It appears Meta’s Horizon Worlds may literally and figuratively not have legs after all.

    Not them, but I think I’ve got a bead on it, assuming you treat it as a general concept and not a trademark:

    It’s basically the Platonic ideal of a game lobby. Kinda like what Miiverse was supposed to be, or Ready Player One. They were both after my time but I think maybe kinda like Club Penguin or Roblox? Like an overworld with a custom avatar that you can socialize in and sync into other apps or games together.

    It does seem basically inevitable, fast forward gaming 10 years and I’d be surprised if something like that wasn’t the norm.
