Robot Buddy: Difference between revisions

* In the ''[[Fallout]]'' series, the Mr. Handy is a customizable line of robot buddies.

** ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'' gives us ED-E the recruitable Robot Buddy, Rex might count too, though he's only [[Cyborg|half a robot]].

* ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'' has Legion, who manages to be one of the game's two or three [[Only Sane Man|sane individuals]] ([[Mind Hive|for a sufficiently loose definition of individual]]). [[Pronoun Trouble|It]] is something of a [[Warrior Poet]] who makes an effort to explain the culture and ethics of the geth, who were previously assumed to be [[Exclusively Evil]], with [[Blue and Orange Morality|partial success]].

** It also features EDI, who, although not a robot, is an AI that {{spoiler|eventually ''becomes'' the Normandy, giving EDI a true physical presence, allowing "her" to qualify for this trope.}} In [[Mass Effect 3]], in fact {{spoiler|she upgrades to [[FemBot]].}} Seeing as she also is constantly in contact with the player, she feels just like this trope. Arguably one of the best subversions of [[A.I. Is a Crapshoot]].
