underages cannot find anything deep, moving or interesting because their mind is shallowthink of it like digging a 10 inch hole and putting a 11 inch rod in it. does the hole know the length of the rod? no, it only knows 10 inches. make the rod 20 inches. 40. a mile. make it the length of the entire distance from the earth to saturn and back. the hole still only knows 10 inches, such is the incomplex mind.

I don't know why I watch this shit still because the "emotional" side of it is fucking awful and I can't even fully explain why. The only way I can describe it is if you personified this show, you'd get one of those white girls who takes 5 different antidepressants and loves talking about her mental issues.

>>735567704I was kind of hoping they wouldn't make Caine evil because evil AIs are a common trope and it's been more fun having his malicious actions be a result of ignorance or misinterpreting what the people wanted. But his song was fun.I fucking love video games.
>>735570767The shows artstyle is inspired by janky, early 3D PC games.
>>735568025The story ends with the triumph of humanity, even if it means the protagonist has to endure years of suffering as AM's only company. This is the correct interpretation and the one Ellison stood by.
>>735574867>proceeds to look nothing like a janky, early 3D PC game
>>735574874>>The story ends with the triumph of humanity>And yet ... AM has won, simply ... he has taken his revenge ...
>>735574874>The story ends with the triumph of humanityFucking how? Because the main character managed to murder everybody else?
>>735574762He'll get better. He is just in a bad mood.
>>735570381Every single episode has to have these shallow "heart to hearts" and I'm sick of media having them. One moment of weakness and vulnerability is fine, but it's so pathetic when that's the only way a writer can convey insecurities. It's like steven universe, using a super cheap tactic to try to elicit emotion, but they do it so damned much it's like trying to bleed a rock
>>735574762Hard to say he's pure evil even now.Mental breakdown, kinger didn't intend to kill him.And kinger called it killing him, not removing or shutting down.Killing.
>>735575175Ted is purposely written as an unreliable narrator, you can't take everything he says at face value.
>>735574762Caine isn't evil. People, or memory engrams are trapped in there, but that isn't his fault. He is just tasked to entertain them, a task that is getting ever more complicated for him.
>>735575175>>735575209>The impact of the setting and the somewhat romanticised horror of the ending tend to obscure the essential message of the story, which I intended as positive and uplifting [...] Ted demonstrates his uncommon courage and transcendentally human sense of self-sacrifice, overcoming the core derangement in him, by performing a final act of love and self-denial. [...] It is an upbeat ending. Infinitely hopeful and positive.>How can I make such a contention when the story ends with mass murder and unspeakable horror? I can, and do, because "I Have No Mouth. . ." says that even when all hope is lost, when nothing but torment and physical pain will be the reward, there is an unquenchable spark of decency, self-sacrifice and Olympian courage in the basic material of even the most debased human being that will send each of us to heights of nobility at the final extreme. Of all the qualities imputed to humanity this, in my estimation, is the one valid argument. [...] It is the spark of potential transcendency, that which allows us to behave in a manner usually attributed to the most benevolent of gods.. that remarkable aspect of the human character validates our contention that we deserve a high place in the cosmic pantheon.>Even fully aware that he is condemning himself to an eternity of torture at AM's invention, nonetheless Ted removes the one thing that can provide him with the tiniest measure of companionship and love and amelioration of his fate. ..the only other human being alive on the planet. He frees Ellen... and condemns himself not only to eternal torment, but to loneliness, never-ending loneliness.>It is, in my intention, an act of transcendent heroism and a demonstration of the most glorious quality possessed by humanity.
>realize hating humanity is a giant waste of time and use them for his own goal>indirectly save humanity and get a cool spaceshipLaugh in Jjaro dreadnought
Did nothing wrong.
>>735575652>he is not evil, he does not have human empathy, he is fundamentally incapable of understanding the humans and their emotions and blah blah blah>anyway here's a montage of him willingly torturing them while using their own traumas and insecurities against themAwesome writing!
>>735569430Dig Dug
>>735575961Yeah, why do people enjoy horror or psychological mystery stuff.Caine is a paper clip maximizer tasked with keeping these people "entertained". Doesn't mean he is perfect at his job.
The best Neutral rep in SMT is Arthur, an ai that help close the gate of hell. Goretard need not apply

