He also said, "“Gaming is just about the only industry that has the set of tools and skills needed for VR. At it’s core, VR is an extension of gaming,”

It's good to see he's humble about not knowing the future of VR and is focusing on the next steps that are practical for today.

Either narcissism or a deep sense of inadequacy...which may be the same thing. But, yeah, it doesn't sound like he understands his customers

Yeah, gaming is the only place with people with the skills... That's why Cory Ondrejka convinced Zuckerberg to pay him 2 billion. I think calling others narcissists reflects on what his own use would be....

When I objectively consider how much narcissism plays in my SL experience, I would have to say virtually nothing. Seriously. Unless it's narcissistic to make art and talk to your friends...

I must say however that I have known a few narcissists inside of Second Life. But they are a small minority.

Part of it has to do with how much one identifies with their avatar identity. Is it "hey look at me" or "hey look at what I made", etc.e

I kind of felt it as an infatuation with my avatar, which may be a bit neurotic, but not narcissistic. :-)
