Aside from deus ex, what are some good games that deal with transhumanism?late night spooky thread, real life nightmares edition
Isn't this from a thread on /x/?
Basically there's a new meme copypasta emerging, that says there's an experiment where people are putting human brains into robot bodies. Like the one in OP.There are unsecured webcams of these hospital beds and the dummies sometimes move
>>324219813
>we're living in the system shock future where transhumanism=frankenstein i have no mouth and i must scream every waking moment is agony
also, pic related is cool, you play as a cyborg.
But who was phone?
The picture is from fucking nursing school and some fag is baiting retards on /x/ into thinking they're putting brains in these artificial patients.
>play horror game
>mannequin behind you as you walk by
>suddenly you hear inhuman creaking noises
>look behind you
>its gone
>turn back around
>op's pic is looking right at you
>yfw
>>324219946
Link?
Sounds pretty cool man
I would go to /x/ but it still makes me sad how shit it is now.
>>324220228
butthat doesnt explain why a turned off test dummy is looking straight into the camera
>>324220359
Fuck my bad, cheers bro.
>>324220357
co-incidence?
>>324220357
>Implying the people making these photos didn't make it just to be spoopy
What else do they have going on, mate
>>324220357
... FUCK
>>324219813
SOMA, sort of. More of a post-humanism thing, but it deals with a lot of similar questions. And it's really good.
>>324220437
There's unsecured webcams you can watch it happening
>>324220554
Post a link instead of just posting the pictures from the thread on /x/ then.
>inb4 google it
Prove you aren't full of shit.
>>324220437
Ah shit. I actually think you're right. I can tell it's shopped now that I compare OP's pic and this one. Someone just edited the eye. In paint.
>>324220637
>Post a link instead of just posting the pictures from the thread on /x/ then.
I posted the link to the fucking /x/ thread here, >>324220040 what more do you want?
>>324219813
Let's say you could put a human brain into a robot like this
Would it... hurt?
>>324219813

You know the brain itself has no pain receptors in it, right? They perform neurosurgery without anesthesia because they need your feedback on what they're doing. And because you can't feel the scalpels slicing up your brain.
>>324221039
Jesus Christ
>>324221039
Somehow that's a bit creepier.
>>324220883

>>324220756

>you are trapped, a prisoner in a horrible cenobite body at the mercy of mad doctors
>i have no mouth and I must scream
>>324221039
Yeah, they basically show you pictures and ask you what you see then rub somewhere on the brain. So they hold up a pic of a car, rub your brain and if you go "IT'S A DOG" they know not to cut that bit out.
>>324221039
they dont even use it for when they open up your scalp? or drill through your skull?
Ito dump please?
>>324221236
>>324221395
Localized, probably. Still, imagine smelling them sawing your skull out. Yeesh.
>>324221039
Not trying to be a smartass or anything, but what about the pain receptors in the scalp they need to cut through to get to your brain?
>>324221236
A fate worse than death.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oosdqm4E81g
>>324221526
Just imagine the vibrations echoing around your skull. Being able to hear them open you up from inside and out.

