Shepard Quest Mk VI, Technological Revolution

Um, cyberware maybe? "Wetware" refers to actual brain tissue, and unless you mean that getting the Magi implant means grafting another brain on top of your actual brain, then you probably mean cyberware, hardware, or just implant

Derp, cyberware installed in you wetware. :oops: Mind the Magi is so complex, advanced and integrated that the brain does kind of treat it like an extension.
 
Too bad Jack is so young. I always wanted to romance her in the games with my Shepard but apparently she wasn't into it despite saying she was in bisexual relationship before. *grumbles.*

I guess when you are fighting a galactic war is a bad time to try to discover your sexual orientation though. Probably why it took her three games to decide she was gay. :)

I actually liked that bit when that happened to me when I was playing with my FemShep. While games like ME are kind of fantasy fulfilment, its nice to see characters sometimes have their own agency even in romantic relationship options. Sometimes "not interested" means that she/he is just not interested in you.

Perhaps. I wonder what romance style shenanigans Revy will get into?
 
I'm...hesitant...to see a crazier Jack.

Eh she would only have a not-so-imaginary imaginary friend and some self-image issues. On top of her usual callous disregard for human life, battle lust, general trauma, and lack of socialization. As well as any other issues I may have forgotten.

Helps if people vote to pursue that kind of thing... :rolleyes:. Revy tends to default to busy with stuff (usually science). Mind you did just see Brian off so you know waiting a bit is fine.
 
I had nothing to do with that but I do prefer female partners. Brian and Revy was cute though.

Revy's sexuality was never set in stone (IIRC). Back when I was still a player and the first romance vote came up I rolled a die on my lazy character sexuality chart and got a 14 which was in the bisexual range so I voted that way from then on. Now I'm at the whims of whatever the players vote for. Revy at least likes males though.
 
Awesome. Bisexual Revy is fine with me. I love good romance too, so I would vote for it all the times. :)

It's also a problem, because the only substantive difference between your partial plan and mine, @UberJJK's and @Yog's is that you are spending more money up-front on generic "security" while the rest of us are hiring more security teams and buying drones as part of our Company Actions.

Having track both of you're down no I've caught up with the thread they are surprisingly similar.

They are not however quite the same, I feel that my version of the interview makes Revy seem much more approachable and plays to her good side better than either of yours which in a few particulars, mostly in choosing the lab over the home make for a much more clinical location.

If the only people seeing this interview was Nova's usual group that wouldn't be a problem but this is Revy's first broadcast interview. As a celebrity of some note and a lot of actual worth there are gong to be a lot more viewers outside of the Shows usual demographic and it behoves us to make a good impression on them as well.

Anyhow now I'm caught up:

Some edits that will be made to my plan.

Firstly changing the donations to Yogs

[ ] Offer to donate ten 150GW Arc Reactors to the Post-Scarcity Society this quarter and every quarter afterwards for as long as they are interested. (15m loss per quarter)

As I'd read the 40 TW production line, otherwise the same for the reason previously given

Company Actions:
[ ] PMC
-[ ] Finish set up of PMC as above

[ ] Civil Sector
-[ ] Set up a facilities on Mindoir and hire staff for a new Computing Division to create VIs and Games, Sims and other Software for both VR and drones to take advantage of our new NI and ANI as well as our companies coding and hardware expertise.
--[ ] Licence to proven developers that have an interest and provide incentives for smaller independent developers to work with us.
--[ ] Have a sub division look into using VR for proper and authentic training for dangerous jobs
---[ ] Assign them a suitable quarterly budget for the hiring of specialists to advise on the content of those Sims.
-[ ] Set up a facilities on Mindoir and hire staff for a new Civil Protections Division to sell protective armour and non-lethal weaponry to Police Forces, Private Security and civilians.

-[ ] Include the best security we can produce into the fabric of the buildings and grounds during the building.
-[ ] Assign a Cortana Fork of the same generation as Conrad's to Hawn to assist in his duties.

[ ] Sirta Alliance
-[ ] Expand our partnership with Sirta to include enhancement services for Magi Biotic Amp, basic/advanced neural interface implants and Peak Human treatment, when available. Allocate 1 billion credits to a fund to aid in this project however necessary.

