Modeling Reality with Virtual Worlds

Virtual worlds can be used in many different ways. One way is to make it become a simulation world. You would be able to do things in that world that you couldn't do in the real world like "fly". Virtual worlds are amazing because there is so much that you can customize. You can even create games and pretend that you're someone else. An example would be first person shooter games. You can pretend to be a soldier and shoot other players in the comfort of your own home. A con would be that some people take virtual worlds a little too seriously. Some people have difficulty finding the line between virtual and reality which can be dangerous in numerous ways. I think the future of VR is leaning towards 4D entertainment meaning that you would be able to use more than just your eyes. I think that people will be able to feel the recoil of a gun when shooting in a FPS game.

Most of the streams I watch is gaming related so the "vlogs" I plan on comparing will probably be ones of those who game.
