I always viewed escapism as meerely a place of greater possibilities. Video games and fantasy books are renown as the greatest conduits of escapism yet all the protagonist dreams don't come true unless they overcome the opposition, save the princess, and live happily ever after. We pattern the powers this wiki makes off the heroes that allows us to escape our reality and we just live in another world where we are stronger, faster, smarter, shoot energy blast, control the elements, teleport, and possess telekinesis/telepathy... and along that path comes the even more powerful villain. Our world is unconsciously defined by balance and realism to the point even escapism is just a structured journey through trials and tribulations to reach the end which almost every hero has to go through. And most escapist wants to be the hero.
