I was getting extremely frustrated at her inability to realize it’s no longer just a game, so I went back. Totally forgot she was playing an extremely realistic-looking VR game—of course she can’t tell the difference at face value. When you play a game that many times, everything becomes so familiar you stop thinking about anything except your objective. Anything new or different is just “interesting” (from experience). Also, because it’s VR, she was already mentally immersed from the start.
