My condolences on C&C 4, you can join my support group if you wish. Alright so I think of continually low-humanity AI will probably end up like CABAL. CABAL didn’t utilize overly technical language 24/7 but did “predict” GDI’s movements and such. Otherwise he just spoke with a great deal of maliciousness (and went rogue, deciding to kill everyone).
The concept of Legion might make an appearance in the game somehow, if I can work it in seamlessly.
Well at best you can have EVA. Pure analysis without the psychosis but without any shown humanity. If this is the eventual destination, I think the best way to track it would be AI humanity plus your own.
Less Reapers, more Skynet and you’ll have the right idea. I don’t picture this “worst case scenario” happening in this book unless you intentionally pursue it. It will be considered a bad end that will NOT carry over into the future.
