Interesting thoughts, Essence. I understand what you mean. Tell me, what virtual worlds do you visit? I remember one called Palace Chat in the old days.
Relying back sorry took so long.
Back then to now
Mostly chat based on a web page most had to download show up as an app on computer or phone.
I saw that palace chat I used to play something close to that was on a Facebook app a long time ago and forgot the name. Sims online , Gala online , Imvu , Yoville , MallWorld , ItGirl , Fashion Designer ,MySpace also had some things you could play games on with friends , Bebo , Habbo Hotel , Stardoll , WizWoz , WeWorld , ChitChat City , Kaneva (Closed) , red light center , Utherverse , World of Warcraft , RedLightCenter List goes on.
I mostly go to second life after a long day to relax and let go of all things in real just space out. Like going into a looking glass mirror in Alice in Wonderful.
I am glad they have updated things and are still adding things. Second life is not really a game but like real life because you are bringing yourself there, you have your feelings and do things like real life experiences. The things you never did before you can do there.   Traveling and Flying , Skydiving , Surfing , Lay on the beach , Dancing shopping , Going to live Concert or music venue , Bistro . Horseback riding . You can have a home, have a family or get married , drive on route 66 the list goes on.  You make money by being a creator , building , decorator and so on.     I have been to the great wall of China and Paris  in my second life. People that build stuff like real things. I even went on the titanic. You be whoever you want in your second life. You dress how you want to go into character.  I do have a house on my own land and have about 3 houses and 2 other one at different locations.  Yes Their D/s also in sl but time place for that but not every goes just for that everyone of different backgrounds.  You don't really have to invest any real dollars. They have a lot of free stuff. They have games and places to make linden. For starters, best to try things out, get used to things that tell you want to do more before you even want to invest or just be a free bird.Â
This is what second life is

Wall Street Journal did a meeting podcast with the creator of sl it will mostly explain sl. Well second life was the first metaverse still is was way before FB but meta was name came later came from world of science fiction. Second life working on making new starter avatars so people can feel more confident when they in a new place.
