@surrealjock replied to your post: i dont think characters like Danse or X6 or Deacon...
Please talk about x6 more. he’s the love of my life and I need more people to show him respect
X6 fucking rules and its fucking bullshit that he doesnt get enough attention from the fandom and it is transparently based in racism that he doesnt get attention when Danse gets so much despite them both being faction-based companions tied to largely unsympathetic factions.
his whole deal as a synth whos entire job is to hunt down other synths and return them to the institute and the questions that raises is super fucking fascinating and his potential to grow outside of what his functions were intended to be is enormous... it sucks really hard that he doesnt get a full arc because i think him having to confront the fact that life on the surface isnt an undending hell and has value would be really fucking interesting to watch and i wish there was more opportunity to question his hero-worship of the father and give him the opportunity to develop his own genuine opinions because i think that potential is really there. he knows he has feelings and emotions and he tries to hide from them through just doing his job but hes not just a machine! hes got shit going on! and i really love that he grows to love the player if hes given a chance to get to know them!! he makes jokes and he pals around!! he has feelings...... opinions........... he just doesnt know the full scope of life bcs hes been sheltered.......... give X6 a chance! thats what im sayin!!!!!!!
