Reality Bytes Epi #11 Meta Horizon Worlds End/Is AI taking Our Jobs

About this episode

Eric, Todd, and Skeeva dive back into AI while tackling two big questions: are we really saying goodbye to Meta Horizon Worlds, and does ARC Raiders have staying power? After a self-aware "cavalcade of errors" opening, Skeeva reports in on the Pokémon GO Kalos Tour and the eye-opening stat that the Pokémon IP out-earns Disney.

The AR glasses thread runs strong, with the crew declaring it "the year of the glasses" and Todd sharing his hands-on time with the Even Reality AR glasses, plus a fun aside on the Atari 2600 watch. The conversation gets reflective too, with the team trading imposter-syndrome stories, "pinch me" moments, and tales of how the show has changed lives, including a Myles Dyer airport encounter.

Gaming-wise they cover preorders for Wrath: Aeon of Ruin and a meaty ARC Raiders discussion before the headline topic: Meta's reported plans to sunset Horizon's VR ambitions and shift toward mobile, and what that signals for the platform's future. Todd also vents about his OpenClaw troubles. It's a candid, wide-ranging episode that balances industry news with genuine reflection on how far the crew has come.
