It was pretty cool. I went with friends, and we got very drunk on a drink called a Warp Core Breach and then did the experience. I remember being impressed at the pacing and the acting of the members running the ride.
This was during the Borg 4D period, and it was pretty novel for the time. A pain to get to from the strip, though, probably part of its undoing.
The users aren’t the value in reddit, it’s the content creators and savvy community members that respond to questions and leave useful content in their own right. Reddit lost a number of those, and those users are forming the nucleus of their demise.
I can see it help make reddit more mainstream, by attracting influencers. Imagine IG Influencers or Youtubers encouraging people to engage with them personally on reddit.