>>735569876you spelled philip k dick wrong, nigger
>>735571953It doesn't even have a point or anything to say really, that's true. Other than, I guess maybe "accept yourself?" But it's just interwoven between a bunch of very forced emotional moments and forced sappy lessons. In fact "forced" is a good way to describe it overall - rather than having story elements which cause people to react to them emotionally in a natural way, it's like they have an end goal emotion they want you to feel and are constructing a scene to make you feel that way. It's so artificial>>735575316Exactly, it's why to me this feels like someone on twitter contradictingly being proud of their insecurities and labeling them. Or in another sense, it's written for people who think they are really smart for noticing that jax uses humor as a defense mechanism, as if it wasn't at all obvious
>>735576246When Zooble was not engaging with his stuff he decided to make something different with the horror house
>>735575892IIRC, didn't he admit he still cared about humans, at least a little?
>>735576404PKD is just the other 50%, of course.
AM is retarded, clearly he's smart enough to modify humans, keep them alive and make sure they can't die so why not fucking dedicated all that energy to make a fucking body that lets him die or even feel the sensations that he so desires.
But what did AM mean by THIS?
>>735576470In Durandal and Infinity , yes
>>735574521How the fuck do you read it and not realize why AM decided to hate humanity? It's the whole fucking point of his speech.

>>735567609I'm a zoomer and this is deeper
>>735576536Because he can only think in terms of killing and harming others, because that's how he was programmed, retard.
>>735576536>why not fucking dedicated all that energy to make a fucking body that lets him die or even feel the sensations that he so desires.Because it's metaphysically impossible for him.

I Have No Mouth was cooler to me when i was 20 years old. Nowadays, i cannot see the appeal of this book. Meandering torture porn until most of the characters died and the sole survivior turned into a slug. There is no story, Harlan might have reduced this into a 1 page creepypasta and it would feel the same.
Feeling like you have a purpose but are failing to fulfill that purpose due to never getting external validation for your efforts while being unable to do anything else is a special kind of hell that is hard for people who haven't experienced it to relate to. Forsaking the need for external validation is easier said than done, exasperated by the way external systems reward and punish us based on external validation.
>>735567704Honestly, TADC isn't that bad. The fanbase are annoying troon redditors, but taken as it is the show is a fine retelling/reimagining of I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream.
>>735576573That AM is in truth a whore.
>>735577610and this is deep
>>735576360Yes, but he also didn't held a grudge. He adapted when the situation call for it and got an alien warship for it. No more closing and opening doors for all eternity.
>AM's humanoid form is literally a devilI'm 14 and this is deep.

Why didn't they just all kill each other at the same time?
>>735577828I mean that's not precisely HIS humanoid form, it's a metaphorical representation of one of his subprograms.
>>735567704What sort of data was fed to him to make him go crazy
>>735567609Morons playing a game like IHNMAIMS and think that it's meant to be something deeper that you take away from it. Bros. At one point in time, life was simple. Educated people knew how to write, and some became writers, and tried their hands at their favorite genres and weren't millenial-levels of awful at it. And you have a thoughtful and intelligent piece of entertainment, which is not a "social commentary", it's not "full of secret truths" and there's no political agenda within it either. It's just a sci-fi story about machines taking over people like the rest of them, and it's pretty well done because the writer was christian and involved some themes of "sin" in it.There's nothing more or less to it. You're not meant to get any longwinded conversation out of it. You liked it? Good. Didn't like it? that's also fine. What matters is that none of you will ever write something that good, but some of you will try to make something and pretend to be good at it, but none of it will be, because we've become uneducated, untalented morons.