[ ] Security
-[ ] Upgrade our Security Systems in the Factories undergoing rebuilds to the best we produce.
-[ ] Set up quarterly bulk transport of one-time pads for secure comm encryption from headquarters to factories and for bi-directional data transfer between lab complexes allocating 2 million per factory per quarter and 4 million per lab per quarter to facilitate this (28m this quarter)
-[ ] Run a unscheduled Security Test by having Yourself and Cortana feed the systems data about incoming hostiles she should also shut down all on sight communications with the outside world.
--[ ] Warn the local Systems Alliance personnel and Civil Authorities in case some gets a warning out but make sure it's short notice to avoid it getting to your people.

--[ ] Show off our new Deathbots to Kasumi
---[ ] Apologize that there are no chainsaw katanas. :)
-[ ] Buy three sets of Reconnaissance Drones (3m + 300k/quarter)

[ ] Charity
-[ ] Hire a new Investigation team as a sub department to look over any charity requests we receive assign them an initial budget of 50 mil for Alliance Space, 50 mil per quarter for Citadel Space per quarter with priority given to 'humanitarian' (I.e. disaster relief) and educational charities.
--[ ] Assign a further budget of 50 mil for disaster relief only in the Terminus but only available to non-hostile, non-slaving powers.
-[ ] Anything they thing is significant should be passed to the regular investigators for full analysis.

Research Actions
[ ] Optical Computing [49/800]: 100d10+260 (98.09%)
[ ] Hyper Modularity [400]: 70d10+65 (98.23%)

Personal Actions
[ ] Train Biotics
-[ ] Include meditation exercises.
-[ ] Try through our military contacts get recommendation or actual training information on combat biotics for our own protection.
[ ] Install Wetwear

I want to eventually settle on Liara as the final romance. She's who my character stayed loyal to throughout the trilogy.
 
Regarding the setting of our interview I would strongly suggest we do it in our workshop. You know with all the tinkering projects half finished and doodads all over. While being interviewed we can tinker on something, conscript the Show Host into being our assisted and handing over tools and most importantly finishing the project from head to start in the duration of the interview and then gift it to the Show.

They can auction it for a good cause or something.


It would signify our way of not only looking at things but approaching life. Not books on a shelf for display and impressing people but showing something useful. We are not a pretentious asshole, but a maddened tinker that runs on coffee, alcohol and perhaps cigarettes or something similar like all engineers at one point in their life.

I want a bad girl that gets Revy in trouble all the time. She needs a bad influence in her life. ;)

What? Once Revy gets the Corp. properly running so she does not need to intervene she can be the bad girl, recruiting and seducing lost options without a care in the world.

We are going to get that 50 sentient rotation! No one will be able to say no to the glorious self of Revy!

I don't know. I just had this image of Revy being the sheltered nerd girl and her new love interest getting her into all the trouble she missed as a teenager. Yep.

We need to inspire confidence in the public though. This interview isn't going to be limited to Nova's usual demographic and looking like a borderline unstable person isn't good when we want to work on peoples brains, genetics and be allowed to play with dangerous technology like AI's and WMD's in future.

We need to be approachable and show off Revy's best qualities and that's best done in a more intimate setting like a home.

Not as much as sheltered as obsessive, consequent, thorough and dedicated. Up until now her main focus was Machines and building them.

If she focuses on sexual exploration I would bet Revy is going to be that kind of person with a notebook cataloging every sexual encounters, acts performed, tools, enhancers lubricants both social and physical etc.

All done nice and proper by species, race, parent culture, subculture, by enjoyment quotient, density of numbers, time, emotional and material resource investment, all that. Everything will be experienced and done until her notebook gets at least every achievement.

Revy never left anything unfinished. Its just that this aspect was never given enough attention. Now once she has enough focus for her own personal growth that is now currently concerned on survival, security and spread of influence not enjoyment and discovery of perfect romantic activities and potential partners.

You do not thrust auto mechanics? Why do you even ride a car? I mean a interview in a garage. Think of it like a Pimp My Ride episode.

Of you really want to get meta with Revy's preferences, her gender is Sufficient Velocity Collective Consciousness.

Her sexual preferences are in increasing order:
Robots
Giant robots
Men/Women
money
Shiney
Explosions
and lastly, Science.
