Meta’s newest update for Horizon Worlds, its 3D social network, adds some useful changes, but the big changes are also funny in some unintentional ways. The changes are detailed in the blog post about v133.

Meta’s newest update to Horizon Worlds, its 3D social network, adds some useful changes, but while reading the v133 patch notes, I chuckled more than once because of things Meta probably didn’t intend to be funny. Arguably the biggest addition is a new “time spent” feature. The dashboard shows you how much time you’ve put into Horizon Worlds over seven days and how that time is divided between playing in VR and on web / mobile.

I get why Meta is doing this; if I know an experience doesn’t have anyone in it, why would I want to play it? But not seeing a number isn’t exactly encouraging, either. Another new feature might genuinely be useful, but it’s mostly because it fixes the sometimes-poor etiquette of other players. When exploring experiences in Horizon Worlds, it’s not uncommon to hear other people’s microphones pick up ambient sounds around them, which can be distracting and annoying.
