Why does MCH have a robot?

[Mistyregions]

I get it, the MCH has gadgets and that's cool and I love it. What I dont get is how we are the only ones with a robot that basically beams in from the enterprise and technology wise is pretty out of place even for allag tech. Where did queen come from?

Because it's cool

[SaberMaxwell]

Stephanivien is our primary gadget maker. So technically Ishgardian tech, probably with some help from Garlond Ironworks.

Their LB3 is an orbital satellite. It's better not to question it.

We can teleport around the world instantly.
We can travel to different worlds
We can summon beings from other dimensions
We can conjure up devastating spells using Aether, which can't be seen directly
We can summon giant beings of Aether and fall under their influence
We have giant floating ships
We have dragons


but a robot didn't make sense...

I've stopped questioning stuff when they gave us flying motorcycles and a Rolls-Royce Cabriolet which can turn into an Jet aircraft

Actually, the car does that in FFXV. So, with the storyline of how we come across it, it fits. What I am wondering is how is the car maintained? I dont trust Cid to make the right parts for the car when we have mostly magitech technology.

The Regalia we can get, the Type-G, was produced by Garlond Ironworks after Cid used his repairs as an excuse to steal the base design and modify it for Eorzean technology.

Hang on a sec. We conjure chocobos, living, breathing creatures, out of thin air wherever we go, including *other worlds*, yet conjuring up a mechanical creation with simple directives is beyond reasoning? How about that giant machine we casually whip out whenever we want to use Air Anchor, Bio Blaster, Drill Shot or Auto Crossbow? How about Black Mages and their explosions? How about summoners and their Egis? How about ninjas and their bunnies? And so on.

Hey, hey, I can perfectly justify the existence of Carby!
