3.75

A retro look at the future of VR under 1992’s lens of video tapes and CRT technology. 

Time spent in the Metaverse itself is sparse, but fun.

YT’s perspective is always fast-paced and enjoyable; Hiro’s pace is mostly fine but crashes to a halt with massive info dumps when talking with The Librarian.

Overall, the pace redeems itself enough in places, bringing the score to an average of 3.75.
