runswithspatulas Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I wonder what it would be like to have games where you could just blow crap up or break things? You know for when you're mad or having an anxiety attack. I might find that therapeutic as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone who can't afford it right now, no matter how good the benefits looks like, it's not going to make any difference. Till I can afford to buy it, I'll keep my expectations at bay.

killamch89 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Gaming does tend to help you take your mind off reality - even for a temporary moment. That being said, just don't expect Meta's virtual worlds to be safe spaces. Don't know what I'm talking about? Check this out: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 When I play motoGp I usually feel in control of everything the fast cars gets to me, the racing Tracks and everything makes me want to continue playing for several hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the metaverse and other virtual worlds need to give children their own little area while adults their own. Or better yet, only friends and family can be a part of your metaverse. And to be honest, I don't think kids should be on these virtual worlds, at least not too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Flower. The game my better half finished (who is not a gamer) and I didn't. Meant to be a fully therapeutic and relaxing experience It really says something about what it's like to live with me... This game has literally no challenge and no story, but the task is meant to empty your mind to achieve pure ambiance and a feeling of pure peace. (Full disclaimer, we both played this game on PS3, but PS3 footage because of the way the copyright protection worked on that console looks like shit these days, so this is from somebody else's PS4 playthrough I found on YouTube) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the Metaverse has always been a rushed project and most other companies and consumers haven't bought into it so it's slowly dieing (I'm so glad). I didn't want Facebook to create it.
