Fantasy is greatly emphasized in the video game world. Many include subterranean settings, the vocabulary of elves, wizards, goblins, magical swords, and follow a classic heroic journey. Video games enable players to create worlds where they are heroic, active, and respected. Many fantastic video games contain very suggestive violence as seen in the ''Grand Theft Auto'',''World of Warcraft'', and ''The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim''.
