieismeok Snap. I am confused as hell but I won't be selling my Meta shares anytime soon.
Yea, tying em all together, so it implies that you will be acces all those gaming worlds too through the metaverse
Facebook is trying to stay relevant, like a grandpa who is trying to be a TikTok influencer. Nothing wrong with that, just that the odds are overwhelmingly against them.
Years ago I used to spend hours daily on Facebook products, now I hardly spend a few of minutes once a week just to check my old posts. It can only be down hill from here for Facebook/Meta whatever name they choose, imo.
Facebook is big in Africa and other developing regions outside American and Europe, they should have rather doubled down on cheaper low tech opportunities for emerging nations.
Either way Mark stills owns Instagram and WhatsApp and he will just acquire whatever Meta companies he needs to be a huge player. If not Facebook just another Zuck company
But how are you saying that its gonna be downhill for Facebook from now on? On the basis of what exactly. Pls elaborate
Grandpas on tiktok own though
@@BarbaraWalters_ Grow up, Barbara from your childish teenage mentality.
VR is necessary for the Metaverse to go to a different level. Smart phones and monitor screens aren’t going to cut it.
I agree. But that will take time and Facebook will have lost the hardware war before then. By the time we are all experiencing the Metaverse with smart glasses and holograms, all the best ones won't be from Facebook any more than the best smartphones weren't from the early bestselling phone makers, Blackberry and Motorola, the early leaders in mobiles. And access wasn't from the early leaders of Internet's social & email networks, AOL and Compuserve. All those companies got stuck in old paradigms of charge-and-control based on their early monopoly positions. No different to Facebook today.
Consoles != headsets. Oculus is still on the front and will stay there.
We need to create like a giant simulator that can allow for movements like running and jumping flying etc. Something that can fit in a room and is super high tech. Billions would have to go into development of something like that. Even headsets isn't going to be enough to get it to the degree that Zuckerberg was talking about in his announcement video. I agree with the concept of the Metaverse , it would be spectacular to immerse yourself in different worlds.
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 in smartphone companies lost to software and not the hardware. By the the tech that can stop other companies to build chips is owned by tsmc and samsung and both of them are happy to serve any customer.
@@ArturoGarzaID We already have stuff to allow for full movement with an Oculus headset. You don't need a big simulator; your in-real-life environment can be mapped and synchronized with the VR you see through the headset so you don't bump into things while moving. The future isn't going to be one where we all have these giant full room size dedicated simulator decks, that's dumb.
If the "metaverse" has to become real i really think it should stay in the gaming side of things thats all i'll say
Even if it doesn’t I probably will.
@@risen3031 Agreed
There will never be any such thing as zero control!
Devil's advocate here: does Mark ever explicitly (or implicitly) state that he envisions Meta being the sole/primary metaverse out there?
I think the gig is that the Metaverse will be built around standards that all companies can tie into. Currently, there are plenty of accounts on other platforms that exist, but those platforms are not built to work together as Meta is designing. So when people realize that they cannot take their avatars that they create in Roblox or wherever into the many worlds that are built with cohesive standards they will probably consider moving at some point. Meta is talking about a cohesive network of platforms which takes a lot to create so I dont think the current user accounts or headset races will really matter at that time. So even though Minecraft has like 600 million users they will probably need to use some kind of Meta platform to integrate their users into everything else.
They already are, hopefully humanity will decide that we don’t want to be owned by big companies
@@phantomdevil6834 I totally agree bro. I honestly wish the community would come together and make it happen, because with Meta and Microsoft there’s probably a 200% chance that censorship will a part of the deal. Not saying that pure anarchy would be a good idea, but getting people reported for silly things shouldn’t be a part of a true metaverse.
@@ChaosElement Who cares, pure anarchy in made up world means next to nothing..
@@damianpos8832 Depends, in a situation where people need to make payments or purchase things and there’s open source everywhere then nothing will function enough to be enjoyed. Open source doesn’t necessarily need to equate to freedom of speech and such. Yes we should be able to do and say what we want , but letting everyone implement whatever they want in regards to code anonymously may create instability for everyone …”it may”
"billions of players are investing in playing video games day and night".
