Is that the one where he talks about humans worshipping gods, then celebrity, then what becomes NG Resonance in DX:IW? That was a great conversation, I'd love to get the transcript of that. It was sort of like another interpretation of deus ex machina.
Actually seeing NG for the first time in DX:IW was one of my favourite moments of that game because it linked back to this.
Except I have to ask, is Morpheus a reference to The Matrix or is Morhpeus a character in Greek mythos? I really fucking hope it's not a Matrix thing, I hate that shit.
'The Greek god of dreams. He lies on a ebony bed in a dim-lit cave, surrounded by poppy. He appears to humans in their dreams in the shape of a man. He is responsible for shaping dreams, or giving shape to the beings which inhabit dreams. Morpheus, known from Ovid's Metamorphoses, plays no part in Greek mythology. His name means "he who forms, or molds" (from the Greek morphe), and is mentioned as the son of Hypnos, the god of sleep. 'Morphine' is derived from his name.' (quoted from (
