We Might Be NPCs: Why Simulation Theory Is Probably True And How To Play Well
Take a mind-bending tour of one of the weirdest ideas to ever escape the the Simulation Hypothesis.
Is this a serious scientific possibility, or just another shiny gimmick pushed on us by tech companies hungry for the next big story? And why are so many people treating it like gospel?
Blending philosophy, physics, and a dash of pop culture, the book digs
How a sci-fi thought experiment got repackaged as “serious science.”
The strange parallels between video games, AI, and human consciousness.
Whether our memories, choices, and even physics itself might just be “rendered” like cutscenes.
How to keep your head straight (and maybe even live well) if reality turns out to be patchwork code.
It’s part satire, part serious inquiry, and all about the very modern weirdness of mistaking marketing for metaphysics.
If reality really is a simulation, then fine, play well. But if it’s not, maybe the bigger question is why we were so ready to believe it in the first place.
