Hey, the Zucc looks slightly less creepy as a VR puppet in that propaganda clip. I guess that's something.

For real, though. All of the marketing is "it's coming, it will be everywhere" which makes it sound roughly as appealing and positive as Covid. What is supposed to be the upside to the proles that are being pressured to take this all in? No matter what I read about it, it reads like a threat more than a promise.

    I think they want us to think that it'll be like the Oasis from Ready Player One where you can do literally anything and be whatever you want. Shoot zombies one minute and fuck your anime waifus the next. Imo the promises are purposely vague so you can interpret whatever you want into it and be hyped purely thanks to wishful thinking, we've seen how effective that strategy has proven to be recently with the whole NFT bullshit where every project promises the moon.

    No idea what it's actually gonna be though.
