CHAPTER

Exploring Simulation Theory and Consciousness

This chapter examines simulation theory, focusing on the distinction between non-player characters (NPCs) and player characters, and the implications for free will and autonomy. Through a discussion of consciousness and existential experiences, it draws parallels between gaming narratives and spiritual interpretations found in various religions. The chapter further explores the concept of life reviews after significant actions, likening them to immersive video game replays to understand the consequences of one's choices.
