Is the Universe a Roguelike? – What Up Science

IGN published this video item, entitled “Is the Universe a Roguelike? – What Up Science” – below is their description.

Nobel Laureate Sir Roger Penrose just went to the mat for a cyclical model of the Universe. That means this has all happened before and it will all happen again, including you reading this description of this video. Neat! But is it true? We’ll dig into that, trace the history of the cyclical concept of time, and make some spurious claims about whether we may or may not be living in a giant roguelike. It touches on games like Deathloop and 12 Minutes, shows like Rick and Morty and Futurama, and it’s all wrapped up in a neat little science news package by your humble host Mr. Michael Swaim.
