    There’s no such thing as a true 1st person game.

    So, everything is a simulation? I mean, when I play cards with my friends it sure does seem like they’re right in front of me, across the table, cheating and eating my nachos.

    Isn’t the opposite true? How do people talk and experience games?

    “I played GTA and Michael drove a car off a bridge” Vs “I played GTA and I drove a car off a bridge”

    The same doesn’t hold true for other media: “I was watching/reading LoTR and Frodo walked to Mordor” vs “I was watching LoTR and I walked to Mordor”
