He is not some genius businessman, just merely lucky to be in the right place at the right time with the right tool back then. What you are seeing is his actual acumen. He is getting fleeced for low effort shit and everyone around him are too much of a yes-men to tell him otherwise.

you don't understand the metaverse until you've invested in it and are developing for it. I, too, thought vr and the metaverse was stupid but then enough people told me that the experiences they were having within it were incredible that I ended up buying a quest 2, setup a dedicated playspace, bought grips, a battery pack, third party facial interface and headstrap, a couple games and then started developing my own experiences. Bear in mind that I have many many years experience with 3d as tech person. Horizons Worlds is incredible, way way better than zoom and it can only improve.
Zucc is right to be persuing this. You just dont get it if you're looking at in 2D. Apple wants their own metaverse really really badly, and Zucc knows this so he wont let go.

I don't see with good eyes how this is a product meant for people to meet virtually, when there's already, you know, Reality.
It's like millenials are inventing a way to stay away from each other, when we are of a generation that's increasingly lonely, picrel. Zoomers are even worse

On a technical level, yes, I agree.
But it's corporate garbage made by someone who didn't give a shit about anything other than getting paid.
Cris is talentless and lazy, but you can ateast tell that his creations, crude as they are, mean something to him.
What I'm saying is that even Cris's hideous shit has more SOUL than this.
You *know* it does. Cris' terrible work is still uniquely Cris and it says something about him - even if what it says is that he's an autistic incel manchild weeaboo who will never get the athletic brown skinned girlfriend he craves - that's STILL saying SOMETHING about him.
All this work says about its creator is that they don't give a shit as long as they get paid.

Can't argue against that.
Something of note: The models on OP are way too similar to some stock 3D models I saw some years ago. I dare even say that all the corporats did was change some of the textures, if even that.

Metaverse might be the right play, but Zucker does not have anything to draw the masses in there.
You would need something absolutely massive to get people to buy your headset and flock into your virtual world. Some sort of persistent seamless mega world. Games, sex, interaction etc. I'm talking VRChat + GTA style shit, but on crack.
They have nothing. No good IP, no good games.. Just nothing.

No, you are dead wrong. Billions of people need to communicate with their families, friends, doctors, prospective future employers etc without having to buy a plane ticket and getting to visit only once every few years. People already communicate in a digital space, but its flawed - either digital text only with email or more likely text messages or zoom - flat, 2d, no prescence, no shared space. Meta realizes the potential and went all in. Apple is holding their cards close to their chest right now but from what ive read they want this space incredibly badly. But heres the thing - i dont really like Apple as a company nor do i think one company should control the future of tech

You don't understand how this works, do you?
It wasn't just someone. Likely a entire firm was paid a few million dollars to do this.
It's the exact same thing when a company redesigns its logo, only to arrive at the exact same thing just slightly different. It wasn't just done by a single guy, it was done by an entire firm and millions of dollars exchanged hands.
Companies and design are beyond fucking retarded when it comes to this shit.

Top retardation. There were numerous attempts of that going back to the fucking 90s and it failed every fucking time. Why? BECAUSE YOU CAN BUY SHIT WITH ONE CLICK INSTEAD OF HAVING TO VIRTUALLY CRAWL THROUGH SOME RETARDED FAGGOT 3D LABYRINTH TO PICK UP THE SHIT YOU WANT.

Why are artists on this site still surprised by this? Even when it doesn't flop, the reality of consumer demand and the general population's preferences at large are so far removed from the OCD perfectionist nitpicking mindset on this site. And I can bet alot of you have skeletons in your closet of taste irl that market research data mines take it into account and so the cycle continues.
I'll never forget passing off a head crop of Genji - Bedouin as my portfolio piece and told left and right "NGMI" and "NICE FULL SAIL SCHOOL PROJECT LOL." Crabs are easy to out. Just look at the anatomy thread.

I work as an "immersive" developer and I can tell you no one on my team actually gives a shit about the project, we just minimally do whatever the retarded execs want us to do, then we go home and work on our real pieces. I personally don't think the XR is the future, but it's good money for the time being (looks good on my resume too) so I don't give a shit. Meta's end product is a shame, since their hiring standard is actually quite high, so it's definitely Zucc and co. fucking with the lookdev. But hey, at least we're lowering the standards for you shmucks to enter the industry, so you're very welcome.

You filthy plebs don't understand anything. This is what professionals do. This is why they get paid and you don't. This is industry standard.
These people spend 200k on their education and more than 6 years of their lives just to get an opportunity to assist in the creation of these masterpieces.
All of you lack the talent and skill to produce anything that matches the industry.
Their budget on tools is higher than your budget on life. Grind some fucking fundies before you criticize the industry.

Carmack never said anything about Fortnite being a killer app (which its clearly not), he said to build some unknown app that is incredibly good. But, he has a history of pushing out major garbage and crying "but i'm only the tech guy"

Now that you mentioned it, has Carmack made anything good since Quake 3?
Doom 3 was forgettable. Rage was bad. VR is, yet again, imploding. I get the impression he's a pseud that lucked out once and has just been riding the wave, his latest foray into AI is comical when you remember the infamous "I don't know calculus" tweet.

Rage still had really good animation though.
Any time I see a game with 2 people standing still in front of each other like talking heads, I remember what we used to have with Rage and sigh. Games have "progressed" past that point, but developers still haven't seemed to figure out how to make dialogue between 2 characters interesting. Or at the very least they just don't care.
It's not the best by a long shot, but Rage still sticks clearly in my mind in regards to character animation. Mocapping everything was a mistake.

It does not prevent it from being presented in the most unappealing way possible. Do you really want people see you as a character from a free to play mobile game? Does it inspire you? Do you now want to buy "digital goods"?

It was such a bizarre thing to wake up to. It would have been bizarre even if I'd been forewarned, but waking up to that is something else entirely. No wonder the channel closed down.
