thats the secret to everything. religion, enlightenment, loosh farming, reincarnation, all of it. it really is that simple and thats the "big secret" they want to keep from you so that you drive yourself insane.>our higher selves choose when they want to reincarnate.>you farm loosh while you are alive to fuel future reincarnation adventures.>you can pick branching paths for a new game+ experience or you can start a "start a new save file" to gain extra loosh."bUh tHaTs StIlL eViL oF mY hIgHeR sElF"Is it evil when you make chel go through portal 1? is it evil to make arthur morgan go through read dead 2? you are the avatar of your higher self. just shut up and enjoy the ride; the more experience and knowledge you gain, the more loosh you will farm for the afterlife.god told me this as i typed it so take it as you will
>>43020438God sees your soul. It watches you through your phone. Your experience is insignificant
>>43020438>Is it evil when you make chel go through portal 1?If you can show in any way that the software suffers, then yes - yes it is.
>>43020515this was a rhetorical question, so i understand it being confusing for the average 4chan user. I suggest googling "reading comprehension" to understand this advanced concept a little more
>>43020478This did nothing to address my post. thank you for the free bump ig.
>>43020530>this was a rhetorical questionNo it wasnt. It is the direct argument you are making, and the response is yes - even if this world is a game, whoever is ""playing" it is cruel and evil for making real beings inside it suffer.The video games we have do not have actual suffering inside them.If they did, playing them would be cruel and evil.
>>43020515Suffering itself is not evil but a neutral fact of material beings with nervous systems. Pointless suffering is evil. Pointlessness as a concept is an artifact of incomplete knowledge and vision. Faith is the salve for this. Apply it or don't.
>>43020515Don't tell me you're one of those pain = bad, pleasure = good faggots. Is working out inherently evil because it hurts and breaks down muscle fiber? Is feeding my 1 year old spinach and broccoli evil because ice cream and chocolate would be more pleasurable for him? What about a dentist removing rotten teeth? Quit being such a pussy
>>43020557>but a neutral fact of material beingsBut they put it in. Saying its a neutral fact suggests the creator of the material had no choice.In which case they arent a creator at all.If a person built a video game, they have the choice to put in suffering or not.And if they choose to do so, they are evil.>Pointless suffering is evil.It's all pointless.>an artifact of incomplete knowledge and visionSo by not giving us complete knowledge and vision, they are cruel and evil.
>>43020570>Is working out inherently evil because it hurts and breaks down muscle fiber?We HAVE to do damage to improve because those are the rules we are under.Whoever MADE those rules is evil, yes.WHY do we have to go through pain to get better?Who decided that?If they want us better, why not just HAVE us better? Why force suffering to improve?
>>43020570What is worse, anon? Hedonistic pleasure worshippers? Pain and pleasure worship as you describe? Or pure pain worship like the faggot david goggins?
>>43020535>>43020535>>43020535you wanted to pluck a cucumber
>>43020579>assuming things can be mechanically different from the way they are.You are a midwit.

>>43020594What proof do you have that they cant?The situation you are suggesting means these "higher selves" have no agency anyway, so not only are they not doing anything, there is no reason to consider anything they are doing as necessary or good or inevitable.We should hate these "higher selves" and want to destroy them and their cruel ways.
>>43020438Go find a dictionary.Look up "rouge".Look up "rogue".Your voyage of discovery has begun.
>>43020438It's only rougelike in the sense you have to be a rouge and rebel against yourself and what you're told. Because what you're told isn't the truth. Even in the religious scriptures. All the other nonsense you babble about is just made up bullshit to give meaning to something. To say all that crap just shows how attached to reality you really are so I doubt you really know anything about God beyond what you've read.
>>43020438There is no higher self. Its just you that forgot/is to focused. You are not separate to them nor are you under their control. You ARE them, you just aren't thinking about that right now.
>Diablo starts in a fucking middle of nowhere village with a couple thousand years of occultism beneath it >Diablo II starts in the Rogue campChecks out.
>>43020438I created videogames as a way of proving that Atheists were just as bankrupt as God. That they would instantly impart the same damage that God would given the opportunity upon a world or a person of their choice. It worked "like a charm".:)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxBa_kOv6hM
>>43020438>Is it evil when you make chel go through portal 1? is it evil to make arthur morgan go through read dead 2listen here, you turboretardfagnigger. those are not sentient entities. they actually don't exist at all. they don't actually think or feel anything. they have no mind. they're just graphics and sounds. the fact that you can't even understand this basic difference between real world people and videogame characters is at the same time horrifying and not surprising.