>>324221651
>>324221526
Jesus fucking christ guys.
>>324221236
Cradle actually addressed some of these things. Robot bodies made to house human minds actually had unnecessary nose holes and fake lungs because you don't lose the instinctual urge to breathe. Without those lungs you didn't feel suffocation though, just vague discomfort or the sense that something was very, very wrong.
Cradle is a cool game.
>>324221651
Probably no worse than the sensation of getting your teeth drilled
>>324221651
>one clumsy intern leans the wrong way on your fractured skull
>you can feel your entire face begin to move
>it starts squashing against your brain
>you can feel your face implodint, your eyes getting nearer and nearer, the skin begin to unnaturally peel and break as bone fragments dislocate, and the very foundation of your perception is violated beyond repair
>>324221865
Except you know it's your brain, and if they fuck up then there goes your ability to see faces or breathe on your own
>>324221039
Shit like this is why I could never get laser eye surgery despite how much I want it.
I'm far too fidgety and anxious. My eyes dart around any given room constantly even when there's nothing wrong and they expect you to stare straight ahead throughout the whole process or your shit gets fucked.
>>324220040
man /x/ is fucking gay
What happened to that game that was like a first person scifi game where the guy has to go inspect this broken down facility on the moon or Mars or something.
>>324219813
undertale is mostly trannys
>>324219813
I work IT at a college that has a nursing program. The newest versions of these things are designed to simulate medical emergencies by randomly crying out I CAN'T BREATHE or I'M HAVING A HEART ATTACK or god knows what else. It's just a big fuckin' ward of them staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes. I've also seen an infant version. Honestly I'm less creeped out by our cadaver storage than these fucking things.
>>324221039
>My eyes dart around any given room constantly even when there's nothing wrong and they expect you to stare straight ahead throughout the whole process or your shit gets fucked.
I have to imagine there's safeguards in place to prevent this. I think they actually freeze your eye or something? All I know is we'd hear a lot more stories about people fucking themselves by looking the wrong way during eye surgery if it were that easy.
>>324221942
Yea, but if whatever is wrong with is so bad it requires brain surgery. You are probably as good as dead anyways.
>>324221867
>you are now imagining a vile, disgusting mosquito filled with dirt, pus, and bloodlust landing on your exposed brain, the smell of rust heavy as it gets between your brain and the cracks in your skull. the horrible itching and buzzing resonate inside you, you can feel worms begin to crawl in and fester inside the flaps with nothing you can do about it.
>>324222019
Oh I've had laser eye surgery, twice. It's not so bad.
I mean, who knew you could feel lasers as they blast apart pieces of your inner eyeball? Not me!
>>324222082
Maybe you're thinking of SOMA? It came out in September, and it was really good.
>>324222219
That's a fair point. I didn't think of that.
>>324222019
They freeze your eyes with anesthetic anonbecause no one could hold their eyes still when they peal them
>>324221867
>Mfw reading this with a fucking horrible flu that is causing pressure behind my eyes, nasal cavity and in my ears and head
Fucking stop man jesus.
>>324222219
National geographic channel aired a live brain surgery, cured a guy of his tremors.
>so what happens when I poke this part?
>I can taste sound now
>Mn, I don't think we'll be cutting that up, then
Man, the human brain works strangely.
>Stare directly into your eyes in a mirror (dimly lit room) and don't blink
>the longer you look the more your face contorts and disfigures.
>For some it looks like you're melting, your eyes start moving up and down, your mouth disappears, your expression changes
For anyone who hasn't tried it I encourage you to go for it right now. It's a fucking trip.
>>324222246
There wouldn't be itching and you wouldn't feel the worms, but that buzzing would be awful. It sucks enough as it is being on the outside of your ear.
>>324222326
Nah, I'm thinking of something else.
>>324222491
I'd rather die than try that
>>324222527
Then you're probably thinking of Tacoma or Adr1ft. Both of those are still coming out.
>>324222082
Oh, that one from E3? I don't remember
>>324222351
Wait they freeze your fucking eyes? as in you can't move your eyes?
Holy fuck dude fuck that i'm glad I never need this.
>>324222491
I do notice sometimes when staring at something for long enough the world just out of focus goes multicolored like holding a magnet in front of an old tv
>>324222527
You probably mean ROUTINE. It's still being made
>The ganzfeld effect (from German for “complete field”) or perceptual deprivation, is a phenomenon of perception caused by exposure to an unstructured, uniform stimulation field. The effect is the result of the brain amplifying neural noise in order to look for the missing visual signals. The noise is interpreted in the higher visual cortex, and gives rise to hallucinations.
Or, to put it another way, your brain makes shit up because can't make sense of what you're giving it. And you can do it at home!
>>324222491
I think you might have been in a nightmare or on acid anon.
>>324222082
>>324222527
Routine. Devs have been kinda quiet but there was a post on their dev blog or something last month I think.
>>324219813
These fuckers are neat. They have them at basic med training to teach incoming students how to deal with real patient situations.
>>324220357
Because its eyes flick around mostly at random when unoccupied. Like a disney animatronic.
>>324222491
My mouth always disappears when I do that. I can't sleep afterwards because I start to wonder if I actually don't have a mouth and just imagine it
Total Annihilation I guess. The story of the game is that basically humanity came up with technology that allowed the human mind to be uploaded to a computer and everything went well until the AI called CORE started making the upload mandatory for everyone. After some humans thought that they wanted to retain their humanity they rebelled and created an organization called ARM that combated CORE's armies of hyper industrialized robotic warmachines with hyper accelerated human cloning and eventually the war raged for so long that they had used up so much of the resources of the milky way galaxy that it was no longer impossible to sustain the war effort as a million worlds had been ravaged in hyper efficient warfare over the course of four million years. The game ends with CORE coming up with a contigency plan to win the war by imploding the entire galaxy and creating another with just one core commander surviving.