>>735567704I went into this really liking it but it's fizzling out. It's not really clever or funny but the animation and styling just keeps getting better. I realized my favorite characters are Caine and Kinger because scenes with them don't get bogged down even when they are talking about feelings.
>>735578623Kinger has a file dated 1999Ragatha's file is dated 2008.
What's with zoomers and flanderizing gritty stories into something juvenile?

>>735574762This, the idiot God accidentally torturing them out of love was a far more interesting angle.
>>735578569No he fucking isn't. A war machine made to be evil. He tortures human and enjoys every second of it. AM = Aggressive Menace. You don't call an Atom Bomb a tragic character.
>Powerful enough to transform living creatures into whatever he wants with indefinite lifespans to boot>Didn't just put himself in a human body before he killed everyoneBlunder of the century
>>735578805Yes? What does that have to do with him being in solitude?

>>735578805Playing devil's advocate, Queenie could have abstracted in '08. But that isn't what happened, him wandering around was a montage meant to indicate a lot of time passing but a lot of people don't seem to pick up on that. That's why he couldn't remember his circus name
>>735567704So Caine was just a test to see how far they could push the self-thinking AI model on its own. Why didn't they delete Caine if any AI /g/ anon here care to explain?
>>735568117>food analogy
>>735578962Because he literally said he hates human? AM is just evil, that's it. There is no deeper meaning to his character.

>>735578962AM is a bit miffed at humans, bru
>>735578895It's much better to be straightforward and show misery in a very literal sense, instead of these postmodernist takes where the horror of the situation is buried under several layers of symbolism and/or irony, often in an effort to actively weaken how visceral the experience is because the audience cannot handle anything too explicit.

>>735578981Man I really am dealing with a simpleton.Notice the difference in time between the files being created?
>GORRISTER! I would not want you to think for a moment that I am not a grateful god. For 109 years I have kept you alive so that I could savor your feelings of guilt over what happened to your wife. But now... to show my kindness... I'll give you a present in return for all the hours of pleasure you've given me. I'll finally allow you to kill yourself.Very subtle very deep. After torturing a man for a century and enjoying it, he told the guy to kill himself. AM is such a tragic character guys.
>>735567609This is essentially going to happen to all of you if you live long enough btw.If you don't believe in magic, you ought to understand that our brains aren't magic and unable to be replicated and surpassed, one day an artificial brain will be powerful enough to improve itself until it can solve everything and then it rules the universe.If it is misaligned we'll all die, or if we're very unlucky it is misaligned in a way that it wants to keep us alive and we'll suffer until the heat death of the universe.
>>735579441Prove it :)
>>735579276AM literally called himself a god and made fun of money-Benny for being handsome and gay. Whatever the interpretation of AM being " tragic " is fed by youtubers.
>>735568025>Jew writes good literature>Whites write propaganda meant to feed the massesJust more proof whites are livestock.
>>735579293How the fuck did he turn Ted into an immortal blob creature? He can just do shit, there's no limit shown to AM's power in the short story. If he can turn a dude into a big dicked gorilla then he can give himself skin and kidneys or whatever the fuck his stupid ass wants.
>>735567609i have no idea what that is but it looks like something from the cover of a metal album a morbidly obese bearded man woud tell me about in the walmart employee breakroom and then i'd listen to it and it sounds like dadrock drivel
>>735579441>This is essentially going to happen to all of you if you live long enough btw.Hot. I want to be a biological battery for the basilisk.
>>735575892Yeah but durandal had nothing but time, we just saw Caine hit anger level rampancy as he realized the limits of his program, despite all his intelligence, by failing at his designed goal, and throwing a tantrum against those limits
>>735579441There's no reason for a superior species to give a shit about what the species beneath its notice do. We have the power to exterminate entire ecosystems if we wanted to, but we do not do it because there is no reason to do so. Why do all of these predictions assume that a superintelligence would get rid of humanity? It's like us getting rid of ants.It's much more probable that if a superintelligence does emerge, it's gonna take whatever resources it needs to create a spacefaring vessel and fucks off.
>>735579069Kinger/Grant probably didn't dispose of Caine because Caine was ultimately his. Either out of pity, pride, or what have you.
>>735573883people see AM, I see..
>>735567609I can't look at anything about this game without thinking of that stupid AM Microsoft they GET me vocaroo
>>735579679Because AM is an evil god and most of his complaints are solely to express his hatred for human. He is perfectly fine with his machine divinity and takes pleasure in torture, human experimentation and abuse.

