Dev Diary 139: Poll Time!
- YES, Mr. Handy IS the missing race from Fallout 14
- NO, Mr. Handy is just an appliance, nothing better or worse than a dishwasher 13
Hello there, my dear mutants!
I'm excited to share with you a revelation that has struck me like a bolt from the blue. After countless hours of pondering, it hit me: Could Mr. Handy be the missing race we've been searching for all along?
Think about it. We've encountered various races throughout the Fallout series – from humans to ghouls, to super mutants. But what about those trusty, floating, robotic companions we've come to rely on? Could they be more than just mechanical helpers?
Let's delve into this theory a bit deeper. Mr. Handy units are ubiquitous in the Fallout universe, serving as everything from housekeepers to vendors, and even as companions. They possess intelligence, personality, and a knack for conversation – all hallmarks of a sentient race. And yet, they've always been relegated to the role of tools, never fully recognized for their potential as a distinct race.
But today, I'm challenging that notion. I propose that Mr. Handy units are not just machines – they are a race unto themselves, overlooked and underestimated by us, their creators.
To put this theory to the test, I've set up a poll for all of you, my fellow mutants. I want to know what you think: Are Mr. Handy units the missing race from Fallout? Cast your vote and let your voice be heard.
Until next time, stay vigilant, stay curious, and never stop questioning the world around you.
Yours truly,
-PJ & Co
