Second Life CEO Ebbe Altberg speaks about their VR project, Sansar
Some interesting points:
Creating:
Things might be a bit technical at first given some of the complexities of 3d modeling in Autodesks May a (3D computer graphics software).However, everything afterward can be publishedwith simply a push of a button which -in doing so- includes a link that can be shared and explored by others.
My understanding is that they will branch out to other modeling software like Blender & that there will be building inworld as well.
Economy:
Compared to its cousin, land in Sansar will be cheaper and more abundant. However, instead of charging users upfront, Sansar will be making up the difference by capitalizing on the transactions made and taking asales tax of the platforms totalGDP. This strategy will allow for meaningful infrastructure expansion and lower the financial barrier to entry.
I'm hoping this is a good thing (since I like having a lot of land) but have no idea what this means to the retail side of my business or affordability in general.

It is acknowledged that content creation tools can be a barrier to adoption / use; it is therefore a goal with Sansar to make it easier to make things in Sansar than it is in Second Life