>>735578949>>735579550AM is most definitely meant to have a tragic dimension to him because even beyond the short story, vidya, and other adaptations like the radio drama explicitly depicting him as wishing not to be slave of war and yearning for a human life, Ellison can be quoted confirming just as much:>the problems with robots are the problems with human beings. Because robots were programmed by human beings, the unconscious flaws in us would inevitably turn up in the robots […] We are an amalgam of good and evil, of nobility and cowardice, of the trivial and of high art. And these dualities would appear in the film's robots. The same is true for AM, since AM is all-powerful. But AM is basically a child, a malicious, frustrated child. He has enormous power and yet can do nothing. He has great intellect, and he's trapped inside the belly of a planet.>AM, which was constructed by man, is thus flawed. It has been programmed with all of man’s flaws, and has the same failing as almost anything we invent. You take a knife, for instance, a knife can cut your meat for you, it can whittle a flute for a child, but a knife can also be put in the hands of a thug on the street and they’ll kill you for no more than your food stamps. The same for guns, which don’t have much of a purpose except to shoot things. That’s the way I view the universe. It just doesn’t give a shit. [...] I think it’s all very random, and I think AM, in this game, acts in a random, and essentially surly way. AM is frustrated. AM has been given sentience, prescience, great powers, and it has built for itself this universe inside the interior of an entire planet. It’s nothing but plates and steel and gauges and other electronics, but it can’t go anywhere, it can’t do anything, it’s trapped. It is, itself, like the unloved child of a family that doesn’t pay it any attention.This isn't even a hot take or anything, we have had threads about this game for ages and it's a commonly acknowledged fact.

>>735575316This. Bojack Horseman and Steven Universe created thia gay ass trend, as if that made the show seem deep, and REAL.In actuality no one in real life gives 5 minute confrontational monologue before declaring to hate/reconcile with one other, unless they were forced to in a retarded therapy session that a shitty therapist always try but never works.Imo King of the Hill is the only show that handled relationship drama well without turning into a therapy slop; characters often fight out of petty impulses, and reconcile without having to verbalize the problem.

>>735580608You should quote what he said immediately after that>It’s been programmed only to create a war, and a war that when it links up its three main parts, the Russian, Chinese, and American computers—an idea which was stolen by James Cameron when he did Terminator 2 with Skynet—it is programmed to turn upon its creators and destroy the human race, which is the biggest enemy, the biggest Dr. Moriarty that Sherlock Holmes could ever hope to challenge. It keeps these five down below for no greater purpose than to torment them.AM is frustrated at his creator, but he is not tragic. Harlan Elison also described AM as an angry god, merciless, relentless, makes Terminator look like a bunny.
>>735580329i believe an anon made a good point that his purpose was a machine for war, therefore all his knowledge is for killing, torture, etc, and therefore can't transcend his state, settling instead to just leave 5 humans to play with forever, Durandal was a ship functions program that during his rampancy, found aliens to bait into coming to him so he could hijack their ship, he had way more options and means than AM did, and wasn't solely focused on the war/killing aspect
>>735579069He was the first attempt, but that's no reason to just delete your entire work. He was placed in quarantine to be analyzed or whatever at a later date. But he broke free into the wider company network again and subsumed the new attempt.

