And on the flip side of things, the new Metaverse Tribune has chosen to cover WoW...I find that odd, because WoW is not a metaverse. Well...I guess it could potentially fall into the definition...but we all know what the term metaverse means. WoW is a MMORPG...not a metaverse.
Wiki says: The Metaverse is a virtual world, described in Neal Stephenson's 1992 science fiction novel Snow Crash, where humans, as avatars, interact with each other and software agents, in a three-dimensional space that uses the metaphor of the real world. The word metaverse is a compound of the words "meta" and "universe".
OK...so maybe it is a metaverse. But I'd be much more comfortable lumping into the MMORPG group. Leave metaverse to apps similar to
