Was this actually written by a 14 year old fedoralord? I've never seen a game get so angry for not agreeing with its edgy pseudo-nihilistic philosophy before.

>>722231294I don't even remember the game asking me any questions, I barely remember the story at all.One day you'll too learn not to take video game plots so seriously, even the top 1% ones are barely passable
>>722231448Imagine living your life in an unmemorable fog.
>>722231294You're not talking to "the game"You're talking to the in-universe character of the snake.You got filtered.Your version wouldn't have realised the simulation.
>>722231294Are you schizophrenic? How is a character in-game acting in-character somehow an equivalent to "game getting angry"?
>>722231294>game asks for my opinions on metaphysics, religion, the meaning of life, etc.>all available options are basic normie, rick and morty level of understanding>forced to give the "I don't know" answer
The biggest flaw is that I don't think the game takes enough in account that the player is aware he's playing a videogame and will act accordingly.If you tell a player not to do something that'll be the first thing he does regardless of however you dress the rest of the experience.
is there actually a cat in the game
>>722231904This guy actually wanted to discuss philosophy with a computer.
>>722231492I remember the gameplay, aka the thing that matters. If I want to experience a story worth remembering I'll read a book or at least watch a good movie, why would I bother paying attention to the D-tier plot in some puzzle game?
>>722231801Milton gets angry at you with almost any answer because it is a cynical AI, as Elohim says, it's the proverbial snakeTruth is, Milton was the archivist AI for mankind's history and thus it became kind of a cynical dick. But IIRC it also became afraid when you decide to step out of the simulation because it doesn't really know what would happen.
>>722232063ye
>>722232063nomaybe in the background of one of the ending cutscenes at best
>>722232074I discussed God with Chat-gpt and it worked out okay, I was very surprised.
>>722232193It went fine and then it started triggering a panic attack so I had to stop.
>>722231294kek, exactly the same happened to me
>>722231294The computer is an asshoel, its good writing that you hate him, you can BTFO out of him by the ending
>>722231448>even the top 1% ones are barely passableVidya stories are good and I am tired of pretending they are not because some /lit/ fags gaslit /v/
>>722233550What are some good vidya stories?
>>722231294Yes, it was made by the most dysgenic losers possible. That is why their puzzles are very simple and made for midwits to go YIPPEE DOPAMINE!>>722231448The first game you can completely ignore the story. The second game railroads you into watching and listening to a story that boils down to religion bad, you are dumb for holding any religious view.
>getting filtered by miltonAstonishing.
>>722233664Whatever the reply, you will dismiss itNot worth engaging with you
>>722231294Reminder that kitten died in an "accident" shortly after the photos were takenFucking scumbags
>>722234768I can't believe they swung it around by the tail and threw it into a wall and then the entire team took turns elbow dropping the comatose body while the director took a photo saying "this is us we did this the Talos Principle team", that was kind of fucked up.
>>722234093Not true, I wasn’t that anon, I just wanted to see what you would have said.I’ll post some>Lisa the painful>999>>TWEWY>Nine sols>Talos 1>Portal Now post yours
>>722231294I love this game and the philosophy is 0% of the reason why. Its a shame they leaned into the story so hard in the sequel.
>>722235107Is TWEWY that good, because it looks fucking miserable to play on an emulator. Like putting it on par with Nine Sols and LISA is a hell of a rec.
>>722235172It's miserable to play on a DS too and it only gets harder. But yeah, the original is really meant for the touch screen controls.
>>722235253Darn. Oh well. Maybe a rekit will be released someday.
>>722231294you have autism
>>722235281If I wanted to do it I'd just get a stylus and use a tablet as a touch screen or something, one hand for that and other for the keyboard should work alright.
>>722235172Play on a regular DS, get a 3DS/DSI and hack it
>>722231294I'm pretty sure the AI is a nigger loving communist. The way it tries to force you into giving answers like everyone is equal and you have to take care of everyone just reeks of the Jews.
>>722231294>Milton is an cynical nihilist that just disagrees with everything because he has to question everythinglmao he's a modern 4chan user and you can't sand that's literally you
>>722234960topkek
The whole point is that despite his games, cynicism and refusal to take anything on faith, in the end Milton choses to believe that there is a reality outside the simulation and hitches a ride on you.He eventually abandons his own argument through his actions, he acts on the things he claimed he had no reason to believe in.
>>722231448>One day you'll too learn not to take video game plots so seriously, even the top 1% ones are barely passableThis.
>>722231294I'm so fucking tired of the Chinese room argument in sci-fi slop. Fucking lazy writing that holds no substance.