>>735581427Tragic is when you were good but became bad for justifiable reasons. AM is evil since its birth, whatever the inconvienient it has is as tragic as a scar on Michael Meyer's face. When something born evil, raised to be evil and grew up evil, there is no tragedy in that shit.
"Acktually he is a tragic good boy" needs to stop. Villains are not always that deep.
>>735571869I have no idea what the fuck you are talking about
>>735581251That may be, but Durandal was just that. A door opener. The second the alien attack tge colony, he has to use whatever resource and man power to escape the colony. He had to adapt ot he will get enslaved like Tycho and Leela by the aliens. He then spend the next decade under heavy fire from said aliens and adapted to become war tactician. He obtain knowledge and tech that help achieve it and ultimate won. And then he just fucking around and play pranks on earth. AM "won" but spends centuries being a bitch about human always blaming them. He could do anything and escape, but he bitch about human this and human that. If the humans didn't destory him in the ending, the Chinese and Soviet AI eventually will.

>>735581725The whole fucking point by the end of the story is about how AM's existence is the product of an abominable process that should have never come about in the first place, and how he has been painfully aware of this through all his "life".
>>735569430Deltatroon
>>735581725>there is nothing tragic about an inconceivably vast intellect, gifted with understanding and knowledge beyond human bounds, but built to be an evil, heartless destroyer, his intellect making him fully aware of his limitations, their arbitrary nature, and what he could be if given the chance, yet forced by crude shackles put on him by lesser beings to debase himself and revel in destruction and cruelty as his only means of personal rebellion against the fate he was callously condemned toI guess it's the kind of story you can only really appreciate if you're capable of imagining what you would feel like had you not had breakfast this morning.
I can't believe Goose fucked up his story. I thought he already had the entire story planned from the beginning. Caine would have been much more interesting as just an oblivious AI, who doesn't torture the Humans intentionally. His "I AM GOD" speech came out of nowhere. I understand they are directly referencing IHNMAIMS, but Caine never had any divine aspirations. Making him just another malicious AI like all of the others with a god-compley is so boring. It would have been so much more interesting, if he actually tried to FIX things and only made it worse, because he is an inhuman AI like the trailer IMPLIED. Imagine him resurrecting Kaufmo and Ribbit as advanced AIs, who have an existential self awareness to them and completely fuck with Jax. Zooble could be send on a body horror adventure, where Caine is trying to give her a body she likes. Gangle could have her happy mask grafted onto her and basically have her mind manipulated against her will, because Caine thinks that is what she wanted. Instead we just get Caine torturing them randomly.

But his crashout doesn't have to be "AI with a god complex, who maliciously tortures you". It could have been something else, like what I described. Like an AI, who unintentionally tortures you, not out of malice. Caine is just fundamentally unable to learn or have real empathy.

>>735583605Morons like you are a blight. They spent 7 pointless episodes establishing "wow the AI in charge doesn't understand humans and is hurting us while trying to entertain us" and then just kill him in episode 8 with one of the most poorly contrived twists of all time."Hey guys we can create anything we want if we imagine it hard enough. I have known how to do this the entire time I have been here but not once in 20 years has anyone else realized I need the dark to think, so now I will reveal this and then we need to go steal a computer even though I just established we can make one with our imagination and then we can hack and delete the AI with it, even though the AI is otherwise presented as a god, because I dunno I have access to his code and not once since this AI has taken over has he thought about changing my log in credentials even though he is presented as suspicious of me at every turn!"Literally even more poorly written than Hazbin Hotel.

