Yeah, but rip and tearing hell instead of suffering it

It's 1990, after an explosion who killed you you're placed in half life. The problem with Jory in the Sanitarium has been solved.

Researchers have found a solution to people with psychic powers eating other people in the same structure.

By working with people from the new id psychic software studio they devised an alternate reality where other patients are transformed into imps and other hellish creatures. Patients are provided with an array of guns to defend themselves from attacks.

Level 2, pick up your shotgun.

I give it <10 years before we get neural nets running on biological neurons. Things are starting to move dangerously fast now

I've done it with less

This research was in Australia, you'll have to ask there.

Just hook up one neuron to a B button a controller.

That's how low the bar is for "science" under capitalism.

*sigh* fine, switching to another timeline...

Ha ha! These are 'human neurons' ... the end result probably resembles what we've already got. Get 'em fooled about what reality is, and profit.

They can't see the game, so I don't think it matters. They just experience a stimulation in one area of their clump when a daemon appears on one side of the screen.

For all we know, they see Jesus and their reaction is to say hello, which the scientists translate to "shoot"

Look, if you don't like the meatwad, there are plenty other wads available!

Video sure looks like this, but they have the tech, they describe it like something that can actually be used to divide screen into NxM areas and send representation of each area to neurons for example. And even that would be extremely naive approach ofc. But that's beside the point. To me the most concerning thing here is that they already have this setup and it sounds like they even provide API to use it for external projects.
