Okay, awesome.

And to be fair, I purchased a MetaVR headset and played some games on there over a Christmas break, you know, between Christmas and New Year's.

It was kind of fun.

Then it sat in my closet and I never used it for a couple of years.

So,

I think that was probably experience a lot of people had.

It's kind of a novelty.

It was kind of fun.

Also kind of gave you a headache and you kind of just moved on.

So I think because of that, the vision today of this huge metaverse, I mean, they were spending, you know, $10 billion, over $10 billion, I think a quarter or a year, like just absolutely astronomical amounts of money on this.

So according to CNBC, they've now made a whole bunch of cuts.

Over 1500 people have been let go.

And this is hitting a whole bunch of internal studios.

So there's Amateur Studios, which was working on Resident Evil 4 VR.

There's Twisted Pixel, which is kind of known for Marvel's Deadpool VR.

There's Sanzaru, who's the creative of Asgard's Wrath.

The VR fitness app Supernatural, which personally was one of my favorite when I had a VR headset.

It was actually acquired by Meta in 2023 for about $400 million dollars.

but they're going to stop producing any new content and they're just going to shift into maintenance mode.

So Camouflage, who's the studio behind Batman Arkham Shadow, has also seen a bunch of layoffs, according to GeekWire.