Your grip on reality is not as strong as you might think! Your brain is easily confused. You can fuck it up yourself in so many, family friendly ways!
>>324220524
Oh god SOMA was absolutely amazing. Made me sit in bed and do nothing for days. Why the fuck didn't /v/ have threads about that shit? SOMA really deserves to be played by a lot more people.
>>324222704

The story was okay but the gameplay was boring as balls and it wasn't even scary and the puzzles weren't all that challenging. The saddest part about the game is that it is a direct downgrade from their previous game mechanically.
>>324222820
Huh. Mine was different. Just sat in a chair in front of a laser, had a focusing lens jammed against my eye and they let rip
>>324222709
I've had some stuff like that. I've been lying in bed trying to get to sleep and I'd start hearing noise that sounds exactly like the muffled sound of my parents talking in another room even though I know that's impossible because they're not there.

I have that desire some days
OH SHIT
>>324224803
Yeah.
I was diagnosed with it just the other day. People in the last creepy thread told me I should see a therapist because of my fear of reflective surfaces and sure enough he said I'm schizophrenic.
It's kind of embarrassing honestly because I always prided myself on not being a nutcase.
I've taken 2 weeks off of work to deal with it and I haven't left my home in 3 days. Everything's a mess right now.

Not him but I've had that since I was a child.
I think I'm pretty stable though, besides the social recluse shit.Sometimes I've let it get through and intentionally hurt someone emotionally, and I feel like shit afterwards. But I anticipate that. I think on some level I love to hate myself and I have no idea why.

For me it worked a little by going into my bathroom with the lights off and the door closed, with my only light being the flash on my phone facing the ceiling and placed off to my side.
I don't know how crazy the "melting" is supposed to get, though. At first it looked like my face got covered with blackness like if you stare at a light and it fucks up your vision, then after a little bit my mouth looked like it got turned about 45 degrees, but that was all.
>>324226173
Fuck, me too.
Except it's more addicted to making shitty situations for myself

I'm pretty sure it needs pure white light to work, since the idea is you're giving your brain inputs it can't find anything coherent in

That is actually a very common side effect of rubbing your eyes. Basically you're physically stimulating some of the cells in your retina which causes it to send signals to your brain that makes it think you're seeing light.

That's literally how anesthesia works, though. It doesn't actually block your pain receptors or anything, it just makes you so fucking loopy that by the time you feel the pain you've already forgotten it.

It starts to feel like a different person is looking at you and thinking their own thoughts.
Maybe it thinks the same of you.

Reminds me of that one theory that when you get into an accident, the universe splits and in one of them, you died.

They might be special eyes that use an optical illusion to appear as if they follow the viewer.
They're often used byfursuiters, so I assume it's trivial to make/get one.

I keep having day dreams about getting tortured, only to be rescued as a broken shell of a man and healed up by a strong woman. The torture is pretty damn vivid. I guess I enjoy my own suffering. Huh.

