Brief:
Basically nothing changes because we are all just virtual characters. What we see and feel looks real to us but it's not actually real. Think of this world like a video game, there are players and they have surroundings, it can be mountains, trees, roads and all sorts of things. The surroundings in the game are a reality for the player (character in the game, think of it like mario having it's own brain), but only the world outside the game knows that it's all just virtual.
Deeper Context:
Consciousness is nothing but the electricity of the outer world. Everything exists in the game only till the electricity is running. If the electricity is cut off, the existence of the characters and everything inside the game simply disappears. This is also why a lot of people and spiritual ideologies suggest that everything is connected, the mountains the animals the humans and the soul, all of us are connected in some way. Because all of this exists on this running electricity of the outer world. Imagine if a character in a game has its own brain and it wishes to find the edge of this surroundings he is in, he obviously won't be able to find the edge because first it's not even real it's just virtual it's only real for him, second it's not in his capacity. The same happens when we try to find the edge of the universe. So when, a character in a game dies, nothing really changes because the world was already a virtual thing. The soul(existence of that character) simply disappears on the network.

@Oneofthestormboys Absolutely! It's just that it's not in our capacity to define the exact architecture.
