>From time to time he would watch movies or play video games that have philosophical themes which interest him.

i've posted this before, but i get a strong land/DE vibe from opus magnum. alchemists commenting cryptically about real world events and building mysterious machine-devices for consumer product, aware that they may or may not be trapped within a computer simulation seems very much like a land-type game, or the kind of game his characters would be playing if he was more into literature and less about philosophy.

all the zachtronics games evoke this kind of deleuzian stuff to me, maybe factorio also: we build factories for the sake of factories and so on, simulate the capitalism and metaphysics that simulate us and so on.
