Seems it would have been fitting if Miranda's name had not been changed from the original norse origin.

I don't understand the issue...Is there an issue...?



WHAT IS HAPPENING?! <Biotically charges around randomly.>

[Wintermist]

She was originally designed to be blonde, probably fitting to a more norse name, what was her name, anyway? (Yeah, not all norse are blonde, I know, I live in Sweden )

Hehe nothing really. But a Mech si a walking VEHICLE, only the YMIR qualifies as that. An android is a humanoid robot designed to look male, which I think LOKI is. That's all

Ah, then I have to agree with the name change. <_<

Androids just have to be humanoid, and don't have to look like any gender. Mechs are vehicles only in some settings' terminology.

Nah, that's wrong actually. An android is a humanoid robot designed to look male, a Gynoid is the same designed to look female. Anything else and it's just a robot. Mech is a walking vehicle.

Like I said, it depends on the setting you're in. Android doesn't have to look like anything. As long as its meant to simulate a humanoid shape. The term "mech" isn't even a real word.

No there's really a definition. Android and Gynoid exists. They're are variants of a robot, robot being the main definition. If I saw a robot looking like a female, I wouldn't think robot, I would think gynoid. And as far as mech goes, it is a word by common usage. Much like everything new it had to start somewhere.

This is Bioware's universe, they're allowed to call things what they want.

It only has common usage because that's what they call walking robots you pilot in MechWarrior/BattleTech. BattleTech is not the authority on what the made-up word "mech" means when used in other intellectual properties. In Mass Effect, a mech is a bigass killbot. Get the **** over it.

[Wintermist]

*shrugs* Whatever really. I do disagree though.

YMIR isn't a vehicle either, it's just a larger robot.

Mech is clearly just the commonly used term for a security robot in the ME setting.
