What are some good metaphysical, philosophical and existentialist games?
System Shock 2
cute
Metal Gear Solid
>>281943661
arcanum, planescape: torment, pathology
>>281943661
the talos principle
Xenogears
Anyone know the name of that one 3D puzzle game with cool paradoxes, was released a little while back.
>>281943661
How long would someone live for if you stripped them down to this instantly?
Like say you had some alien ray gun that evaporated skin, bone, organs, and left you like this. How long would it take to die?
>>281944181
Do you mean Pathologic?
>>281944210
this game completely passed me by but it looks really interesting. worth abuy?
>>281944817

but i wouldnt pay more 15 euro for that
Metal Gear Solid 2 is a good one.
>>281945079
>>281943661
>Raiden in MGS4.jpg
>>281943661
Metal Gear Solid 2 is philosophical and postmodern, if that's up your alley. Not sure if I would call it existential, but it's metaphysical insofar as it's, on a certain level, a game about games and how they interact with the player.
>>281944817
is that a wish Al or..?
>>281945079
actually that IS "you". All your thoughts, your feelings, your memories... technically your soul and personality.
>>281945094
>Plays Pathologic

Deus Ex you faggit.
Not very existentialist though.

It looks relatively simple.

I think it's been maybe a year since I saw this exact same post with this exact same image. This is just surreal. I mean we joke that the same exact threads are posted everyday, but I'm now seriously questioning whether the exact same posts are being made every year and I don't even notice it.

The dead fetuses were cool too. Just to see humans that small.
>>281943661
That model is really misleading in how stiff the brain and central nervous system is. It's rather delicate and floppy more it's kind of more like warming jello and extremely pliable. Just holding a brain in your hand will dent it from the weight alone and the nervous system is more like of loose skin and fat than something that looks plastic.
>>281945838
It's not a model. They use a special wax to make it rigid.
>>281945321
>actually that IS "you"

>>281945321
You're not even that. You're just the slow synapse impulses going between neurons.

>>281945745
Pls no bully
>>281944963
>>281945105
Why would you need lungs? All the parts that need oxygen are exposed and touching oxygen.
>>281945556
Because it looks simple. It's not. In the same way a car looks like some metal tossed on wheels and some seats inside. Simple enough but you're forgetting pretty much every single piece of mechanics or electronics in the thing.
You're seeing it from a non-microscopic view. The same way the brain looks like a lump of crumpled fat and your eyes don't see the individual neurons or interactions at that scale.

thats not how that works
>>281945321
What IS a man?
>>281946158
Really? Because the human body isn't built for blood to transport oxygen to the various organs and tissue? We can just absorb oxygen through our skin, now? Great news - the only way to suffocate a human is to drown them. In water that doesn't contain oxygen. I.e. not water.

The Talos principle
>>281946158
I seriously hope you are joking anon. Because I laughed.
When I was younger I'd always get really freaked out when I thought about that. The fact there's blood constantly moving in your body, organs constantly pumping, tones of things you had no idea where even there and that you can't control.
It was such a shocking experience learning that. It's like you were a robot and never knew it, then one day you look inside to find gears and circuits.
Did you ever think about what is happening under your skin when you take a step? Or squeeze something in your hands? Or even sit on your ass?
You are literally crushing veins and nerves.
>>281944817
>How long would someone live for if you stripped them down to this instantly?
About 560ms to 610ms on average. The time it takes that mess to hit the floor and then their brain is gone for good because it can't survive that fall without the arachnoid tissue or skull to protect it. Also those are organs, so if your ray gun destroyed organs it would destroy that as well.
>>281946505
>he can't absorb oxygen through his skin
>>281946158
>All the parts that need oxygen are exposed and touching oxygen.
I think your brain needs to touch some oxygen
>>281946856
Apparently there's some room that was mad that is the quietest place on the planet, it absorbs soundwaves or some shit.

