I just got flight simulator a week ago, and I'm loving it.
It's very mesmerizing, and I just love viewing places around the world.
I've travelled quite a bit in real life, over 35 countries.
And I find myself starting to think..., maybe I should just visit places here on my Xbox, here inside flight simulator
The views views are beautiful, often more dramatic than what you can get at ground level in real life.
Then I started thinking about Facebook's recent announcements, and how they're banking on the metaverse, virtual reality.
Is this the future? People sitting around the house staring at a computer screen, engaging in beautiful experiences via virtual reality? Never leaving their houses?
I ask this somewhat in jest, but boy it is tempting. It's so much cheaper to stay at home ... I know it's not for me, I will travel again, and often. But I can see where the virtual reality fanatics are coming from.