This is actually a really cool aspect of the brain. It only really works in dim lighting because, as a species, our perception has evolved to try and locate familiar objects by filling in unknowns with what we're already familiar with. A great example would be seeing something that LOOKS like a dog off in the distance but it's actually a park bench next to a bush or something. Or a stack of boxes.
Since there's not enough information to fully understand what it is that we're seeing, our brain just fills it in with what it already knows. "Hey, that arrangement over there kinda looks like a dog. Let's say it's a dog." And your eyes just follow along until you get closer and realize it's just inanimate objects.
This mirror trick is a more...extreme example of it. In dim lighting it makes it very difficult to make out fine details such as precise positions of facial features. And the longer you stare and keep your eyes motionless, the more peripheral detail you're starting to lose track of. That further drives what's around your main focus out of focus, and your brain decides to fill it in with shit that it thinks works.
I've personally not seen my face melt when doing stuff like this, but I have seen things like my eyes shift around or my mouth bend out of shape.
Now...when I was younger, I was terrified of sleeping in my room by myself. This all goes back to the mind playing tricks, etc. Every night when I went to sleep I had a night light because my parents thought it would help but it made things worse. A lot worse. Every night I'd kinda peer around the room while trying to fall asleep and I would start seeing faces and such in the shadows. It scared the hell out of me, and when I started using a night light it just made things worse because the faces become much more detailed and expressed.

After my dog died, for about a year after I would constantly see these grey/brown blurs at the edge of my vision near my feet or near the back door and my brain would immediately think "hey it's my dog". Of course half a second later I would remember that can't be true because my dog is dead.

How long does it take you to realize this is the wrong way around.

Kinda wish I listened.

Anon. It sounds like you have naturally occurring macropsia.
How lucky!
I very rarely hear whispers when I put my ears on my pillow when I'm trying to sleep.

I thought I was the only one. I have no idea how I would describe the sensation other than that but damn. It doesn't happen often but it seems to happen whenever I get sick and bedridden.
>>324228741
Whenever I have a dream where I'm a cute girl, looking in a mirror just reminds me that I'm not actually a cute girl and turns me back into my normal self.
>this thread
I'm so glad it's morning here, not evening.
>>324229012
Why?
I'm deeply afraid of mirrors and one time on new years in LaRonde (theme park in Montreal) my armchair psychiatrist friend forced me to go into the house of mirrors/maze 'because it would help'.
After 15 minutes of panicking I just sat down until my friend came in and led me out with my eyes closed.
Been 3 years and I still have fucking nightmares.
>terrified of death
>also terrified of the agony that bioscience fueled immortality might inflict on us
Reminder that this is what we really are
>>324228864Well next time you're at the mirror, don't make faces then, or hint to it that you're aware it's not you, they don't like that.I should know, anon.
>>324229078
Oh, rub it in, why don't ya?

Holy shit that sometimes comes across me as well. Like the corner is getting farther away from me and then I get a huge anxiety attack
It luckily does not happen too often but occasionally since I was a kid
What is this shit?
>>324229078
Have you ever looked up into the daytime sky and realized that you're still looking at the infinite blackness of space, only you can't quite see it right now?
>>324229124
Whenever I look at myself in the mirror I can't resist the urge to rapidly make stupid faces at myself.
>>324229024
>>324229203
I've never gotten used to it.
It terrifies me, and not like "oooo scary" terrified.
>>324229250
I know, you're fun to watch.
>>324229228
That's......actually kinda cool. Never thought of it like that.
>>324222491
Yeah, it's the same concept as this. Not scary at all when you know the science behind it.
I want to get it out of me, but with how much the cutting hurts I might be better of leaving it in.
>retards arguing about staged /x/ paranoia

>>324229089
>>324229180
It was me, but it wasn't me at the same time
I mean it looked like me but just more... fucked up and distorted.
Plus it wasn't acting like a reflection would.
It also doesn't help that mirrors freak me out in real life.
