Mind blow
Do they use more than dark places in video games? Like if you are in dark room in the game, and you turn on a lamp in the game, are you using more electricity?
My guess is no but I am not a programmer or electrician nor a physicist.

Lamps in video games aren't real. It's the video game that's using the electricity.
