Modeling Reality With Virtual Worlds

Virtual Worlds


Virtual world is the place people can put their ideas and thinking on the digital world.  There are massively multiplayer online who are created a personal avatar and simultaneously and independently explore the virtual world and interact and communicate with each other. Virtual world is in the 3D environment.
There are a lot of computer games are 3D virtual world games, such as Minecraft, League of Legends and much more on Second Life computer game company’s web.  Therefore, people would automatically think about more on 3D computer games when “virtual” appears to head.  In fact, there are good things and bad things about the virtual world we should think critically.

Pros:
·      Virtual world can be very creative for users to export the virtual world and explore the new area.
·      Users can be informed and gain knowledge by exploring virtual world, Such as “Avatar II: The Hospital”
In the virtual world, users can develop different  personality and any activities then the real world. User can learn to cooperate with teams.

·      Virtual world can be used to modeling and designing. Like game Minecraft.
·      Victual provides the new opportunities for business.
·      Victual world model can be used by defense purpose.
·      Victual world could be thinking like psychological healing spaces and healing people.

Cons:
·      Unrealistic
·      Addictive
·      Huge gaps between virtual world and real world
·      Virtual world being critical by money laundry and other online crimes.
·      Some new business base on virtual world failures.


In the future, I think virtual world could continue to grow and develop.  Because is the great tool modeling and help human real society development. Virtual world technologies have the great potential to develop the new business model and offers opportunities.

  1. I agree with you that virtual world is a great tool for society development. A lot of business had used virtual world to train employee to deal with real life scenarios. The hospital also uses virtual world to help nurses deal with patients.