So what you're saying is basically... That we're made ofNanomachines, son?
>>281947096
If you're quiet enough and pay attention you can hear and feel your blood flowing in your body while lying down in bed too. In some case you can also 'see' the effect of blood pumping in you as it affects your vision greater in some circumstances where your vision kind of shakes and releases.
>>281947239

>>281947465I saw you fuck up your first attempt at that, but im proud of you

>>281946981
But I can absorb nutrients through my rectum.
>>281943661
I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self aware; nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself. We are creatures that should not exist by natural law. We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, a secretion of sensory experience and feeling, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody’s nobody. I think the honorable thing for our species to do is deny our programming, stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction, one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.
>>281947263
Organic nanomachines... but yeah.

Life does not exist. You don't have a soul or spirit. You're nothing more than a bunch of atoms, no different than a quantum computer, and you'll stop existing when you die.
You are just a machine that will brake down one day -- is that so hard to understand? You have no value, worth, meaning, or anything. When you permanently die, it'll be as if you never existed on earth. So why does right or wrong against you matter in that sense? Emotions and feelings are an illusion created by your brain. You are a bunch of atoms, nothing more than that. Living/life do not exist in a physical sense, the atoms in your brain are arranged in such a way so you think that you are life or something else other than a bunch of atoms.
Just because humans have arbitrary categories and give those things that fall under those categories names, that doesn't make doing something that fall under those categories wrong or right. What is life and what isn't life is nothing more than your imagination. So if I "kill" "someone", it's only because you think that something is living. Also what you believe is right or wrong is all your imagination as well. There is no universal right or wrong to things, right or wrong doesn't physically exist like atoms do.
I am not "alive", I am just a bunch of atoms. Life doesn't exist, it is a term that is a secondary quality.
>mfw realizing the only thing keeping you alive is the heart
>somehow it fucking beats constantly without fail for 70+ years

There are more bacterial cells in your body currently than human cells. A lot of them could kill you if they wanted.

Our bodies truly are marvels to behold.
How long do you guys think it'll be until we can just put heads in jars, a la Futurama?
Like all you'd theoretically need to do is pump oxygenated blood in and out, and it would be able to survive, right? As long as the brain was getting its precious oxygen, what more do you need?

Not even that. Atoms aren't really 'a thing' either. It's an abstract structure for energy systems and that concept can be further broken as well into other fundamental particles.

Life is pointless, without purpose, meaning, and reason. There is absolutely no reason to live life. Your life will end and you will stop existing. Making up a reason for you to live is like making up a reason why a computer or rock should live. From a physical standpoint, you are no different than a rock. What you think is entirely based on the arrangement of molecules in your head. If you get Alzheimer's, you will forget things. There is nothing special about you or your mind. You will stop existing one day and you will never think, see, touch, taste, smell, or hear anything else ever again. It will be as if the big bang or this universe never occurred from your point of view.

This whole 'wow we are totally not real and just synapse responders' mentality is something you're meant to grow out of when you turn 18.

Theoretically and actually, yes. But it needs to be an advanced computer and it's not straight data mapping like ram. Our minds are basically dynamically compressed encrypted data. We link some neurons to other neurons and generate a whole webbed scheme of data interacting at the abstract and physical level. So it'd need to be able to store that map in a proper fashion and everyone's map is somewhat different.
With an even more complex system you wouldn't even need to emulate the brain, your essence is abstractable to code process. The biggest issue is your brain generally expects stimuli to work with though, so you'd need to be able to represent that as well to work with it.
>>281948537

Existentialism is the excuse people give that their made up beliefs such as reason/value/meaning are true from their perspective.
Just because someone believes that a point to life isn't objective does not mean that believing in a subjective reason for your life is not based on logical fallacies.
I'm glad that there is no afterlife. Everyone will go back to nothingness where they belong and it'll be as if the big bang accident never occurred. Things will go back to normal.

Additionally, they aren't really "organisms" anymore, as they no longer have the capacity to perform anywhere near complete metabolism on their own

work
learning and information storage
every environmental interaction
reproduction

certain parts of your brain are not even aware of the activity of other parts of your brain. Somehow there is a 'you' that can access things like memories, desires, or instincts, but those subcomponents are not you, nor are they even aware of themselves

If your head and internal organs (along with your entire spine, probably) was magically transmuted into a robit body specifically designed to house and keep these organs alive and all this highly-hypothetical science bullshit somehow makes it so you can just 'wake up' inside this body and have control of it... I'd imagine you'd be overwhelmed by an full-body phantom.. body syndrome.

