Yes, it is inspired by that game.

Reminds me of Robin Williams’ Bicentennial man (the family’s surname probably helps lol)

Do androids here look like humans?

Yeah, considering it just came out, the thought hit me as soon as I read the description.

@HedaPenguin This definitely looks interesting, and I am looking forward to it, but what do you mean by Deviant Androids? Are they like rogue Androids that attack/kills humans? Or is there something else to it?

I guess they would be rebels of some sort that are not fond of being treated like lesser creatures

Considering I always use sentient robots in my Stellaris runs and abuse them very harshly, I do not think I would be sympathetic to rebellious machines whose only priorities, goals and dreams should be to serve me.

Never heard of it. Is that a book or movie?

Yes

They are rebels who want to save themselves from servitude.

Definitely interested. I hope you release a demo soon, this could be a very unique project.

How exactly? Do they want to kill and enslave all humans and rule the world? Or they do they simply want compromises and to be left alone?

They want to get revenge from humans who treated them bad. They don’t touch innocent people.

You’d think they’d just program them not do this :roll_eyes:

So I’m a slave who can’t defend himself but I can haphazardly sleep around :blush:

Androids can break their programming.

What type of stats will we have?

Well you know what they say, you can never have enough games about artificial intelligence

Bicentennial man is a movie…

This sounds like a very good, easy to manage idea.

I think it would be a good idea to have the start (where we can choose gender, etc) and then go into a part with tons of greyed out choices, to show your lack of free will, but then a bug or something allows you to make any choice you want

I love the idea, we certainly don’t have many android stories. So yes, I very much wanna check out the demo!

To be honest these are open to interpretation and loopholes without any need for bugs to occur :slight_smile:

What does being loyal here mean? Is following every order of your owner included? Then that owner can simply order you to, for example, assault other human (who’s not the owner) for your brain to fizzle out by being caught in an endless loop. That is best case scenario if there were safeguards.

At worst, with this exact ruleset, you’d have to carry out the task because rule #1 has the highest priority and rule #3 does not strictly contradict with #1.

Always love these type of stories can what to see what you bring to the table

Fuck yeah, I’ve been itching to play games with the MC as a non-human.
