Quickie 023: What is Reality?

Have you ever asked yourself what reality really is? What if I said that you wouldn’t be able to distinguish it from a simulated experience because it felt so real? What about when the simulated experience was so good that it could awake true emotions in you. What if you could fall in love with the virtual characters within it? Does that make it any more real? Food for thought from the IMMERSION webcomic. Making of video is right here: https://youtu.be/LReFbZC4Tcc
