Damn he really has a hard on for robot waifus doesn't he? Alright, I'll play ball. The story is built around members of the 6 races arriving in Eorzea. With me so far? Now, the very same cutscene plays for every player (legacy members exempted) We all arrive from out of town as adventurers alongside Alisae and Alphinaud. From the get go, if we were escaped Allagan creations, this scenario would not mesh well. Where did we come from?Not a big deal for the 6 races, we just showed up. For an Allagan creation, oh you better believe they'd need a super special snowflake cutscene marking their reactivation. Secondly, Allagan creations are already mysterious and usually dangerous. Thier damn record books are worth milliions and are hoarded like kings randoms (tomestone i n case you didn't realize it) So now you're telling me that a living walking automaton of Allagan design would go completely unmolested and infact you and their numbers are just completely accepted as functional members of Eorzean society? They'd be captured and ripped apart and sold for sultans fortunes day by day!. Third, regarding the blessing of light and Hydalyns involvement. As an artificial life form, I sincerely doubt the mothercrystal, giver of life and part creator of living beings would embue her light into a machine creature. Also, our echo abilities which make us immortal, why would they just keep inhabiting a android body when each time we die we respawn with a new body? If it's Allagan made, our echo would result in acquiring another flesh and blood body, removing the entire point of your race in the first place. The entire point of what makes us so special is our echo ability alongside our super high stat boost form the blessing of light. Our ability to cheat death, see into other peoples lives, and even inhabit the line between dimensions isn't something that a mechanical body would do. It just wouldn't keep. Fourth of all, Allagan creature or Allagan ourselves, we would be hated with a fury unbenowst to any other being on Eorzea when brought up to the dragons, plus it would absolutely destroy the Crystal Tower storyline. Plus I sincerely doubt a machine of the race responsible for the destruction and enslavement for 3/7 children would go over too well with Grandpa Middy.
