crypto nonsense, self-own, lol 

There's an article floating around saying that Decentraland, one of the most prominent Web3 virtual worlds, only has an active daily user count of 38.

The PR team obviously went into spin mode, insisting that figure only counted unique wallets that interact with the underlying blockchain, and the actual number of daily users is ~8,000.

Battlefield 2042 is somewhat infamous for being incredibly broken, and missing several features that had been mainstays of the series up to now. (Including voice chat and a scoreboard)

One of the most-hyped "metaverse" experiences is only able to match the player count of one of the most disastrous AAA games in recent memory.
