Playing Nier: Automata really exposed how elementary Westworld is in regards to transhumanism.

westworld has a lot of fun scenes though
>>
>>83561141
It wasn't great since last half. They took an easy root with story and deus ex nigress was insufferable to watch when in clothes.

Westworld has nothing to do with transhumanism.
>>
>>83561141

It's a big budget "twist of the week" HBO show, a la GoT.

It's worth watching to make fun of it and meme about it. Like TWD or some shit.

Maybe you should google that again.

not humans. so not transhumanism

>HBO wants to make a first season of a show that will capture the normie market after GoT ends
>Decide to adapt a random shitty movie from the 70s into a 7 season long affair
>Make the first season self contained and feel more like a mini-series than the beginning of some grand adventure
>Do it in a format that is gimmicky and will not work if they try again (split timeline)
>Kill off half of the established characters anyway
>Have the remaining characters be bland, underwritten, and tired cliches (le smart black scientist man, le mysterious 6d chess playing overlord, le smart woman)
>Wrap up the first season in the most predictable way possible, with the most predictable twists
>Next season airs literally 2 years after the first
>First season had lukewarm to warm reception at best

Yeah, this is doomed. I don't think anyone really gives a shit. GoT had the benefit of fans of the books attached to the show no matter what, and the normie appeal was obvious. There's not many die hard fans of the source material here and I don't think this show has much normie appeal. Especially considering GoT is getting spin offs.

I predict this show will be canned after it's 2nd season

this thread is worse than i thought it would be and i expected it to be pretty bad

Transhumanism is about transcending human limitations, the children aren't literal humans
>>
>>83561614
And yet it still had the highest ratings for the first season of any HBO series in history.

>Transhumanism is an international and intellectual movement that aims to transform the human condition by developing and making widely available sophisticated technologies to greatly enhance human intellect and physiology.
>to greatly enhance human intellect and physiology.
i.e improving on what biology gave us. they aren't human and they never were

Transhumanism is about humans transcending human limitations

if you fuck the hosts will they make baby

>>83561619
ehh. The point is that they aren't humans and never were humans. They are androids with a rapidly evolving AI.

Transhumansim is enhancing humans (up until the point where humans aren't really humans anymore).

nah. Maeve storyline was garbage but the show as a whole was brilliant.

>>83562485
maybe you're right. I just remembered "what door?" that shit was pretty hype
