Same. It was good but felt too real and so it hurt. It was like Inside a bit in that way. It just was too poignant and possible. Every single thing that happened felt incredibly probable. So it hurt. But I am glad I watched it.

Amen

I’m excited for this and also scared they’ll botch it

My unoriginal thought. We are already inside a very elaborate metaverse from conception.

The metaverse, like all internet things is never as great as reality, it doesn’t compare to actual sensory input, no matter what anyone says, just seeing a thing and hearing it will never compare to being truly immersed in it. The real world is better.

So, what if this is a metaverse, Plato was right all along, and a much more nifty reality than what we think we are in exists that’s even more fantastically immersive.

I loathe the idea of a metaverse, especially if Walmart has a hand in it.
