$1500 is a steep ask. What’s the battery life going to be like? A lot of people can’t wear those sets too long without getting motion sickness as well.

I guess, but there are reports that Meta's employee's don't even use the metaverse that they are building.



:dead:

This really could be a situation where so many resources and money get poured into a product that just doesn't work... and is not even close to being ready for years.
To add to this... some quotes here:

A key issue with Horizon’s development to date, according to Shah’s internal memos, is that the people building it inside Meta appear to not be using it that much. “For many of us, we don’t spend that much time in Horizon and our dogfooding dashboards show this pretty clearly,” he wrote to employees on September 15th. “Why is that? Why don’t we love the product we’ve built so much that we use it all the time? The simple truth is, if we don’t love it, how can we expect our users to love it?”

In a follow-up memo dated September 30th, Shah said that employees still weren’t using Horizon enough, writing that a plan was being made to “hold managers accountable” for having their teams use Horizon at least once a week. “Everyone in this organization should make it their mission to fall in love with Horizon Worlds. You can’t do that without using it. Get in there. Organize times to do it with your colleagues or friends, in both internal builds but also the public build so you can interact with our community.”

I work at a tech company, most people don't even turn their cameras on during remote calls ever. Imagine having to put on a damn headset just to hop in a meeting?

:mjlol:

Same. I'd say 6~7/10 people at my job cover their camera lenses because they don't want to be seen. Strapping this shyt to their face will be a hard sell.
