    A video game is not a reality. It’s a past time. Watching a television show, reading a book or making some art is also not an alternate reality. You’re still in the same place.

      You have an avatar. You have a goal. You do stuff and try to get stuff and try to avoid stuff… You feel real emotions. That sure sounds like a reality.

          Of course not. It’s just a dream.

          Except when I’m in the dream. Then it seems like reality.

          So it depends on where I’m standing.
