What if real life was really a simulation, a GTA 500? That means that the game would be so hyper-realistic, that you are immersed in it, and when you start the game you are born. The whole simulation is supra-realistic, the textures, people's behavior, pain and that you can die from a blow etc. And maybe in the simulation you are 80 years old (or when you die) but when you leave minutes or hours have passed. You may think it's crazy, but think of it for a moment as if it could be real. If it were real, lives, morals, tastes... Absolutely everything would be worth nothing, you choose your character, your clothes, your physique (although as GTA 500, you can get old, have diseases, etc). Also, if it were real, what would there be outside of the simulation-game? What would we be like? Like the same simulation, but in real reality (outside the simulation-game)? For what purpose would people (or whatever entity we are) enter this simulation? Could we be non-physical entities and have we created the simulation-game to experiment with something new and tangible? Why exactly? Entertainment, escape from reality, being able to have vices or experiences that do not exist in reality? Many questions. But if there are now simulations such as GTA, augmented reality glasses, etc., something like this would not be so far-fetched. But now I'll leave it up to you to give your opinion.Postscript: What if the gods of religions are really the moderators/creators of the game-simulation, and by having memory erasation, we have unconsciously simulated worship for them (giving them different powers or aspects) in the simulation-game?
>>42720513What's more, and if for some reason robots became conscious, humans became extinct, and in the future robots created this simulation to experience what it would be like to be human (and we are just a simulation connected to the mind of the robot that really believes it is human but is the same robot?
would it matter?
>>42720581That's all you're going to say? What a shit of "mystery seekers uuuh".
>>42720613what? would you want to try to crash the process? for what reason? trust the higher layers put no weight into lower realms as much as you care about your gut bacteria
>>42720613It's not an interesting thought experiment. And it's not new or novel to our age either, like ancients asking, "What if the world is a painting? What if it is a dream?" It doesn't matter, you have to experience it no matter what the unknowable metaphysics happen to be. You're an idiot. If you have a way for us to gain control of this simulation, tell us. If not, fuck off.
>>42720513As Alan Watts would say, eventually you'd find yourself in a layer of the game right here: posting your question.