That's not a good way to evolution.
That was A LOT of angles I haddnt really looked at, I'm a quest developer, and I've got a couple of IPs that are at the fringe of metaverse, (virtual night clubs and vrchat style games) so I'm knee deep on this personally so these points were all super valuable to note.
The only thing I'd suggest differently is that Facebook are bringing to the table, a mass market device, that puts people in virtual reality that's where the real metaverse is I believe (longer term) but 2d meta experiences are still Gunna be prevalant for a good while yet.
And Facebook are looking to find a way to bridge these 60 million games, seamlessly.
I've got multiple VR games that I would love to transfer players between, but there is no tech to allow that currently.
A Quest Developer - That's so cool. I studied as an Architect in Uni, but if I was going to Uni today I'd definitely choose being a World Builder instead!
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 it is crazy. CRAZY. I am just putting on my headset for a new build I have created, that is a high poly archviz model home, with a pool and live radio streaming in, with (AI) avatars partying all around me and it's bordering on Photorealism. It's so mind blowing.

A metaverse where everything is integrated and everyone can contribute to it is an impossibility. If anyone can make anything on it there is no value to anything. If anyone can make anything every time 2 or more people come together you would have to download avatars, mods, etc. the other people have. With connecting millions of people even if each person only had 1 MB (Which is a real low ball number.) of custom content that is a TB for every million people. You would be spending all your time buffering every time someone adds something. If people don't have the exact same hardware some added software might not be compatible with some hardware. Some mods might not be compatible with other mods causing crashes.
Someone has to be in control to keep thing on a manageable level and prevent grieving. A place where everyone can do what they want is only positively viable if everyone in it is trustworthy. So I think Facebook is trustworthy? That would be a BIG FAT NO! If there is a lot of money/power involved no one is trustworthy.
Dreaming is fine, computer games are dreams, but if you lose yourself in a dream because you are hiding from reality, reality will become your nightmare. Fix your reality if you can, dream to give yourself the strength to do so, and don't become someone's boogie man.
I disagree. If the thing has to be designed and made, even virtually, it's worth something because of the time and labor it took to make it. This is how it works in the real world.
@@DoubleplusUngoodthinkful What I was referring to was if people could create anything, it's like playing the game with cheat codes, devaluing the accomplishments that they perform in the game. I wasn't referring to the game or metaverse itself but the experience would be devalued if everything is allowed. Which would cause people to not stick with it in the long term. Of course there will always be people that would be involved with it for the same reason people play Minecraft creative. But the community size would be limited. I myself love games that have a high amount of freedom but not unlimited freedom. Maybe possible to give freedom only to the creators of a game, only within their game within the metaverse. But I think I'm getting too far into the details than necessary for the abstract concept of the metaverse. My vision of the concept itself may be different from yours and truthfully I haven't given it very deep thoughts.
@@siral2000 Ok, I get that. Thanks for the clarification. Cheers!
It's only a matter of time before two or three companies owns all of the metaverse.
I see a lot of confusion about the Metaverse. All it is, is the VR internet. We’ll have games and entertainment accessible in virtual reality worlds. Basically, nothing impressive. People still need to eat, reproduce, and experience the outside world. What the metaverse fulfills is the socializing need. But then again, you can just go outside and meet your friends. In my opinion, the metaverse is way too overhyped, it will be quite popular and will have it own community (like Twitter Kpop stans) but it’s popularity will never reach the majority of people. I know I sound conservative, but 2d is just way more convenient.
Young people see the world differently. Open your mind

Thanks GIdeon. And yes will be interesting to see how TH-cam will look like in the Metaverse...
I don't think metaverse applies to traditional flat monitor work and gaming. The entire connect presentation was about doing stuff in AR and VR. Flat-screen content is going to be a thing of the past or at the very least something you watch while you're already being immersed in a VR or AR world.
