Hi everyone!
For the people, that do not know, what Black Mirror is, it's a Netflix show about future technologies, often having no happy ending.
I recently watched the Episode "USS Callister" and it got me thinking.
There was this gaming system called "Infinity" where you you could pop something on your head and it sticks on it like a magnet. As soon as it's activated, it transports your subconscious fully into the game, therefore, you will become unconscious in real life. It is basically an upgrade of virtual reality, where you can fully feel, move around and exist in the game. The NPC's/other characters would be AI.
You "travel" between worlds by using a tablet in the episode, but I think depending on the game you are playing there are different ways to change that.
The graphics would look exactly like real life.
Personally, I always dreamed of becoming a footballer and with a device like that, it would almost be like playing in a real game in a real stadium, with thousands of fans, wouldn't it? I always wanted to experience what it would be like to score in front of 50.000 people.
I can imagine, that people would get addicted to this way too easily and neglect real life for the virtual one. And what if you play a horror game and then get permanently mentally damaged because it was too real?
How do you feel about this? Is this a real thing that can exist in the future? If yes, when? Is this the future of entertainment?
