You sound like you want Vickie to be like a japanese idol for Home, or at least sodium. Vickie was pretty impressive for the time but Home has developed. Hopefully Vickie will be developing with it!

Now we just need to find someone to voice/sing for Vickie so we can get the whole idol thing off the ground. lol.

As usual, great read Bonzo. Vickie actually makes me think of the digital artist Michaelo, although his cyborgs ARE a lot softer than Vickie. I’m not sure Vickie references all these staples as science fiction as much as she has been inspired by them. I love how you took an NPC from Home and have built rhetoric around it, giving it a deeper meeting than titillation.

I actually considered using Vickie for the picture in my “Fetish Indulgence” article for Mechanophilia here on HSM but decided to stick with what avatars could actually wear. Soon Vickie will join those ranks!

I can’t wait for this icon to take center stage of the Sodium universe!

There needs to be a Robert Palmer “Addicted to Love” tribute machinima featuring a whole bunch of performers in VICKIE bodysuits.

Seriously, this needs to happen.

Brilliant read Bonzo, and I’m gonna have to check myself here so I don’t prattle on like a giddy school girl. But Sci-Fi, old or new, fascinates me. Robotics (especially girly robots heh) also fascinate me. I too had the same stream of “wowness” when Sodium came along, it just burst my mind. That this is what Home should be doing, where it should be heading. In all honesty I don’t think they’ve done enough with Vickie, and why exclude her from the S2 events? I’d loved to have seen her wave a scarf at the start of the S2 races, 50’s Greeser style, y’know.

I wouldn’t say that Sodium would be the same without Vicki, she’s an integral part of the whole scene, and I love the idea that she’s “with you” regardless of where you go in the area too, like a feminine HAL lol. I think a more fluid interface with her would’ve worked wonders, maybe like a speech tree instead of just a basic menu system; but then given Homes limitations when she was created it’s understandable.

I hope to see lots of Vickis walking around soon, I might even get one myself!
