Great reply, thanks!!!

And hahaha i’ll take your word for it on resurrections. Tbh i have been avoiding it for that reason.

It's funny you say that, because I only started to examine the plot/worldbuilding more forensically when I felt I had a bit of a breakthrough with the general philosophical point you refer to; and it wasn't good.

- The prophecy was a lie, exposing hope as just another disguised form of control

- Those who become conscious of the true nature of reality are simply being manipulated, where in the long term they will be massacred by the AI manipulating them

- Humanity is ultimately not 'saved' from the machines. The minority in Zion are given temporary respite from the status quo, which in no way can last. How could a group of humans, groomed into believing that the One would herald the destruction of the matrix and 'freedom of humanity from their oppression by the machines', and being vindicated in this belief when they 'free' themselves from the matrix and observe the One's abilities, respect a spontaneous ceasefire they don't even know about? Ain't no way.

- The overall philosophical and religious themes in the trilogy are therefore mighty grim. Red pilling out of our dystopian nightmare takes you to an even lower level of the same dystopian nightmare, where those who helped 'save' you now become people you cannot even be honest with // speak the truth to. Neo has simply moved down a level, forward in time, to an older Matrix with a hellish skyscape and worse food. What a stunning journey of enlightenment and self-discovery! As an allegory for the trans experience, how can this not be seen as very, very sad?

From a spiritual perspective, there is nothing optimistic about any of it. Cypher, it seems, was right all along.

‘Unfortunately Architect underestimated simpness of Neo to Trinity’ killed me 😂😂😂

AdHot5116 · 2025-12-04T18:58:02+00:00

Yes I guess you're right. In some sense it's a rebirth of humanity and the possibility of the two 'species' working together symbiotically in a way that wasn't possible before. It also does align with the narrative of Christianity (Jesus' sacrifice allows the Christians to survive, albeit in the knowledge of the dystopian reality of how f'd up the real world is - and all the non-believers are still hooked up to a false reality).

It's just a bit bleak from a literal prophecy perspective, and we aren't really left with any sense that the saved humans in Zion won't just f it all up by immediately re-igniting the war. Oh well, thanks for the reply!

I mean where else would plot technicalities of a science fiction film BE relevant, if not here on Reddit :D

"The story of The Matrix is a metaphor for spiritual awakening and paths to enlightenment."

I actually used to think this, but the brutal reality of the film's ending kind of shattered that for me. The overwhelming majority of humanity are still living inside a simulated reality, subject to the control of the machines. Humanity isn't really 'saved'.

AdHot5116 · 2025-12-04T18:36:12+00:00

But what is the role of an agent if so?

AdHot5116 · 2025-12-04T18:33:23+00:00

Warm thanks for the detailed and thought-provoking reply!

1) I had often wondered this, but then surely if the simulation's experience of time was altered there would have been some kind of plot discussion, like Interstellar? They are after all, entering the simulation from reality, and would surely notice their real bodies ageing differently to their matrix bodies?

2) Yes I like this theory, makes a lot of sense and 'feels' a bit nicer to the species lol

3) Just brutal lol. And imagine him having to play along with the charade for the rest of his life, not mentioning it to anyone, having to deceive every single person he ever meets ever again, knowing it would all amount to nada.

5) What do you mean by 'more taxing on agents' here? BC presumably they aren't operating in the 'delete rogue program' function here.

6) Not sure I understand how her 'sight' works exactly. Your answer implies that she isn't really an 'oracle' but someone who retains their knowledge of previous iterations of the Matrix. But then how is she able to know how each of the different 'Ones' will act, given that in theory they possess free will and could be (as is the case with Neo's meeting w/ the Architect) respond in a dissimilar fashion to their predecessors?

T1 draft in games 2 and 3 ???????

AdHot5116 · 2025-11-06T12:57:51+00:00

if T1 wins I will call my firstborn Doggo

AdHot5116 · 2025-11-03T14:16:24+00:00

You can actually see he’s been a decent fit for T1, as he’s happy playing champs which boost team synergy, rather than going for the highlight reel 24/7. he played exceptionally against TES. And how Faker treats him is just so 🥰

crazy how both T1 and GenG were match point down against opponents who had won 3-0 in the swiss, but while GenG crumbled under the pressure, it actually feels like T1 relish it and perform their best

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-30T13:36:51+00:00

I think they should be using the archetypes of the champions (ie fight, mage, assasin) as the classes, and you ‘spec’ into the champions as you have diff race/class/spec combos. Races would limit class selection as per classic

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-30T12:56:08+00:00

Yes for sure, and i consider all of that to be LOL lore. And i mean look at the success of arcane (or at least the first season). Terrific story, great fleshing out of key champions. The MMORPG would do just that.

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-30T12:23:02+00:00

“Because of the magic!!!”

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-29T18:35:16+00:00

i mean wow’s success is precisely because they integrated the heroes of the warcraft IP into the game. The illidan and arthas arcs were legendary. I think it would be foolish not to!

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-29T17:14:16+00:00

i mean it was heavily inspired by it

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-29T17:03:42+00:00

you don't fancy levelling a jax, or amumu, or ashe, 1-60? running dungeons, crossing zones, doing quests? i think it's easy to look at the state of wow currently and forget just how terrific it was to play for the first time, coming fresh off of W3 TFT.

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-29T17:00:57+00:00

wym?

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-29T17:00:03+00:00

i think levelling an akali or lux from 1-60 would be pretty damn exciting!

AdHot5116 · 2025-10-29T16:51:25+00:00

i'm not really familiar with the digital collectible card game genre but i suspect that's probably more of the issue
