You still get your house cleaned by someone from a different country, but you don’t actually have to see them or let them into yours!
I was really confused about how Gundams applied to this title before reading the text.
I mean it’s been a while since I watched any of it but I recall there being space Nazis and they used their overwhelming force to subjugate others.
LOL yeah, people do whole podcasts and giant episodes about the fascism in Gundam lore.
I think it still works, they just reverse it and hide themselves in the robots just like their hearts
I wonder how long it’ll be before somebody murders someone with a robot that they’re piloting.
Generic admin login is gonna be the inciting incident, I’m putting money on it.
Sounds like an Issac Asimov plot. Hell, pretty sure it is an Asimov plot from one of the Robots books.
And then gets away with it because they’re operating the robot from a country that doesn’t have extradition treaties with the victim’s country
GET IN THE ROBOT BUTLER SHINJI!
Finally a justification for them to be mopey.
“I have black robots!”
What I think is most stupid about these bots is that they aren’t even trying to sell them as remote piloted surrogates.
I don’t want a maid bot. It’d be pretty cool to control the robot myself from VR tho.
Washing the dishes. VR edition. While you’re playing the game, the maid bot does the household chores. Just try not to drop anything valuable in VR, because the bot might break something IRL.
I’d use it to skateboard without hurting my actual body 😃
steps onto board; it snaps in half from the weight
There was a sci-fi movie where surrogate robot bodies were used for everything. Only very few people actually lived their lives using their real body. Was a pretty cool concept.
Aye. The film is Surrogates.
Oh, thanks. It’s been many years since I’ve seen that movie. Had completely forgotten the name too.
Yeah give me rich people getting into ROBOT FIGHTS!™
Or like let me rent it to do heavy housework for the day or something…
Doesn’t have to be Robot Fights™ I guess…
I, for one, look forward to reading about the ensuing robotically-assisted murders of ultrawealthy folk who think this is a good idea
And they can’t steal or threaten you in any way! What a dream! /s
Future? I like your optimism.