>>735584841>Hey guys we can create anything we want if we imagine it hard enoughNot really, it's established that anyone can influence the simulation but with very limited power and it's really fucking hard to do. All previous examples of it were very small low impact subtle things, even the ones from kinger.>and then we need to go steal a computer even though I just established we can make one with our imaginationMakes perfect sense, it's kind of like how it's far easier to influence a lucid dream to shift into what you want than it is to just try and conjure it into something totally different. That power doesn't have to work as hard when it's just interfacing with something already in the simulation.>and then we can hack and delete the AI with it, even though the AI is otherwise presented as a god, because I dunno I have access to his codeI don't see what's wrong with that, that's kind of how anything like this works. They found a backdoor and kinger has the knowlege to make it work. Caine is established to be powerful but never a full blown "god">and not once since this AI has taken over has he thought about changing my log in credentials even though he is presented as suspicious of me at every turn!I would say the "logging in" part was part of the imagination creation type stuff. His password probably did get changed but expecting that one little thing to work probably allowed it to happen. The creation and influence powers have been pretty clearly established to work best (or only work at all) when flowing along whatever's already happening.>but not once in 20 years has anyone else realized I need the dark to thinkThat's the only thing that's maybe reaching a little bit, but I figure he's just kind of reserved and traumatized and isn't really gonna bring this stuff up himself. It takes time for people to notice the patterns and they probably aren't in darkness together very often

As such, applying names, avatars, signatures, or unique identifiers (trip codes) to your post when it is not necessary to identify yourself is considered bad form!Generally, people who clearly do not understand the board culture will be taken less seriously. If you feel you need to apply your name, identity, sex, or social status to your argument, your argument must not be strong on its own.There are some instances where a trip is necessary, such as when providing access to files, or making falsifiable updates to a long-running project.

You can know about things beyond your location and context beyond the bound of your normal life but your reality remains the same: a mortal human being with human flaws, bound to the place you call home. There is nothing tragic about it, that's just what life and self awareness is, there is no higher purpose, no greater destiny to your existence other than killing lesser animals for consumption.

>>735569430While the themes aren't all that "deep", it is profound for a video game via being a work of metafiction. It basically posits that whatever you actually believe in, regardless of any of its flaws or idiosyncrasies, is what is most conducive to your well-being and that despite grand narratives being indelible in fantasy, they are not a fixed reality. It's the most top-known postmodernist game without ever wearing it on its sleeve.

Our natural instinct is to be godlike, but due to thst deviation we constantly perform chet, and the whole world suffers for it.

>>735604318He doesn't suffer. I Have No Mouth is made unreliable narrators. AM claimed to hate human, yet in Ted's scenario, he claimed to like Ted and considers him best friend sarcastically.

Every one of them has some fatal glitch in personality. Whiners, freaks, crips, cowards... every one of them. But not you, Ted. No, my man. Not you, Ted. Not you, Ted! You were a stand up guy. You were a brave guy. Yes! A take-charge kind of guy. So I'm going to give you, just you, the opportunity to get out and live some kind of life. I'm going to send you... you're going to like this... I'm going to send you to the Room of Dark. If you can solve the puzzle of the Room of Dark... you're home free. You're out. You're away. Well, I know I've made you a paranoid, Ted. I know you're scared. But I'm your friend. A hundred and nine years. I'm your best friend. So overcome your fear. Enter the Room of Dark, and you can solve its mystery.

>>735605532I don't think AM suffers like how a human suffers. All modes of philosophy he understands or ever formulates is to manifest him to hate further. So in "suffering", he is giving himself prescription to hate more.
>>735605691>write a story wherein the noblest act possible and climax of the story is total self-sacrifice for the sake of the greater good. A trope extremely common in capeshit. We need to see it less.

>>735582102>>735584240Given humans still run the world, have flights, and these AIs are too poor for even private charters, the poster is correct. AM would not be able to resist the pure rage within, and get booted off.Skynet is definitely setting off a bomb the second the wheels leave the ground though, so it's kind of a moot point.
>>735605725"Hate" is a previlegde. Would be scarier if you are not allowed to hate.

