Many gamers will recognize this world.
I recognize it! It is from one of my favorite games and I definitely would love to live in it.
But I am going to choose the world I was creating for a computer game I wanted to make when I was 12. It is a fantasy world similar to ours, but with magic and technology being commonplace. And dragons, elves, intelligent magitek robots, tree-people, werewolves, physical gods and superheroes (or as much of a superhero as somebody can be in a world where the average person can burn down a tree with a wave of their hand). The world had a science fiction backstory (which, to my surprise, is very similar to the backstory of the world of Xenoblade, a game that came out in 2010).
My intention was to imagine what would happen if we lived in a world where magic and mythical creatures existed. As strange as it seems, the magitek robots, physical gods and superheroes were completely justified in the setting I was creating.

Sorry for this terrible joke, by the way.
