Phil Spencer Blasts Today’s Metaverse

Phil Spencer, head of Xbox at Microsoft, blasted today’s metaverse technology during the WSJ Live Convention, ugotavljanje that it was still unpolished.
About today’s metaverse, Spencer stated:
It’s a poorly built video game.
Many interpreted this statement as an indirect jab at Meta, which has been kritizirali before due to the poor graphics its flagship metaverse app Horizon Worlds presented compared to modern video games. Spencer elaborated later on his remarks, explaining that “video game creators have an amazing ability to build compelling worlds that we want to go spend time in; building a metaverse that’s like a living room is not how I want to spend my time.”
Vendar, Spencer does not count out the concept of the metaverse just yet. To the executive, it is still the early days of the industry, and he believes that the metaverse will evolve to become like current video games.
Spencer’s Previous Metaverse Criticism
