Deus Ex - Morpheus, Optimized

A re-done version of the scene in Deus Ex containing Morpheus, as advised by SquidTube. The video is now cleaner, with the HUD removed, extra clicking at the end and the music reduced to make the voices clearer.

In fact, deus ex is about merging with the intelligent technologies we are creating at a fundamental level. Being a program running among thousands, whole and separate. Real life being just another window open.

I know the story is fictional and I may be reading too much into it but the base concepts are there. Not arguing with you, just drawing on your astute observations.

'deus ex is about merging with the intelligent technologies we are creating at a fundamental level'

True, but we're at the very least decades away from such things. Better to look at the future from afar and think 'cor blimey, that'll be magnificent' then to become too wrapped up in it.

And if theres one thing I've found, its that when technology moves ahead, it moves in a way completely unanticipated, even in science fiction.

This is zelos1111, just had to change my username. It's amazing how much of this science fiction is now science fact. Look at the collective consciousness forming (evolving) on the Internet everyday. Free of individual ambition; a complete summary of human thought. I myself would join with such an entity. We will have our god, and we will build him with our own hands.

@TheDoomProgram

Collective conciousness? The Internet mererly grants an individual anonymity, nothing more. A collective conciousness is still completely and utterly beyond us, as even with anonymity, we are all individual. Quite how you make the leap from an artificial intelligence and nanotechnologies from a fictional storyline to the societal structures of the internet is beyond me.

Deus Ex wins PC Gamer's best PC game ever again in 2010, I've lost count of how many years its been there now, I should check my back issues.

Google is a search engine/software entity where all individuals looks for answers in, with reverence. Thats a god like quality

People in other countries react to problems in America not as in looking at America and complaining, but as if they lived in America. Complain that their governments are flawed in the same ways even if they are not.

There are methods too look at this, but reductionism isn't one of them.

You don't really thing that millions of people just wake up one day all with the idea of overthrowing their government by random chance do you? What are the odds of that and yet no other days?

The connections are not directly observable as observing quantum states collapses them.. so it is a subjective connection.

You should more closely observe normal conversations between people. They are trying to "read each other", to "get on the same wave length", to "vibe", ext..

People looking for a "soul mate" or another part of them, like 2 identical twins.

The internet causes more such connections. People in other countries react to problems in America.

@Fatman311 Collective consciousness is intrinsic to our nature, and individuality is but a lie we tell ourselves. We are actually trillions of individuals, the singular "I" is a construct. The physical laws exploited to create this construct are quantum in nature and intrinsically nonlocal. Two identical patterns act as though they occupy the same position in 3D space even if they don't. This makes pure individuality impossible as only part of the process is objective.

@MarikBentusi Good insight. I love it when games use gameplay to tell a story.

[ZidaneTribal93]

WTF? I have never seen this before. Deus Ex is truly a masterpiece.

[JCDentonCZ]

It was never science fiction, as technology is way ahead of anything else. These things have been public and can be found by yourself; it is just that most people have not sought for it, thus making such technological breakthroughs seem impossible for the public.

Without a doubt one of the most beautiful stories ever created. Everything works together in this game, the music, storyline, music, and message behind the game. Never before, and unfortunately probably never again, will a game deliver so much to the intelligent community.
