The inaugural fireside chat from Building the Metaverse, where I'll be speaking with thought-leaders, game-makers and metaverse-builders. Here, I spend over an hour with the legendary Raph Koster. Raph is a veteran game designer, entrepreneur and world builder. He was responsible for some of the most groundbreaking titles in online game history, from Ultima Online to Star Wars Galaxies to some of the earliest social network games. We talk about what the metaverse is, its origins, the future of virtual societies, distributed autonomous organizations (DAOs), interoperability and some of the key concepts that go all the way back to early multiuser dungeons (MUDs). We talk about Roblox, Minecraft, early virtual worlds like Second Life and everything in between... and do a bit of a slam against the "Ready Player One" version of the metaverse.
Connect with Raph at his blog or at his new company, ideas can be found...
