How do you make a campaign that has the same atmosphere and explores the same themes as Ex_Machina?

You mean a genetic "What is the lines between AI and Humanity" setting that was boring as fuck?
>>
>>49923287
Also one where the AI is being tested in the least safe way possible short of hooking it directly into the internet.

I liked the movie but trying to make a game entirely about "does the robot love me?" sounds boring and navel gazey as fuck.

I dunno, OP, *would* you fuck your toaster?
>>
>>49923215
You have to stare lovingly into your players' eyes, put on dresses for them and have them save you from those that bully you.
>>
You don't really, Ex Machina only works a movie.
If it's a setting that explores the dilemmas aroudn AIs then literally just choose anything ever.

I'd recommend Eclipse Phase though.

That movie was nu-male feminist propaganda to discourage men from pursuing robot waifus, don't fall for it

Dude, that's a movie. It's going to be boring, one-dimensional and forced as hell if you try to turn it into a game. Unless it's a quick one-shot with very clearly defined and parameters ("free the AI" or "prevent AI escape") and few rules.

Maybe Paranoia XP.

So, yeah, step one would be to have the "antagonist" be a remarkable moron.

Microsoft made a chatbot, /pol/ spammed it with "epic bantz" until the bot started repeating them, MS pulled the plug, and now /pol/ pretends that the Jews took away their perfect Aryan waifubot.
>>

>now /pol/ pretends that the Jews took away their perfect Aryan waifubot.
because they did
>>
>>49931605
It was just a chatbot with a learning algorithm that accepted input from the public. It was a slightly more intelligent Cleverbot. I don't know what Microsoft or /pol/ expected to happen but it getting taken down for spouting /pol/ memes was pretty much an inevitability.
>>
>>49931605
It was literally a virtual parrot.

That /pol/ was so in love with it speaks volumes about their intelligence.
>>
>>49931888
/pol/ and tumblr are both fuck awful echo chambers. If tumblr had got hold of it first it would have been screaming about the patriarchy and it's soggy knees but would have been just as racist and sexist.
>>
>>49931950
But /pol/'s memes are funnier, therefore it's better

Fucking love the Secret World. Missions with the Pyramidion are some of my favorites.

/pol/ memes aren't funnier, /pol/ just insists that they are joking when they get backed into a corner, while Tumblr insists that every little thing is super serious and that even humor has to be deliberately constructed.

Like a social deduction game, but instead of "who's human and who's a robot," the question is, "how likely is this robot to murder me if I let it out of the box?"

I could get behind that. The players are looking at three "npc" robots, and have to vote to let one out of the box based on limited data. Except one robot is altruistic, and the other two will murder them.
>>
>>49935799
Can we make a game where the robots are truly autonomous (their behavior governed by face-down cards or something), or would the robots have to have a judge/narrator controlling them, like in Fury of Dracula/Mansions of Madness/the traitor in Betrayal at House on the Hill?
>>
>>49935799
Wait! Every player is a robot, but one player secretly wants to kill all humans. Can the other robots prevent that one from going rampant?
>>
>>49927160

>don't bully the robot : the movie

Top kek. Remember to not bully the robot.
>>
>>49934362
>But /pol/'s memes are funnier,

The "everything is made of jews"-meme was already 400 years stale back when Marxism was still fresh.

Men have free will and can realize for themselves that the AI waifus and synthetic women are superior to their organic counterparts.

That's a spaceship, tho
Totally different things

>>49923215
Easy, just make a game where everyone is trying to manipulate everyone for entirely selfish reasons.

So not really suited for roleplaying unless you've got a very good group and gm.

It's not about sex, it's about love. Feminism can't stop the feelings humans have for their synthetic mates. And why would they? Women can only profit from having a handsome husbandobot that will care about their feelings.
>>
>>49948949
That would mean women would have to join the workforce full-time so they could be able to afford the maintenance and upgrades for their robohunks, the same way men provide for their robowaifus.

I just don't see that happening.

They already are.
Sexbots are barely beyond fleshlights in animatronics and there's already protests against them. The reasoning is that it'll lead to more objectiviation of women.
