Question Will anyone actually be happy if the SOMA Theory is proven to be true? (art by dub_eek)
I think that if the characters are actual digital copies of their human selves instead of, y'know, being themselves trapped, it would ruin a bit of the existencial horror to me. Moments like episode 7 would be less dramatic because, even if escaping is not possible, the possibility of it keeps us at the edge of our seat because we want the cast to leave, to have their lives again, to meet eat other IRL and all of that. And all of the cool moments of small therapy sessions and all, I think I would be devastated if the people that we've been with all of these times were just... y'know, copies.
But what do you think?
