The metaverse is, of course, worthless without content and activities for people to engage in. The metaverse must be seen as a domain of wide-ranging economic opportunities for both the companies creating it and the companies and brands intending to expand their audience. Considering employment practices more broadly, the metaverse would likely offer new work opportunities or significantly transform existing ones. Notably, the metaverse could make the remote office a mainstay. The goal of the metaverse is to ultimately become an experience in every sense of the term, including in terms of physical sensing. For almost any type of metaverse use, the ability to touch and feel – haptic technology – is crucial. The social and persistent nature of the metaverse means that communication and interaction based around jointly frequented environments will be one of the main uses and purposes of the metaverse.
