StaceyPowers Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Does anyone else feel like RL is starting to not only feel as dystopian as a lot of games, but look more and more like specific ones? In the US, I feel we’re heading toward The Outer Worlds, with a dash of Fallout, also seasoned with BioShock and BioShock Infinite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Social media feels increasingly like a Black Mirror episode mixed with Watch Dogs' surveillance themes. The gamification of everything - from fitness apps to work productivity - makes reality feel more artificial and manipulative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Yes, many people feel that real life is increasingly resembling dystopian game worlds, with growing social issues, environmental concerns, and political instability. It’s unsettling to see real events echo the themes of certain games, blurring the line between fiction and reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
