Also metaverses do not typically have non-player characters (characters that are computer generated). The best known actualized example of a metaverse is probably Second Life but, it is by no means the only example. For example in World of WarCraft one of the quests is to battle Ragnoros—a type of fire god.

Karl sites statistics that "Seventy percent of the players of the social interaction game The Sims are women under twenty-five," and that the number one game from May 2004-July 2006 was Princess Fashion Boutique. But very few of them were/are active game players and, as a rule, did not consider themselves gamers. Of course they are.

Once inside the game, you create items to barter with other players, get a job and even find hidden treasures throughout the virtual world. It means we really need to understand these 3D online worlds because it is not just Second Life, many online worlds exist and if we let this technology pass us, then we will be playing catchup.

For me, ‘virtual worlds’ is a contentious term because it conjures the image of 3D graphics engines, Second Life and the rest of it. They have Aesthetics – a look, feel and touch which appeals to players and is appropriate to the context. This might mean a 3D virtual world, or it might mean a few scribbles on a piece of paper.
