Everyone is talking about the "Metaverse", but few people really understand the "Metaverse".

——The sudden popularity of the metaverse has triggered the participation and learning of the public, so I am going to start from a macro perspective and gradually share the content on this aspect with you.

Everyone is talking about the "Metaverse", but few people really understand the "Metaverse".

Talking about Metaverse now is the same as talking about NFTs in the first half of the year. For example, I have been emphasizing one sentence in public in the first half of the year: "NFT is not just art", and Metaverse is not just chain games.

It can be seen that Metaverse is more out of the circle than NFT, and has attracted the intervention of traditional institutions. However, for the general public, it is still on the sidelines and confused.

From a logical point of view, the blockchain changes the trust relationship between people, while the metaverse changes the social relationship between people. It can be said that the metaverse is inseparable from the blockchain.

This logic is most appropriate for the current game industry, because when playing games, you don’t need to know who the other party is or which country they are in. As long as they interact well with each other in the game, a new type of game can be produced. Social relations, which is why the breaking point of the Metaverse started from the game.

I have been experiencing Roblox during this period of time. As the first listed company in the metaverse direction, the number of users and application experience are relatively complete. The combination of various pixelated game experiences and IP has created an unprecedented ecological connection.

Here, you can design a game by yourself, or participate in games designed by others, just like adobe provides design tools, and you can use these tools to create according to your own ideas.

The one I played more is "Squid Game", and the most authentic one is "123 Wooden Man".

Another one that I can recommend everyone to experience is MetaHuman Creator, an image creation engine developed by Epic Games (the game production team of Fortnite), which allowed me to create a brand new virtual character within ten minutes. I was blown away by the impact and ease of use.

The reason I discovered it was that many people were consulting me about metaverse and chain games, including people inside and outside the circle, and I wondered if I could use a virtual character to create my own game in the metaverse. What about dedicated IP? With this in mind, I searched a lot of videos and articles about MetaHuman Creator, only to find that it is an application that has been launched in April this year, and in this way I opened the door to a new world.

Since the creation of the character is a bit difficult for me, who has no programming foundation, so I still need some time to do research. I hope that one day tomorrow I can use this virtual character created by myself to broadcast live for everyone, and lead everyone to enter together. To the world of the Metaverse.

The above two applications have a relatively good user experience in the search process. They only need a computer and a mobile phone to use, and the visual sense is also good.

Well, I will write this sharing first. Since there are too many contents in the direction of the metaverse, I need to sort them out step by step. I will share some contents with you from time to time, so that everyone can understand. I will write what I understand in the next article What is the metaverse.
