I just spent ten minutes messing around. It reminds me of early VRML
stuff with better graphics, or those avatar chat systems that were out
in the mid-90s.
So far, it appears they value "pretty graphics" over "ease of use".
I've seen CAD programs with better interfaces.

Not bad, but it screams "game" to me.
