Introducing the Glitch (Robots)

Love it. A lot of people have made a lot of guesses as to what the robot race would be like and be named, and I think what we got went beyond expectations. The Glitch sound like a very interesting race!

 

Robo-Shakespeare is a pimp.

 

Robo-Pimp is chrome-plated

 

I like the concept of a medieval robot race, but I think a few technological small stuff could be added. Something like a parody, as if they were trying to hide the electronics in small objects to make them look like common static objects like regular boxes, torches, etc.

Example:
- That huge church-bell makes a very electronic door-bell noise.
- Just like with Apex, add some posters everywhere with some funny phrases. Maybe even some half-cliches or references to other iconic games, electric devices or futuristic science-fiction series, etc. Example: a poster saying "All your stone castles are belong to us!"; "Do you know how many knights are required to change an oil lamp? The answer is 42."
- Make some old-wood looking doors open like blast-shield doors, opening vertically and doing some hydraulic noise.
- Add some ceiling candelabrum that can turn into a disco-ball for a few seconds.

 

Should add a poster that states "Viva la revolution"

 

Wow these guys are presented very well.
I love rogue species.

 

This race needs eletric maces and cool high tech catapults.

 

So are faulty glitch children created young or standard normal size?

 

It would also be cool if the glitch had lots or body types/armor that resembled that era. Samuri armor would look epic too.

 

I thought the Hytoli were japanese?

 

I'm so excited! This is perfect for me and my plans to cleanse the universe of organics.
"these Glitch are generally thought to be insane"
*mad cackle* When there is nobody left but us, we shall be the sane ones!

 

Ok the Hytoli can get samuri armor.

 

If say a Glitch dies, and is "cloned" are they "remade" since they're built or are they "reborn" like how 2 male and female Glitches can make Faulty Glitch offspring?

If they're reborn does that mean they can now advance now that they're faulty?

if they're rebuilt does that mean that they didn't really die?

 

Stop rocking the boat Beta!!

 

They're probably just reconstructed with something cloned from your dead self.
I really think people are putting too much thought into the logic of the spawn animations in this game.

 

Oh wow. This came out of left field. I really like these race profiles, they're very classy parodies of their stereotypes. And DAT ARCHITECTURE. So hard to not want a Glitch. Maybe I'll be a Floran in Glitch abodes?!

 

Wow. I hadn't realized how true that was.

 

My hope is that Tiy does something like a remote link to a body rather than having both 'mind' and body. Your 'mind' as a glitch will be stored somewhere on your spaceship or station and you will experience the reality that is Starbound through a remote link to a mechanical body.

 

Robots with medieval style, did not see that coming

 

Oh, I might as well do this now.

inb4 Hylotl are land-lovers.