Yes eventually we'll all experience it in VR/AR. But it's an easy switch when the 3D worlds are already created and the devices catch up. And they won't be headsets. They'll be smart glasses and holograms. Just like anyone trying to make the phones in the early days of mobile (like Motorola and Blackberry) all went out of business while those who focused at building the communities and highest value platforms waited for the smart phones to arrive.
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 good points I see what you mean, and nice video as well, very thought-provoking content and I appreciate the response.
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 I don't want any company to own the metaverse, and I honestly don't believe any will. With that being said, I think you are underestimating what Meta is doing. They already know everything you mentioned in your comment. They know that the road to mass adoption (that is, the next big thing after smartphones) is small factor see through AR glasses. That's why all actors who appeared during the showcases of Meta's vision for the future of the metaverse at their Connect event were wearing normal looking glasses, not VR headsets. VR/XR headsets are nothing but stepping stones on the road for developing both the technology and the ecosystem necessary to achieve their true goal. Apple knows it too and apparently are planning to release a highend XR headset as soon as next year, with the AR glasses rumored to still be 5+ years away.
Meta is not competing with Unity/Unreal (providers of the building blocks) nor with any single application / virtual world (providers of business cases). Their dream is to become to VR/XR what Apple and Google are to mobile phones (providers of the real state where all the business are located): Hardware + software ecosystem (iOS/Android and App Store/Google Play). With that in mind, they should not be compared to Motorola or Blackberry that either did not have this whole ecosystem vision or didn't focus on the consumer market at large, they should be compared to how iOS with it's App Store and Android with it's Google Play Store, the two first consumer oriented mobile platforms, are still the dominant ones to this date. Their goal right now is to get their headset in as many peoples hands as possible to lock them in their platform before the likes of Apple and Google enter this market having the advantage of already owning consolidated platforms.

I DONT THINK so vr give alot of people headaches i tried ti for 10 mins not for me give me my flat screen
If you took the time to fully watch Meta's video on making the Metaverse you'd understand that Meta's Horizon is only a fraction of the metaverse. So saying Meta's Horizion needs to be open source is like saying everyone should be able to do what they want in a building.
Think of the Metaverse like Earth. Horizon will effectively be a country where the rules of facebook apply. You can then teleport to another country for example Decentraland.
Mark has already said that a lot of this is fully theoretical and even said that if you jump from one verse to the other, you will need to be able to carry all your purchases over to each country.
For people saying that there's going to be ads and stuff within the Metaverse... you are correct. Just like billboards and posters in the real world.
It’s gonna be awful the meta verse is, soon we’ll own nothing in real life
@@phantomdevil6834 saying this think that meta is waste of time on internet
Bruh the Ocean is thirty
Meta is next internet for next generation
We are the next gen Bommer faking fun of meta while still using mobile
Just like today boomer are making fun of internet while also wasting their time in telivision
All the kids can stay on the Mets verse while we take over the reality that drives it. Remember the possibilities are endless until someone disconnects the the power…
It's sad how much time we choose to waste online instead of socializing, sitting in a cafe, going to the beach or for a walk, volunteer, having real connections and emotions.
I wish we can but its COVID'S FAULT >:(
What people want is a virtual reality world where people can go and feel like they are inside a different or parallel world to their own! No more of that 2D crap
Yes, you right ✅️
But this is the beginning of it; need time to develop the necessary technology , whait 10-year, and you will see a big difference.
vr chat is already there.
People are dying inside as they leave the world of caring people to one of excitement.
Wait another few years
That's what I was thinking. He's talking about people "accessing the VR world on their phone or gaming station" and I'm like....that's not VR. That's playing pong 12.0.
Metaverse was accessible from Instagram and Facebook and with device then they could kill any competition. Instagram live metaverse video would be lit
Imagine your virtual life being better than your real life so you never log out ....that’s scary for ppl who deal with depression
Roblox, Fortnite and Minecraft: *I am 4 parallel universes ahead of you*
3:49 he talks about how a car maker who wants to make a car in the metaverse would not run ads and simply drop the car in the world in real time and people will be able to drive it. I understand this would not be possible in the 2d facebook we have now because your feed is mainly composed of content from people you follow and if you are not following a company, their product will not show up on your page. Does this imply that the meta verse will show you content outside of the people you follow (for any car company to drop their car in real time in the metaverse and for you to see it).
