It is easy to assume that Metaverse users are escaping reality. This may be one of the biggest misunderstandings of the Metaverse in history.
Take VRChat as an example. Its active users are doing intense socializing every night, joining all kinds of events, creating all kinds of things, and then going back to work the next day.
They are not passive consumers. They are active participants.
For many of them, VRChat is a second space in life, where they release their endless social energy and creative energy.
Think about how many people, after a full day of work, choose to spend their night not just watching videos, scrolling feeds, playing games alone, or consuming content passively, but actively socializing, performing, and creating.
That is when you realize how huge this misunderstanding really is.
