Earlier this week, Mark Zuckerberg Post a screenshot From his digital photo standing in front of the Eiffel Tower and what I think it’s supposed to be La Sagrada Familia As a way to announce the launch of Horizon Worlds in France and Spain. Unfortunately for him, the Internet more or less started immediately Withdrawal And the Meme – ifying Screenshot of the virtual reality platform – probably because the graphics were, As described by one Twitter useron a par with Teletubbies for PlayStation One.
Obviously, Zuckerberg has seen the memes and wants to tell you that Meta is working on graphics. On Friday, he Post some new screenshots On Facebook and Instagram, where he showcases a more life-like version of himself and an old-fashioned plaza. “Major updates to Horizon’s graphics and avatar coming soon,” he said, and promised to share more details at the upcoming Connect conference. (Meta did not immediately reply to the edgeTo comment on when that will be, but Happened last year held in October.)
As for the original screenshot, he admits, it’s not quite as attractive. “I know the photo I posted earlier this week was very basic – it was taken very quickly to celebrate the launch. The graphics at Horizon are capable of so much more – even on headphones,” he said. Personally, though, if my company is so Sinking billions In a digital world that isn’t quite sold on to many people, I’d probably avoid posting quick and dirty screenshots of it – especially if you’ve just announced a $100 price rises to Quest 2, making access to said virtual reality experience significantly more expensive. But that’s just me.
Meta isn’t the only one promising better graphics in an effort to entice people to join its metaverse. Last month, Roblox announced that it was also updating its traditional low-resolution graphics and blocks, and its product leader, Josh Anon, said its ultimate goal is to “replicate the real world” in meeting with protocol.
In the end, graphics are secondary to what you do with them. Even if the new Horizon Meta update upgrades the visuals to a level, for example, fortnite, it wouldn’t matter unless there was something interesting to see in his virtual worlds. This point is perfectly illustrated by This Tweet Dive into Zuckerberg’s original post:
“Extreme travel lover. Bacon fanatic. Troublemaker. Introvert. Passionate music fanatic.”
