What could it be? It’s the Japanese version of SecondLife: Meet-me.jp and it’s
a virtual Tokyo. Why so calm and boring? Well, we could say that the Japanese
people are better behaved than the westerners on SecondLife, or we could say that
the Japanese are much more conformists, they obediently “fall in line” with rules
and guidelines. Take your pick.
Meet-me’s virtual world will have shopping centers, malls, clubs, and plenty of
other social centers and social events.
On meet-me, the avatars are more round-ish, sort of cuddly compared to the sharp
almost dangerous looking angles of the avatars on SecondLife. The overall design
and functionality of meet-me will be totally controled by Transcosmos, the creating
firm. It will also be strictly policed with profanity filtering and no guns
allowed, no gambling. Basically, none of the stuff American love.
There will be no teletransportation, zapping avatars from one end to the other
on meet-me. Avatars can walk, ride a train, or cab, just like in real life
Tokyo.
Good Luck meet-me.jp!