Lol he doesn't even know what he's talking about dude... most of the games and companies he mentioned are on web2 and not on a blockchain nore are the digital currencies real currencies unlike crypto currencies. Which is why your question only half makes sense. This video is more like false click bait
"Ready Player One" is an eye opener everyone has been wanting to make it become a reality to the world of Gamers. The Metaverse, hopefully will transform into that reality. With Facebook, now Meta joining the race, I am excited for what the developers can push. I'd say it's a win-win situation for all of us end users.
However, the sequel, ready player two is even more terrifing, and its a story of how anyone with centralised power will eventually turn into another zuckerberg.
It’s great if your a child. But as an adult, this is scary it will lead to people forgetting about reality and being incredibly poor in exchange of a fake make reality where they are entertained and become junkies of the virtual world. The good thing is the profit for independent artists. But bad for the average consumer that will be exploited by the companies
You can be poor as dirt living off government cheese forever but so long as you can jack into your VR headset and have internet you can be a God in your game which is a whole lot better than poor as dirt. Anyway that is how I interpreted Ready Player 1. So long as you are handed the means to enter the VR I can see a time where it makes no sense to put any more effort into your real life when you can put it into your VR life. again my interpretation of the movie. I did appreciate the ending where the VR world was shutdown for 1 or 2 days a week for real life to happen but I can totally see that lasting only a short time because real will be depressing after VR so you would only enter it long enough to eat a little and clean your self up a couple of times per day.
Bruh RPO was a dystopia. People were poor as dirt with no way of getting out of their situation due to a lack of motivation for change because everyone was caught up in this make believe world. As much as some may hate it parents are right when they tell you to turn off the tv and go outside. Furthermore, a Metaverse will only work to further degrade interpersonal interaction. Look at how social media is tearing apart society just imagine what a metaverse would do.
@@Zehahahaa Thank you for your take on the statement. However I think the excitement is about the concept of the Metaverse being the new technology where web 3.0 will play a greater part in how we surf stuff. The movie was taken as a reference for everyone to relate to the technology it introduced. Whether we like it or not, this is the new reality that is forthcoming. This should be supervised under a child's use but as adults, we do know how to use it responsibly and discipline ourselves. Unless of course, if you are a child, regulation is always an issue. About the movie and how the VR became an escape room to reality, that is out of our topic here. Ready Player One was a great movie, but what I want to point out here is the technology behind. Peace!
2.5 billion gamers online at any time?
The heck, that's about a third of the Earth's population, so that number is either really exagerated, either made up of a shit ton of bots
Believe it or not there’s already over 7 billion mobile users. Yes there’s duplicates but over 90% of the world own an internet connected phone. And there’s now 7.9 billion people in the world. But probably even more bots 🤖
lol mostly bots for sure, hardly even worth him mentioning that figure as genuine.
I don't think a lot of people are understanding what the metaverse actually is here. (I'm someone who actually works on one). What Facebook is trying to do is take the social experience of connecting with people from screens to the augmented world. This isn't to say they will have their own and sole meta, the one and onlyz this is just saying they're building a foundation for what they believe is the next step in allowing people to connect on a more personal level even when not in the same room. Basically a web based version of vr chat but now add in the space around you and have it also be fused with this augmented 3D world. Now there are a lot of ethical and moral issues that can arise from this. Some things I've specifically discussed with my team (I do not work with Facebook or meta) that definitely can attack your personal privacy. I'd love to talk about it more but yotube comments only have so many characters
Anything Mark Z is a part of, I want nothing to do with. He's a puke in my book!
