Welsh government criticized for spending taxpayer money on outdated metaverse platform reminiscent of PS2
The Welsh government reportedly invested £45,000 ($57,000) in a metaverse project that was criticized by users as ‘absolutely terrible’ and ‘a waste of taxpayers’ money’.
On May 13, the Welsh government announced that Wales was the first UK nation to enter the metaverse, introducing a 3D virtual experience showcasing the country’s attractions and landmarks.
Initially billed as a trial to reach a wider audience, the project commissioned by ‘Visit Wales’ faced immediate criticism for its poor-quality visuals, with some users comparing it to a ‘PS2 game’ or ‘Roblox’.
