i really hate it when ppl change things that have long been well defined, it wasn't a robotics professor, it was science fiction authors who first coined the term. it was only ever used in relation to androids that looked human because no one could tell if they were human or not. games/training sims/3-d animation do not count because you can easily tell those are not real things. also yes i know english is a living language and definitions change all the time, i just disagree with this one changing like that except maybe in the case of someone with a mental illness who is unable to distinguish reality from fantasy. so any ire i feel about it is not aimed at you or anyone in particular, it's just the usage of the word in a way i feel is incorrect to years of previous usage.Nope. Anything that is of near human appearance counts. Sure the original phrase was a translation of one used by a robotics professor but as the first Google link says "The phenomenon is a consideration in a number of areas of design including robotics, video game art, training simulators and 3-D animation."

Thank you. Yeah, that doesn't fit the "transformation" tag. I can't imagine anybody would consider growing a tail (when other characters are furries) as a genre-defining element, or even noteworthy (and that's after accounting for the diverse range of tastes on this forum).You can decide if the friend is male or female at the beginning and they stay that way.
MC growing a neko tail is the only transformation I know of.
The dev never put the tags on and I don't think it belongs there.
Ah but where does one draw the line? Is someone with a pacemaker a cyborg? An artificial hip? Plastic knee replacement? Or is there some unwritten percentage of body mass that must be reached before we can call someone a cyborg? And even then, a person with artificial eyes is still replacing less body mass than someone with an artificial heart.Cyborgs humans that have been modified with mechanical or biological devices. Either because of trauma to restore quality of life, or to enhance human capabilities.
Actually, I might have thought that too, up until about a year or two ago. A lot of different peoples live in Egypt today, but actual Egyptians are more Middle Eastern than African in origin, and their skin is relatively light.Just my 2 cents... the Egyptian one needs to have way darker skin, being, y'know, Egyptian and all that. Otherwise everything looks great!
Especially if the person is a catAlso, if you google "Egyptian skin tone" you find that there is a lot of debate about that topic.
