Second Life?

Second Life is a video game that started in 2003, created by Linden Rereach Inc.

This is a live video game, so you can meet many people around the world, and this is like The Sims, because you have to make your own avatar and work to get money, buy food, houses, go to parties, reunions, you can marry etc. The money is REAL MONEY, so many people use this game as a way of living, and all they do is playing, there’s artist who earn money too, recording their music and uploading it to sell in the game.

This video game has a lot of critics because they say that with this people is losing their social life, and humans need to socialize, so as the name says it’s a real second life where you can be whatever you want, but I don’t really think that this is correct because we have to interact with real people, this is a great issue.
