Good question OP. What did you think?

it was interesting. Weird that a show was made about a subject brought up by Joe Rogan multiple times on his podcast while high. He would be like "Dude like in the future we will become so advanced as a society that we can create an algorithm that predict and create events in the past and future to an almost perfect degree." He also mentions Ex Machina as his favorite movie many times. hmmm

I liked it a lot, I guess. Good story and acting, great visuals, interesting concepts. Unsure how I feel about the ending but I guess it makes sense if Forest was actually wrong and the universe is not deterministic. Or rather, if I understand correctly, it IS deterministic. But there are infinite universes equally deterministic but with different outcomes, so the concept of "free will" become some sort of blanket statement towards the multiversal possibility of infinite variations.

OMG ITS REALLY CALLED DEUS AND HIS OTHER MOVIE IS CALLED EX MACHINA OMG THAT'S LITERALLY SO COOL HAHA

Lol I came here to comment that too. I actually kind of like it. It sort of bridges them together into the same [multi]verse?

It would have been better if the show didn't include Lily/Sergei/Jamie.

'no.'

Why would Forest set the sim to the time period where Devs is? His whole character was about him being trapped in the past. Wouldn't he set the sim to be those days he remembered?
Or is his family hanging now?
Or does "Devs" have to exist in the sim?
Or is it just lazy filmmaking and they needed to show that things "reset" while just reusing cast/sets?

In the simulated reality, DEVS doesn't exist. That's why the field is empty that Forest is playing with his family. Forest never needed to open DEVS if his daughter isn't dead.

>Why would Forest set the sim to the time period where Devs is?
He didn't set it, Katie did. I think the implication was they were left at the point in the sim where they could just pick their life back up. So Lily is dropped the day Sergei has his presentation before all went wrong for her, and Forest was presumably dropped much earlier, on the day of the accident. He does tell Lily "you get used to it" which means he's been there longer than just that morning. In this new life for them Forest never created Devs.

I love the series but... this is true for me. I didn't give a shit about Lily and her bullshit romantic life. Anytime the setting took place inside Devs I was completely captivated. They could have just made the series about the people working on Devs, their discoveries, their realization that they created a machine far too powerful for any human to control, and the conflicts of interest between them.

I was shit now stop fucking posting about it no one cares.

>Good story and acting

So he has damned his daughter to an eternal life as an 8 year old?

>listening to Rogan
>caring about what Rogan says

whew lad

>I was shit
Lmao

Overhyped crap ruined by weak writing and fucking BAD cast

The real universe is deterministic, it’s just that when Lily made a choice of her own free will, it was made clear that their current reality was actually a simulation in itself, part of many multi universes or processes from somewhere else

When Pill is talking to the Senator at the end she alludes to that theory when saying a simulation is indistinguishable from perceived reality

the fat nigga killed them, now there is an NPC char in someones pc running deus.exe

This

>the v is roman

called it!

i was expecting a lot more from the ex machina guy. couldnt be arsed to finish the series desu

Agreed, their acting was just bad. Aside from Forest I didn’t give a shit about any character.
Plus the whole quantum computer seemed too similar to Westworld.

I got a little chokes up at the end when Lilly hugged Jamie
she finally realized how much he loved her and what a selfish bitch she was being going after the longer cocked Sergei.

i heard you guys like lilly

You could easily recut the show to make it look like Lily was just some random deranged crazy person, cut out all the side drama with her jamie and sergei and just who them worried about her, trying to reach out and help her but she is just a crazy person.
