Automation Queen? Why?

[MrThinker]

Queen's the best chess piece.

This. The automaton seems to be an upgrade to the MCH turret. The turrets use chess piece names. Therefore, the automaton uses the name of the best chess piece.

Queen isn't a gender it's a title, or name.

Come on your gonna give the giant robots Queen as the default gender? I was gonna name my bot Boyo and have him be my faithful gay bro companion and everything.

Cant you just, leave the gender of the Automation ambiguous like you did with the Puppets in XI? That way we can name and RP our bots however we want

I know you and your playerbase are scared of the concept of big men let alone big robot men but just let us have King and Queen or just no gender at all.

And I know what people are gonna say *Well men can be queens* this is a JRPG and the fanbase is like 80% hetero white dudes, they cant even grasp the concept of a guy being over 200 pounds let alone being a Queen.

I think you're coming off as crass and insulting. First off Cross dressing is revered in Japanese theatre in fact the more beleivably a man could play a woman in the traditional theatre the more respect and admiration they garnered.

Dunno if I should take the thread seriously or not.

I'll take a leap of faith and say nope.

Wait. We won’t be able to name it?

What a waste...

[Skitz470]

Im confused why the title means any exact anyways. I mean the Fae ruler is referred to (quite a few times) as the King of the Fae and yet Titania is CLEARLY a female (and this is even referenced in the game how the ruler is ALWAYS called King) so yeah...just cause the Automaton is called Queen doesn't immediately equate to a female robot. Also I agree that its likely the same as the fact that bishop and rook are (well were in bishop case) chess piece names and thus Queen is also chess reference.

How do we know its called 'Queen' in the first place?
