Looking at it from that view, we're just as likely to be a simulation as we are to have been created by God. I mean I'm a theist, but I don't see many huge differences except the cultural aspect where the theism/atheism debate is something most people have an emotional connection to.

A God, not being out for her own amusement, will likely create only one universe.

A player with a simulator will create dozens.

Why would that be? I see no reason why God might not create parallel universes

Electrical bill and GPU shortages in God’s reality could be a reason.