>>722233892>religion bad, you are dumb for holding any religiousExplain how this is wrong without sounding like a butthurt fundieIn the era of the internet and SCIENCE I can't believe some people still hold religious views and not just for tradition's sake but as genuine faith?
Better off playing their other game, Serious Sam
>>722238097Sam is only fun in co-op and now that I'm 40 yo I don't have any gamer friends anymore, so that's a hard pass.
>>722238097Those games seriously suck.
>>722235305That just makes him even more right
I liked Talos Principle 2 a lot
>>722232063There is, but it's in a secret area so a lot of people miss it
>>722231294>TalosIs this an elder scrolls series game?
>>722238315I thought it was ok. I thought the question about technology facilitating our self destruction was interesting. I ended up choosing the Sphinx ending.
>>722238030Ok so science does NOT know where we come from. It does not have any answers based on physical evidence for the foundation of our world. Abiogenesis has no basis in reality and there is no physical proof for it. The reason evolution is a theory and not a law is specifically because it cannot pass the scientific method. It will not leave the hypothesis stage of the scientific method. Micro evolution is testable and results are provable. Meso and Macro evolution have no known ways to test for or against these concepts and are entirely in the realm of hypothetical "science". What the scientific community has done is use the test results for micro evolution and used it as a means to say macro evolution exists because this entirely unrelated concept (micro evolution) is slapped onto it. Even if you take Carbon dating and state it is factual, (it isn't Carbon values change during high or low atmospheric pressure and atmospheric pressure changes daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, etc) that can only; at maximum, be measured to 50,000 years. The reason why Carbon dating is a gold standard is simple, the other methods are so more extremely insane that they want to obscure it from the layman (carbon dating is pretty insane when you actually look at what they do with it, too). Explosion dating or what scientists have termed Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry. Occurs when "scientists" put tiny explosions in a concentrated area with the sample of the rock they intend to measure and then count the molecules that kick up after the explosion. So your people have made a new religion and have used poison to rip people from their religions. All the while, you are claiming that your beliefs aren't religious, but that they are grounded in science. Science is the observation and study of things. You cannot observe the history of humanity or the world with what we have currently. The technology is farcical.
>>722239802Not him>The reason evolution is a theory and not a law is specifically because it cannot pass the scientific method.Gravity is a "theory", retard.
>>722237929Blame the fact that anglo "philosophy" was for a long time dominated by sassy proto-reddit reductionism (often coupled with undue obsession with language) so they were in awe when someone wrote a low effort argument against it but with a fun story attached.
>>722239879Gravity absolutely cannot pass the scientific method either we barely know why that shit works, hell I'd say we really don't know at all, we just know the more mundane effects.
>>722240020It's like saying dreams are just a theory. Correct. We don't know why the fuck they happen. We just know they happen. Any explanation is going to just be a very flimsy theory for a very long time.
>>722239534I went for the whole hog and did all the golden door puzzles, saved mirana, saved athena, etc etcIt felt like with the way I played the game by releasing the results of the somnodrome to everyone and advocating that it's possible to expand without going rampant with it, the best ending was using the megastructure. It just felt a little to me that the arguments for not expanding relied on you thinking that if you even tried to expand, you'd 100% fuck it up and everything would go to shit and you can never escape what humanity did in the past
>>722231294Toxotransmosis moment
>>722231294I really love how Talos 2 gives you the option to be a retarded anti-progress deer-kneeling troglodyte even if it makes fun of you for doing so.
>play the byron DLC>full of messages of people bullying Athena>Yaqut has a single message and it's him basically saying I WANT TO FUCK YOUR DAUGHTERthat boy ain't right
>>722240716Yaqut has been horny for Miranda since he learned about her existence.
Talos 2 worth it?
>>722233550On the whole, nah, not really.Generally you're looking at a sub-par B movie, where the gameplay completely contradicts what the cutscenes tell you about your character.
>>722242421Not really, the story's worse, the setting is worse, the puzzles are worse, the only thing it has going for it are some interesting new tools but they're all super underused, plus it runs worse.
>>722242421Yeah, especially the DLC ("Into the Abyss"). The story can be a bit cringe but if you can look pass that, it's a neat puzzle game. The OST is also great like in the previous game. On sale, it's 100% worth it.
>>722242421Overall it's not as good but still fine. It make you lose time in between puzzle rooms whereas the first was arcadey in that you went from one puzzle to the next in 3 seconds. It's cheap now.
>>722231294>The Talos PrincipleI uninstalled this reddit game after it glazed "the Islamic golden age" as if it actually existed