That raises the question of "what is normal?"
Normal is a term given to what is most prominent.
As far as we know, life and existence is what is most prominent. What existed before existence? How much time passed before a new cycle was born?

Do you think someone with a mechanical body could feel phantom limb, except everywhere?
i heard people are 80% bacteria or something like that, so most of your body is not "you", if you don't count the bacteria as a part of "you".

>Pleasure feels good.
That is true by definition.
>Who cares.
Anyone responding to the question of what the reason of life is, because if it doesn't align with the facts, then they're wrong. Is pleasure awesome? Definitely. Is it the meaning to life? Unlikely since so much of life is unable to experience it or has limited experience of it and how life is potentially going to take a turn where pleasure isn't really a thing anymore, though it may gain it back... really we don't know and the answer sure as fuck isn't "we know because we like the idea of <something here>." For the same reason heaven doesn't exist just because the idea of people dying makes your grandmother sad.

Why not replace one part at a time? A hand here, a leg there. Eventually you'd just be a brain in a machine.And then the cleansing can begin.

A person with a mechanical limb depending on which way it was mechanical would feel exactly as it was programmed to feel. If it could feel limb the way organic people do, it would especially if it were comprised of nanomachines which in effect could emulate organic processes.

I disagree.
>>281950126
That's what I was getting at.
If you've experienced your entire life up until that point as a real human bean, and then just removed every inch of "body" and replaced it with machine, like Murphy from Robocop or some shit. They scrap his entire body except for his brain I think.
I'd imagine the feeling of full-body-phantom-limb would be fucking horrible.

I can hear my heart quite often and my chest hurts sometimes. Got it all checked out and the doctors couldn't figure out whats wrong with me. I'm chalking it down to costochondritis and anxiety. My anxiety has gotten better over the years, but knowing the organ systems in your body and how everything works is unsettling for me. Are bodies are so imperfect.

Houses highly sensitive nerves that transmit pleasure to the brain and promotes breeding.
Lubricates the glans preventing it from dryness, sensitivity loss, and produces highly nutritional smegma.
For sand niggers to snack on when they are tired of washing dust off their unwashed cocks.

More pocket manster, argh! Also, the thread technically is a valid game request thread. It's just kind of veering off and exploring the very questions that the OP wants to know. Find a game that discusses these topics and bring it back on board if you want.

I would like to know, despite your truth, what exactly does the thinking. What is the absolute smallest, most basic part of the brain that's fully conscious of being conscious? Does it require literally all the brain, nervous system, organs etc to be able to think? No. Yes, to live, sure, but to think? I want to know what the most basic thing that can think is. I'd like to know.

>What is the absolute smallest, most basic part of the brain that's fully conscious of being conscious?
There isn't. It's like asking which gear contains the time in mechanical clock. Or what part of the computer contains the understanding or the processes it's doing. It doesn't. There is no part of you that thinks because it is the parts of you that make the thinking happen.
There is no absolute and objective morality.
Morality is just an evolutionary tool and can change due to different selective pressures.
Your opinion is meaningless. Why gives a fuck?
Your posts are meaningless. Why even bother?
This thread is meaningless. Why are you even posting?
This site is meaningless. Why are you here?
Your life is meaningless. Why live?
Death is the only equalizer.
You, me, and everyone you know will die.
You, me, and everyone else you know will have lived a pointless, futile, and utterly meaningless life.
But hey, if pretending things have meaning makes you feel better. Go ahead.
Deep down inside... You know you're worthless, and so is everything and everyone else. The girl/guy you have a crush on, the family you love, the people you meet, your enemies... You, me, and everyone and everything else might as well have never existed. Because once you die, you remember nothing, you know nothing, you're conscious of nothing, you ARE nothing.

For anyone wondering, no it's not real, or even representative. There are way, way, way more nerves in the body.
