Blind Guardian – Otherland Lyrics 4 years ago
@[animi:37332] it does make a lot of sense...

"They rule the land
They're in command
They hold all strings in hand

They are invisible
Out of sight
They've designed a secret place to play their games
A world they're in control

Divine law
Divine law
" - either a game Master or a player starting a new game (in a procedural world or choosing their quests or generating a map). For an NPC or even a videogame controllable character, the player or game master is like a god...

"You're part of the game
You're slave to the grind" - what else would you do in an RPG videogame?? grinding some loot and XP!!

"Now I know you
Understand this world is not true
Nothing is real
Nothing at all
It's bits and pieces
We walk through" - NPC or the actual player character realizing they're actually in a virtual world... made of "bits": 0s and 1s...

"You've crossed the line
You've reached the end" - beating the final boss/finishing the last quest.... game over!

and as a bonus, the Elder Scrolls IV "Oblivion" was released before this song, so you could pretend this song is about TES: Oblivion (just for fun...)