I had no idea of the gaming world, or the metaverse. However, i am worried that such a substantial percentage of the people in the world are spending so much of their time in a fantasy world. Meanwhile, those who want to control the real world have fewer people who will even notice what is going on. Its like a bunch of people on a cruise ship so happy about the meals, entertainment, and meeting new people they didn't notice that a group has taken control of the radio room, and the engine room and is working on way laying the First Mate to seize control of the bridge. The passengers may be happy but the bad guys are taking control of the ship.
Thank you. This is great. Appreciate this perspective because right now the noise will get noisier until…
Thanks for being here!
OMG!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH. You are like the voice of God speaking to me right now. ALL of this is such good news (that Suckaburg won't have a monopoly on the metaverse). I'm not that big a fan of the concept, but could see myself getting into it to some degree in the future.
Great video, can you do a video focusing on the technology that will make AR work in the real world with a pair of normal glasses?
I could agree on everything else but the inclusion of crypto in games, it's a plague that will only feed the corporate greed
when it comes to actual vr users the virtual metaverse has been getting built for years in games like vr chat and neos vr. and none of us who play vr chat have any intention of switching to any meta software. the users are in control of the worlds in vr chat why the hell would we let mark take over.

Nah but for 😂
i watched mark's vid and theyre claiming that they'll help build the meta verse... but not own it.
i find it hard to believe that they're willing to spend so much and gain nothing. theres a catch, but the video doesnt tell.
So Oculus is my only headset and I cringe sometimes knowing that Facebook is its owner. However, I believe for now this a great and affordable headset to get more people engaged with VR. If Facebook can continue to please it's customers with great VR headsets and experiences, people will probably not care too much about them reimaging themselves as Meta. To my point, Facebook's announcement about becoming apart of (or creating a new) Metaverse is probably a necessary "push" to drive up the competition, which is good for balance and to not create monopolies, and it's also good because a multi-billion dollar company is setting the bar on how lucrative and profitable this world could be. Their announcement will get more companies and individuals interested in the Metaverse.
I'm excited and worried at the same time what this will do to the gaming world because I know companies/studios are trying to make metaverse focused games where players can earn crypto and NFTs for just playing, socializing and collecting items, but will they actually put gameplay and experiences first before $$$. I worry companies like EA (Electronic Arts) are going to join the Metaverse campaign and find ways to screw its customers for profits lol.
I think the moment PlayStation and Xbox package VR goggles / glasses with their consoles (which they will eventually), those with Sony or Microsoft will suddenly be 100x Oculus. Sony PlayStation VR is already far better than Oculus. Also when Apple Glasses arrive they will quickly eclipse all three. Looks like we’re a year away from that… www.google.com.sg/amp/s/www.cnet.com/google-amp/news/apple-vr-and-ar-headset-rumors-release-date-price-wi-fi-6-support-and-more/
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 Who will want to use these glasses for hours a day??? It's ludicrous. Imagine for lot of us it would be googles over prescription glasses? Anything strapped to my head will give me a headache. Go figure people struggling where they put their VR glasses as they do with their phones. Oh lord it's insanity. I think this will be a niche just for video gamers. For gamers this makes sense. But as a social media app that can attract adults nope.
@@mnmartin73 People will adapt as they always do. I wear glasses, but I don't use them when I have my headset on. Thing is full adoption wont come until there are normal work applications. Which means that those who work in remote jobs (desk-like jobs) will have to have practical use for them outside of "stand up meetings." Not talking niche jobs, but normal jobs.
I keep seeing 21 years saying they didnt even know about the metaverse while im 30 and didnt even know vr was that advanced i still thought it was clunky and unrobust im shook right now
And people laughed at the movie “Gamer” and how that movie concept was over blowing the addictiveness of Virtual gaming platforms!
It seems a little premature to say it's already lost. It's kind of new and might grow. Just sayin...
exactly.....it's like when some talking heads said the internet was just a fad....lol 😆
He is not saying the meta verse is lost he’s just saying Facebook can’t own it
This is the reason for the worker shortage. The adults now live rent free at their parents playing video games all day.
