Welcome to the real world

I love Julian’s Backwards Virtual Worlds article. It reminds me of other comparison exercises like the old What would it be like if life were a video game? Would the world slow down when too many moving objects were in viewing distance?

*ahem*

Following Julian’s formula of Reality compared to Virtual:

    In reality: Mounts, vehicles and air flight add significant superiority in combat situations.

    In virtual worlds: Mounts, vehicles and air flight apply combat reductions or remove combat ability altogether.

If you’ve got one of your own, I recommend adding it to Julian’s list.
