REALITY IS ONLY SKIN DEEP
Over 50 Million people log on to online role-playing games. Second Skin takes an
intimate, look at computer gamers whose lives have been transformed by the emerging,
hugely popular genre of computer games like World of Warcraft, Second Life, and
Everquest, which allow millions of users from around the world to simultaneously
interact in virtual spaces. We meet couples who have fallen in love without meeting,
disabled players whose lives have been given new purpose, Chinese gold-farming
sweatshop workers, wealthy online entrepreneurs, those struggling with addiction and
legendary guild leaders–all living in a world that doesn’t quite exist.
