No, it didnt, it was a hamfisted attempt of an explanation.

The loving backstory MADE it make sense.

Explain to me how because of a glitch, the robot people decided to act like they're in the iron age makes sense

"The Glitch were part of a program invented by an unknown race of enormous intelligence, they were built as a means of simulating the social and technological progress of a civilization.

These experiments took place in a vast number of regions across the Universe, despite changing a plethora of variables each civilization eventually destroyed itself when its technological progression began to overtake its social progression.  All but the Glitch.

For reasons unknown a fault caused the Glitch to become stuck early in the simulation, where they now remain. The experiment long abandoned, the Glitch are unable to shake their Medieval values and beliefs. They’re entirely unaware of their origin and are built to experience the feelings and desires of any other sentient organism.

The Glitch reproduce by finding a mate and physically building a new Glitch together. Occasional faults in this process has caused Glitch to be produced free from the limitations of their programming. Entirely self aware and full of advanced knowledge, these Glitch are generally thought to be insane and are hunted, imprisoned and executed.

Small numbers of  faulty Glitch have managed to escape their homeworlds and set up villages amongst the Stars."

The Glitch = insane robots who like knights of the round table and stuff

The way it looks like you're trying to avoid the point gives me the impression that you didn't even bother reading the backstory, because of the complex-sounding words it uses that are too difficult for your handicapped brain.

How about some creative races instead of catering towards furries?
right bc everyone knows TES was made for furries

qwep we get it, you do not like the glitch's premise, that's quite jolly but for the love of the loving emperor don't shove it down others' throats you will only come off as an angry teen and the empire doesn't like those.

just a friendly reminder, cheers~

Guys, obviously the backstory says some Glitch are free of the medieval thought process, because of a Glitch in the process of reproduction/their parents building them. These are the High Tech, cool guys. The rest are medieval.



Did any else think of the "Robots" movie when reading how their reproduction worked?

I read the backstory. Some super-intelligent race got really bored and created a grand social experiment using robots. Brain boyz got dead, robots stagnated for "reasons unknown", and now they're midieval peasants just because. Some of them also aren't midieval peasants for equally paper-thin reasons.
tl;dr? "hurr they dark age because reasons"

yes

Yeah that must be the only sure-fire reason he doesn't like the race

How about you address my point instead of being a little stuff towards somebody who disagrees with you?

right bc everyone knows TES was made for furries
I never said that. When furries suggest fox/cat/dog people and the developers put them in, that's called catering towards them. They should add things that actually require imagination instead.

what
the game isn't even out yet, nothing is official.
tiy stated there will not be exactly six races upon release, because they intend to alter some of it/take suggestions from the community

You're obviously not getting it either.