Sorry no there’s a worker shortage because people realized that they were paid more to stay home then companies will ask them to work they realize they were more valuable and companies still refuse to pay them for the work on top of so many companies getting PPP loans still why would they want to hire what do you think you see 15-year-olds hired everywhere because they’re the only idiots who work for nothing
If Zuckerberg can figure out a way to make the metaverse more enterprise and less of a gaming atmosphere, he’ll be on to something. His descriptions of the Meta platform also mentions “real work” taking place in this virtual world. And I heard that Microsoft will jump onboard with their Teams platform where a Teams meeting can be conducted with Avatars instead of the real person being included. I would love to put on a VR headset and get my work done by swishing and moving elements around in a virtual world instead of being glued to my computer and chair all day. And if big business can cut costs and achieve equal results for goods and services performed in a virtual world instead of traditional methods, then game on.
Congratulations on everyone who woke up to FB, can’t imagine believing anything is even remotely positive about them in this day and age. Going to love watching it turn into the next MySpace but even worse as people look back on MySpace with admiration of cool times with music. Great content, ignore the haters, they’re probably paid commenters.
Can we just clarify, the metaverse isn't a thing yet, it does not exist. Games like Roblox and Fortnite are not metaverses, as they are not Open Source, nor in VR. It's like talking about the internet in 1981. We aren't there yet and still have a way to go before we can even begin to think about it existing or who owns it. I think Meta will play a significant role, because they are developing purely for metaverse intentions, as apposed to other Centralized 2D games, but they will not own it because the entire point, is that it is community owned!
The lion kills the ox. Then the ox wakes up and smiles and shakes with the lion. “This will be fun” “do not break eye contact”
Personally I believe they are going to take huge chunk from the metaverse. These gaming companies may have the users for gaming but don’t have the dominance on social. There will be only a couple dominant social media metaverse worlds that combines our daily routines for all people and not just gamers. As soon as the hardware catches up that’s when things will really get interesting. Currently VR headsets are to big but so were mobile phones and AR glasses will probably start to become a thing when someone like apple release theirs.
Yes! Exactly my thought
And they can easily begin making that on their platforms.
Great insights Roger. I need to watch this again, probably a couple more times. I'm feeling so old 😃
Definitely great applicability here for education and work environments particularly in cross platform applications that don't necessarily require clunky headsets. MZ will endeavour to buy his way in by acquisitions as the horse has already bolted.
Yes agreed. Acquisition is the only way for Meta to catch up.
MZ dirty tactics will not work here
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 FORTNITE IS NOT A METAVERSE. A METAVERSE IS A WORLD IN VR
Please don't take this youtuber's video as fact. He misunderstands what it is. MMO games have nothing to do with the metaverse and companies like facebook are not trying to create it. They are simply trying to create the earliest content for it. In the same way, Amazon is not the internet, they are part of the internet. What facebook is trying to do with Meta is become a part of the metaverse and get there early.

I believe this video is missing the point to around the half point of the video-
With "the Metaverse" it's majorly mentioned in the context of virtual reality specifically.
While we do of course have the "Metaverse" in the digital sense, "Meta" (old, Facebook) is specifically trying to invest into the Virtual Reality side of it.
And theoretically they're too late for that too...
One of the biggest Metaverses there are currently in the VR space is "VRChat", of which the majority of players are using the Oculus vrheadsets, Valve headsets and Vive majorly.
Even though Microsoft has a decent amount of VR products (even though it's not really microsofts specifically), they're barely existent in most VR spaces and Meta indeed has a strong grasp on the VR market.
It will bring a lot of chaos you already see in 3am call of duty lobby's XD.
This was a really ignorant video with a lot of assumptions about mark zucky's plans for the metaverse. I've listened to his talks and his plan was never to OWN the entirety of the metaverse. He isn't an idiot. Of course he can't own the entire concept. You're creating strawmans for his views without any validity to your statements. We'll see if he's any richer in 10 years, which is highly likely. 😂
Lol
Because Zucky would NEVER lie about his true intentions
Very timely content Roger, thanks! I agree with your view it will not be one company to control it. Especially the meta crypto world is going very fast, way too fast. I just hope everything will stay decentralized as much as possible! Our ultimate chance to stay free from centralized control.
