The story of SOMA is about some interesting topics, someday in the future human will eventually be able to copy brain as neurograph and plant it in somebody else or machine. Then what is my self? And what is human and what's not?
I reckon my self is not my body but my consciousness or my soul, Sarang figured our conscious mind is not the pattern of our brain, but a continuous emergent entity based on that pattern, a continuous flow of thought and perception keeps an unbroken chain of continuity that we know as our self.
Furthermore, walking corpse, artificial intelligence like more intelligent than WAU, computer with a cortex chip containing someone's brain scan like Catherine, which can be called human? Or neither?

Story's not the only reason I love this game, there's also epic horrific atmosphere and great xeno-fauna and deep-sea graphics.
My favorite horror game so far.
