Magic may well have been real. Healing crystals, shamanry, witchcraft, voodoo, things of this nature may have been real at one point and have since been patched out. These could have simply been glitches in the program.
We’ve all heard of glitches in games that can be exploited that eventually get patched. Could have been real.
I prefer to assume that we are simply the hallucinations of a brain floating through space. Which is more probable than everyone living in a simulation and a lot funnier to think about.
Until you name that “brain” Azatoth and everyone loses their minds.
How did the brain get into space?
It formed there.
Statistically speaking it is more likely that a single brain formed randomly and is hallucinating the existence of our lives than our species forming as we are through billions of years of evolution and existing on Earth.

I’m honestly charmed and impressed by how infuriatingly you applied that quote. Bravo!
Haha Thank you!
I prefer to think we’re simply the hallucinations of a possible brain, with no way to distinguish every possible brain that could exist from ‘real’ brains that exist in reality.
