A 1982 Pacifica Radio special amusingly titled Heavy Meta detailed the widespread popularity of Dungeons & Dragons throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s. The RPG was becoming referenced in popular culture more frequently, and the complement of games, films and cultural asides based on Dungeons & Dragons or similar fantasies, characters, and adventures became ubiquitous by the end of the 1980s.

Dungeons & Dragons exerted a deep and persistent impact on popular culture and helped to create much of online culture we know today, the term dungeon has since come to mean a virtual location where people can meet and collaborate. ‘Multi-user dungeons’ emerged throughout the 1970s and 1980s as a form of social networks or a social virtual reality. By creating a means for players to assemble and explore an imaginary world, the Dungeons & Dragons rules provided a transition from fantasy literary settings, such as those of author J. R. R. Tolkien, to fully virtual worlds.
