Розробка до відеоматеріалу How to destroy the world. Computer games (Як зруйнувати світ. Комп’ютерні ігри)

Greetings! Today on «How to destroy the world» we are looking at computer games (Здравствуйте! Сьогодні у передачі «Як зруйнувати мир» ми розглянемо комп’ютерні ігри). Щоб піти від грубої реальності (brutish reality), люди придумали (invented) комп’ютерні ігри, в яких багато бійок і веселощів, але ніхто не вмирає (all the fighting, all the fun, but none of the death). Однак люди не врахували, що в той час як всі щасливо живуть онлайн (everyone is living happily online), реальний світ може перестати існувати (the real world can cease to exist).
