You misunderstand... I'm asking specifically about literature. Written books and short stories and the like. I bring up virtual worlds because I think that they're a really stupid contrivance for the cyberpunk genre. Most online interactions are in the form of text and books are only text. These cyberpunk novels that make up virtual worlds are just ONE indicator of the many ways in which I think modern literature sucks because it's beholden to cinema. Books are written in a "cinematic" way and not a "literary" way if you can grasp the concept.
