This decision to wage battle against the old world was made consciously.
In other words, we possess the power to go Maverick at will!

Is there something obvious that I missed, or what?

Capcom [tornado fang]ing up story lines. It's like saying you can go insane at will

No seriously, i think he meant a reploid can want to wager war against humans, and not do do just because of infection of the sigma virus. Ie, can turn against humans because he wants to, without infection.

Or at least that's what I can guess haha.

Btw, i always wanted to ask; in the intro of RMX6, what was "and a Man is.." supposed to mean?

I'm pretty sure it's all part of the script. just that some are more confusing than others.

"We can go maverick at will" basically says that he can do whatever the hell he wants, because he's without a restraining bolt of the X series.

Secondly, "and.. a Man is.." is just a cathprase from Capcom trying to be badass too.

Well, it's dumb. Who was the Man btw?

That still doesn't make sense when you consider reploids were explicitly stated to have free will. Unless Lumine was talking about "Maverick" the way Repliforce was considered Maverick...

Then, of course, there's

I shall allow you to call me by that name, for I am indeed Sigma.

Reploids were allowed to have free will; just that the old models had a little bit of it, meaning they can't be bad in any way, so their AI was limited until Copyroids showed up.

"For I am indeed Sigma", is prolly just a wannabe copyroid trying to be badass too, cute capcom, cute.

Second question. Why would anyone want to have a bunch of Reploids that could imitate Sigma? Lumine gave an in-story reason, but imitating a Ride Armor would have made more sense...

Gaia · **Reply #8 on:** June 26, 2009, 02:56:50 AM

Ask and you shall receive.

First off, whoever wanted a bunch of Reploids to imitate Sigma was either crazy, or just trying to be cool to impress X. instead, that pissed him off.

Second, Sigma was a powerful combat reploid, but was also a badass at the same time, and people respected him for that before "the virus" made him an evil badass. but, that was Cain's mistake in the first place, aye?

I always took this line as being foreshadowing to what Gate was up to in X6. He was the first face highlighted after that "dramatic tension" moment, and it makes sense that as the main antagonist, he's doing something unspeakable.

Just my crazy 2 cents.

HyperSonicEXE · **Reply #10 on:** June 26, 2009, 03:12:49 AM

The first time I played X6, I thought Capcom was trying to imply that humans were going Maverick due to the virus, and I was thinking:

"Oh ho, here comes the 'X has to choose whether to be a Pacifist or actually wipe the floor with their butts for the greater good.'"

Nope. Just trying to be EDGY LOL

It's...Gates (I almost forgot his name).

Since well, he was the once that fiddled w/ Zero's thingy and went all, "HIS THINGY ROCKS!!!" and stuff.

makes sense to me.

I kinda liked that this never happened though. Imagine how bad the fandom would be if X had to start ~~killing~~ retiring humans.
