In the director's cut?

The pacing isn't very swift, but it's also not an action movie. It's a ponderous detective/philosophical blend.

The rest is just your classic noir and scenery porn.

Asimov did all this shit back in the 30's and 40's. Blade Runner just felt like mainstream crap being spoonfed to a technophobic public.

I'd be 100% less worried if they were openly a robot. Robots are cool, but if you have to hide the fact you're a robot you are probably not a robot who intends to do kind things.
>>
>>49732578
Story with slow buildup and rapid conclusion doesn't necessary make bad pacing. Sometimes it fits the situation.
>>
>>49732628
>>49732578
So the pacing is slow and boring because it's already been done before?

Those two aren't related, unless you think the story was slowed down to make it more palatable, but I don't think that's the case. The pacing is slowed down for tension's sake, and to give the various threads time to become more cohesive.

Blade Runner is better solely by virtue of the fact they made Roy Batty into an actually interesting character.

The book is good but I think Blade Runner's themes are more interesting.

I don't like Dick.

His shit is boring, pretentious and obtuse. I can't tell if he thinks his snotty proto-literate readers are idiots or if he really is that full of himself.

Dick is one of those guys who has great, imaginative ideas but bogs them down with a very polarizing writing style. I think he's alright, but I've been stuttering through Man in the High Castle for months now and I'm not sure if I'll ever actually finish it.

Best sci fi writer is Ray Bradbury.
>>
Also, Greg Bear is swine. He is overly fixated on sex and sexual themes and not in fun way. Everything I've ever read from him started off with a sex scene that made me feel uncomfortable and came off as creepy.
>>
Are replicants actually robots? I thought they were more organic in nature?
>>
>>49732846
Replicants in the book are robots and in the movie are genetically engineered constructs.
>>
>>49732835
Having good ideas isn't what makes a novel engaging.

I hate how literary writers think that they have a right to be boring.
>>
>>49732846
They are robots, but yes, very organic in body type. But still, being a robot doesn't mean your body can't be heavily "wet"
>>
>>49732857

The book replicants are "robots", at least the Nexus 6 ones are. Aside from the Voight-Kampf, the only way to tell if one is an android is through a bone marrow test.
>>
>>49732835
which one is the one who lived on a boat with his teenage boy slave and started a religion?

You know, Dianetics, Scientology, all that good stuff.

Was it Heinlien? They all seem like a bunch of fucking faggots to me, desu.
>>
>>49732886

L. Ron Hubbard.

Heinlein just slowly went crazy and started writing about police states and sister fucking.

My entire party is secret robots. So far, it's been masked by their environment suits and the fact that everyone else knows exactly what they are and considers it well-known enough to not br worth mentioning. None of them know. Yet.

That's gonna change once viruses start flying in combat.

You guys ever read Robert Aspirin?

I'm not saying he was a genius or anything, but I read his MythAdventures series straight through in one sitting.

It was like eating a whole bag of popcorn in one sitting.

Was the test of that nerve that the androids were using in their own police station bullshit? I seem to remember that that also worked.

It's Blade Runner as filtered through the mind of a detail oriented westaboo. It's pretty good and I suggest playing it if you can stomach visual novels.

If you enjoy that make sure to check out Policenauts aka Lethal Weapon IN SPACE.

My dmpc is a friendly medic who always tags along with the party.

The pics have no clue that the medic is actually a cyborg. The medic is recording their every move and informing a secret alien organization.

The PCs themselves are unwitting agents of the aliens. All of their memories are implanted

Sir, that's clearly a man in a costume, if you don't calm down we're going to have to ask you to leave.

Also, you might only have a few years more to wait. There was a thread on /g/ the other day about sex dolls, and the tech is coming along.
