I'm not going to fear an AI whose idea of "the world" is a computer game, an AI that isn't even aware of the existence of the real world, and isn't even aware of the existence of the set of real world actions.

I think, almost by definition, you won't be afraid of anything until it's already coming for you. By that time it will already have the capability to decide your future.

The thing is you are essentially making an unfalsifiable argument, invoking the existence of something that is merely imaginary.

I should have put "RTS" in quotes. I'm referring to the real world -- the original RTS.
