No but undeniably the death of the metaverse is taking VR with it, once meta leaves the VR space it will be exclusively for enthusiasts and low quality indie games.
Comment on Looks Like We Can Finally Kiss the Metaverse Goodbye

Metaverse is not the same as VR.

Valve is releasing a new headset.

People here forget that a likely $700+ headset designed for streaming (let’s be honest we have no idea how many games will make native ports) is mostly gonna take off with VR enthusiasts. Like the Index this is an explicitly premium headset.

I literally never even heard of anything associated with Horizons that wasn’t a low-quality cashgrab or some kind of scam.

Disagree. Roblox and Fortnite metaverses will continue long after VR disappears.

Good. It’ll finally have a fighting chance to be great.

I guess VRChat will still exist but getting into VR will be very difficult

Metaverse is a (imo cringe) term for VR experiences in general, but in particular VR social experiences. Facebook changed their name to Meta specifically to try to brand themselves as the metaverse company, it wasn’t the other way around.