Yes I think it's too late for anyone to centralize it.
Most Important thing in Life here on Earth is to get Right with God, the Rest is Secondary. Please read the Gospel of John, it Explains who Jesus is and what He has done to Set Us Free from Our Sin. In Our Natural State we are Sinners and at Enmity with God, but through the Work of Jesus we can have a Relationship with God. Jesus took Our Rightful Punishment and Suffered and Died on the Cross, Resurrected on the Third Day and Defeated Death. All we have to do is Repent and Believe in Him and what He did with All Our Hearts and We are Forgiven. I was an Atheist for Most my Life so I Know this Might Sound Silly to you, but the Bible is Truth ; All the Correct Prophecy Proves it. Its the Word of God and it Also Shows How Jesus can Set us Free from Demonic Possession / Demonic Oppression. Demons Fear Jesus Christ, and Born Again Believers.

Very interesting analysis Roger. I’m not sure if I would write off Mark Z yet, I suspect they may end up buying out some of the competition.
I was about to say the same thing. To say a company still so big/globally influential has already lost is just absurd.
To me it’s not really a meta verse unless we have full view with goggles on so I disagree with you about just looking at a monitor
I get it as that's a common misconception. Metaverse is the 3D virtual world. Goggles to create a fully immersive experience is Virtual Reality. But they're not the same. You don't need VR to experience the Metaverse, and not everything in VR is an interactive 3D world (eg. watching a 360 video).
@@RogerJamesHamilton1 Isnt this a question of the definition of Metaverse"? To MZ its mostly about presence, being achieved by wearing googles, foreseeable more lightweight over time. Maybe the definition itself will need refinement over time ;-)
A true metaverse is either VR or AR, sure you might be able to interact with through ur phone or pc but, who wants to walk around the real world holding up there phone to interact with all the metaverse elements that will be everywhere. For eg. meta people at a concert only in visible with AR.
Perhaps this is an unpopular view but I wouldn't be so quick to bet against Zuck.
First, there is no better headset at that price point. Occulus is a game changer.
Second the numbers of people already on FB (fanatic fans) that will eventually adapt is higher than stated.
I agree. Just registered some jeans. Don't have to mine, just sell the tools. History repeats itself.
PSVR is the killer headset and with PSVR2 around the corner oculus doesn't have a chance.
"They were so busy seeing if they could, no one stopped and asked if they should."
A refreshing perspective. It's like a company renaming itself to "Music" and claiming that they will now introduce music into the world and be the hub of everything music related.

His "metaverse" its just VRchat with microtransactions xd
People used to think the Internet will be free and open. Now it is very closed.
I think the OP’s definition of metaverse is incorrect. The idea of metaverse a persistent digital universe where people can work/play/semi-physically interact inside persistent of worlds, avatars, items, currencies and IP/digital products, and certainly also has a VR/AR component. You can’t just say that anyone who has an online service with a large user-base is the metaverse, that’s just the internet.
As always in history with revolutionary ideas and technological or industrial innovation, the idea precedes the real world application by miles, the Metaverse in whatever capacity it evolves into should never become centralized around one overlord, we cannot underestimate Facebook (Meta) they've already changed the fabric of the internet forever, lets just hope moving forward we can all play nicely together.
Agree!
FB.. META.. will continue to make money the old fashion way , siphoning user data , monetize it to the pleasure of investors .. they are are sh$ting in their pants that this model is unsustainable when platforms starts offering users self sovereignty of their data and they will get paid for it . it will be game over especially for startup who wish to follow this old model less they change to the new one

Lets be real, the metaverse is the end of civilization as we know it. Sure it's fun at the start, but it ends in socially disconnected people living in tiny pods that never move their grossly fat carcasses from their lazy-boy recliner while they are strapped into VR playing whatever the current thing is.
Maybe its better for the environment, less cars, less planes, less garbage, etc. At least finally the wildlife can breathe.
