I love Xenogears but man, people who write posts like that are either 17years old or midwits who think (badly) namedropping concepts equates analyzing them.

I've spent the last 6 years studying esoterics and now Xenogears feels like someone read the wikipedia article on gnosticism and decided to cram everything without seriously analyzing what they read.

By the way, gnosticism as a whole is exactly that: Midwits profanes who didn't understand the esoteric meaning of christianity and made up a fanfic about how there are two gods, and the demiurge is an evil one... and the true one God is outside of reach unless you're a pneumatic... Basically, brainlets who didn't get that it wasn't two gods, but two faces of the same deity. God in its absoluity, and God interacting with His creation (see Maester Echkart and is distinction between God and Godhead to get it)

Still an awesome story. Copying every sci-fi trope from the last 30years makes it quite unique, paradoxically.