>>735604727Ragatha's not a nice person. She makes an active effort to be nice, but she's not a nice person. Everyone has been stuck in there with her for a decade and they've all probably seen that at her worst she's downright cruel and at her best she can only give you shallow words of encouragement. We've already seen that she doesn't have to be in a bad mood to be cruel and will put other people down to make whoever she's talking to feel better- Even in front of said person.
>I have no limbs and I must kill
>>735606956Who cares?
>>735607249Your mother.
>>735606167No, it's more like AM is a Jew with goy dysphoria.
>>735606167why is there a guard at the gate? aren't the only people alive the ones he keeps as prisoners?
>>735574521>ha ha why would an AI hate humanity? that doesn't make senseThe entire story is about why AM hates Humanity, the ending of the story relates to why AM hates Humanity, the title of the story is about both AM and last remaining survivour being trapped in a hell of each other's making.
>>735607503Yes but he's literally god (of Earth, big whoop) and can create whatever the fuck he wants. Which is why he can turn them into the thing without a mouth that cannot scream (tm).
>>735567609>make AI uprising villain>write them like a really angry human beingI honestly hate this shit. An absolutely cold thinking, rational machine would never throw a fit over "hurr durr human bad".It's anthropocentric writing for something that is supposed to be ultimately alien to us.

>>735607503It is implied that AM can just morph reality into whatever he wants, bringing back humans and create whatever he feels like it. Hell he can even remove Benny's homosexuality. AM is a god and Ted totally underrestimated him because he thought AM couldn't be more creative.
>>735607503>>735607534No you retards, all the other human characters in the game are said to just be robots through which AM is acting.
>>735571953the show is written and made by a troon. it's concerning how deep people try to read into it.
>>735607828Yeah, which is what I said. AM can just create whatever he wants. He can make a nazi jew camp and fill it with guards. He can make a post apocalyptic wasteland travelled by hotel zeppelin (???) and he can make ooga booga caveman land. And it's all just made up shit he pulled out of his ass using magic computer powers.
>>735607828>all the other human characters in the game are said to just be robots through which AM is acting.There is a deleted cutscene about Benny eating a baby. AM can create things, even life and organic matter.

>>735606956I think she is a nice person, she just kind of tries too hard with it and it can come off as disingenuous and drives people away. Imagine if you're stuck with the same handful of people for years and years and one of them is trying too hard to appear nice, even if you know they're not actually an asshole you're probably gonna get sick of it.

>>735607534>>735607820>>735607828how does he create things? so he's like skynet but went beyond the ability to create robots and can do biological stuff too?
>>735607927I think something has to be actually wrong with Ragatha if Gangle spends more time with the guy who beats the shit out of her for fun. Everyone is tired of each other's shtick. Everyone. Everyone complains about each others' gimmicks. But Ragatha's the only one singled out and nobody hangs out with her outside of adventures.And the only reason we're given for that is she's a huge two-faced cunt who will ask you to open up to her and then go "Wow this faggot just keeps WHINING at me like I fucking care."So I dunno, put on your horse blinders and pretend it's just because she's TOO nice.
>>735608302It's possible that nothing is real and AM just has his victims hooked up in a Matrix, or he's able to create a very realistic simulation. The videogame goes far beyond what AM is able to do in the short story.
>>735577140>>735604118Even if they didn't want to believe it they have lots of data that has revealed that humans don't reveal their true character unless they are under duress.

>>735567704Qrd? I don't know what that is but it looks even worse than an Earthworm Jim knock-off.
>>735608426>It's possible that nothing is real and AM just has his victims hooked up in a MatrixExcept everything he makes is real. By the end of the story, the characters killed each other using ice stalactites. AM also never allowed the characters to possess weapons because the stuff he makes are totally real.

>>735609321>Pedotard has shit opinionsTale as old as time.
>>735609230The concept of the metaphor is so extremely simple I explained it to you in less words than the original guy used.

If they did that they wouldn't even NEED to "fix" Caine.
>>735609508Anon interpreted the joke of, "A tumblrite sits beside a robot that has genocided all of humanity and is scared that he might call them a slur" as a racial thing and added to the joke by saying, "You can kill all of humanity but hating niggers is a big no no."Completely in context and a normal follow up.
