I am quite sceptical about metaverse project because many project talk about is not good.
The only thing I remember thinking about the metaverse that was truly amazing was when the founder of Facebook wanted to create one.
And as long as i know metaverse project in recent years, my view is just scam project
I know so of the Metaverse projects that are impressive with good road map and white paper. I think you need to check other Metaverse projects since you had bad experience with the wrong ones. I'm not trying to confuse you but their are many mataverse projects that are pretty cool and have impressive community and team. I have tested some of their P2E games and they are impressive also.
Sometimes we would have made the worng decisions in the past and that does not mean that Metaverse is not a good option.
