‘MMORPG’ as a metaverse.

Companies from all over the world are launching projects one after another under the name ‘metaverse’, but the reality is a deserted digital space with virtually no players. Rather than creating such a thing, wouldn't it be more popular to ‘metaverse’ an online game that already has a large number of players?

We therefore asked writer A, who is familiar with games and Web 3.0, and game developer B to discuss the theme of ‘MMORPGs as a metaverse’.

Many projects that are currently said to be metaverses are completely empty when you actually log in.

Mr A: This time, we invited people involved in online game development to discuss what they would do if they were to actually create a metaverse. Mr B: Thank you very much for your time.

Mr B: Thank you very much.

Mr A: The word ‘metaverse’ is used in a variety of ways, but the common denominator is ‘a place where many people do something in an online 3D digital space’.

However, the reality is that if there is no purpose for what you are doing or why you are gathering, people will not gather in the metaverse and the space will have no meaning. Many projects that are currently considered to be metaverses are completely empty when you actually log in.

Even if they say it's cutting-edge technology or that Facebook is seriously working on it, that's not a reason for people to gather.
