Nope. Sorry dude but if I had to choose between the real world and a fictional world with adventure and limitless possibilities then i would immediately go for the fictional world
Dunno. The real world has adventures and possibilities-that-are-actually-about-as-limitless-as-typical-fantasy-settings.
Have you gone hang gliding?
Have you gone tomb raiding?
Have you hung out with komodo dragons or elephants or wild lions?
Have you purchased ship on a whim and figured out how repair it on your own?
Have you investigated the legend of the mole people in your local city and explored the tunnels beneath?
(If you've done things sorta kinda like that, kudos!)
In most fictional worlds magic can do literally anything. But technology has limits even in sci fi. So if you seriously choose tech over magic than you're delusional.
Huh. I don't think that's been true of any fantasy series I've read – magic usually has lots of limitations in the stories I've read, and often is less or comparably powerful to modern technology AFAICT.
Also, programming and the internet is just literally magic (down to the "if you learn someone's true name you gain power over them"), and if you're not inspired by it you probably wouldn't be inspired by "regular magic" if it were real.

I dunno man investigating the legend of the mole people was pretty fun. The main difference between it and fiction was that in fiction I'd be killing orcs, but if I wanted to kill people I'd just go war zones. (but, also, killing is actually bad and scary and I don't want it)
