Tycho *is* evil

In Response To: Re: Remember Tycho?..... (SnowCrash)

: Well, I suppose that most people would consider Tycho the evil AI, but this
: might be like that just because Tycho's colour is aggressive red and the
: player is with Durandal most of the time (especially in M2).
: The worst missions the player has to accomplish though, he's send on by
: Durandal (If I had a Rocketlauncher). After playing the Tycho Plank in
: RubiconX my view on Tycho changed quite a bit.
: He uses the Pfhor for his purposes just like Durandal does the Bobs and the
: player. So, their means are quite similar. Tycho tries to prevent the once
: rampant Durandal from becoming an almighty god.

Tycho, IIRC, is trying to beat Durandal to becoming a god. Tycho wants to beat Durandal to beat him. I see Tycho as a punk who just wants his way. Durandal was at least reserved about it.

: If I were Tycho I wouldn't
: want that to happen either. Tycho was the science AI onboard the Marathon.
: He's definitely more rational than Durandal.

I disagree with this too. Durandal was the one who predicted nearly everything and finally trapped the W'rkncacnter. I always saw Tycho's clone as flippin' crazy. He acts exactly like the Pfhor do: killing and threatening everything. Durandal may have been a ruthless killer, but he just ignored people he did not like. Tycho was always killing people.

: Maybe if he had chosen
: another colour he wouldn't be such a bad guy.

Red does not always mean evil either. Just FYI.
