The world we perceive from each other is so different that it is sometimes even organized in ways that you can't even imagine.
Think of a metaphor that Pang Le made in "The Mob." If the objective world is compared to a perfect circle, then its shape will become an ellipse or even a line of varying degrees according to the angle of view we observe. But in fact, even people who really "see" the circle as a perfect circle just "think" that they have discovered the real world. No one can evaluate whether it is a "perfect circle" or not.
So instead of thinking hard about "how can we see a perfect circle", it is better to focus on your own perspective, focusing on the shape of the world "discovered" in your perspective, and how we are in such a The world goes to live to think. For ourselves, "reality" is more important than "reality".
Ben sees the world we haven't seen before. He is an "extremely sensitive person", that is to say, the world he observes with vision is more detailed and deeper than ours. And because of his "talent", it is difficult for him to naturally understand the way people get along with each other and the way of communication. Later, he found that he was more able to get along with the "world" in that "Overlord" game. He even tried to transform the actions in online games into the real world to make himself more natural. He photographs the way people communicate, learning like a tutorial. One-to-one correspondence between real scenes and characters in online games. However, it is so difficult to reconcile the two because Ben plays different roles in the two "worlds". In online games, he is so strong, he can do whatever he wants, and almost controls everything; while in the external "world", he is just An unknown person in this society, and regarded as a monster and mentally retarded.
It doesn't work to replace one world with another. Ben after countless setbacks, he thought of Log out---withdrawing from this "real world". During this period, he discovered another problem---because he has habitually used the Internet to guide his realistic actions. When he encounters a "command" that has never been encountered in real life At that time, he seemed at a loss. The way is to learn, and he even deliberately studied a "suicide guide" for this. In fact, the biggest doubt is the difference between "log out" in online games and actual "death".
When Ben was thinking about the way of death, his unexpected "talent" helped him. The only girl he could communicate with in online games wanted to help him and asked him out to meet. Although Ben was able to say "Hi" to the girl in the end (the movie had already hinted many times before giving a clear answer, the first time was when Ben's phone was robbed of his own "Vision" and let himself be When getting along with the real world, he found an unexpected "heal"), but he used his "talent" to "stay" the girl by his side forever.
The process of Ben communicating with the "girl" is actually a process of his own thinking, and in the end, he finally found a method consistent with the "Log out" in the game. His “Log out” does not need to be quit forever, and just like in the game, he can not only let his “Log out” reality affect other “game characters”, but he can also “Log in” again and continue his own game.
In fact, Ben’s level of thinking has reached such a recognition that neither the “online game world” nor the “real world” is an “ideal world”, and the real “world” only exists with what he organizes. In "Knowledge", in this "world" he created by himself, he can live freely and happily, and he does not want any other world to disturb him.
Ben got "redemption", and this relief came at the cost of "fragmenting" other worlds. Regarding "salvation", the movie also gave repeated hints, that is, the recurring cross. The Bible says that each of us should take up our cross. In fact, it means that our "salvation" can only be accomplished through our own efforts. That is to say, we must have a relationship with this reality, the "right circle" in our own way, and then organize our own "world" to allow ourselves to be contained in it.
It’s just that when we organize our own “world”, we don’t necessarily have to “separate” other worlds. Instead, we adopt an attitude of appreciation to observe the behavior of others, think about other people’s thinking, and then take those “insights”. They all choose to integrate into their own "world", so as to make their world fuller and more beautiful.
Please be more forgiving in the world.
Amen.
