(look at masquerade comic before reading)
His face looks humanized:
I guess it depends on who built him and with what purpose.
Or if he simply changed his appearance from the typical omnic face to look more human.
Typical omnic faces here:
I think he was and always was an Omnic; probably more advanced in appearance than most other. I believe there are more like him. It also depends where he was built, who had built him, who designed him, and what his initial purpose was.
From what we know, Omnics became sentient at some point and began to take control over their own lives. Why wouldn’t that include advancing their appearance as a whole?
I’d personally choose googly eyes over looking more human, but that’s just me.
^ Clearly the superior design choice ^
I agree. Max had one job. One job.
My thoughts exactly.
Luna too, looks more humanlike than the average omnic. And she’s an entretainer.
I find myself amazed that image has not prompted outrage at the obvious human-omnic romantic relationship.
Yeah, lots of people talking about Tracer x Widow when that short came out.
The omnic x human subject was mostly cast aside and forgotten.
I guess it makes him look way cooler.
Certainly
Damn he looks fine. w
I’d think relationships would have been one of the Omnics features in both the romantic and a non-romantic sense.
It’s unlikely most things a robot would be doing would actually need true AI.
Relationships on the other hand might require it.
People might buy/hire Omnics like Bob for example to care for their children.
Omnics would also have to had some appeal for people to accept their existence in the first place as they could easily cause massive unemployment.
I’d assume Omnics generally don’t look like humans fully because they aren’t permitted to do so not because they can’t.
Max is actually Widow’s husband CONFIRMED.
Max looks like an evil version of the standard omnic model. He’s not a human in disguise.
I feel like Max and David Xanatos would get along quite well together.
interesting how from waiter or crupier maximilien became talon leader. looking at waitron (its newer model maybe), they are just staff without own mind. And when it used lower jaw when it was waiter or crupier. Or maximilien had own mind and personality to entertain people? what?
i dont think so, but in kings row omnics are slaves
in factories, everything is possible
I think he experienced what some Omnics call, “The Awakening”. It’s the term used to describe the process of an AI being gaining sentience beyond it’s programming. In other words, it’s when a robot starts to “live”. It gains it’s own thoughts, opinions, makes it’s own decisions, and even displays it’s own emotions.
Somewhere along the line, Max experienced this. That is when he became more than a casino worker. That’s when he became his own person.
… Pretty sure that’s what happened, anyways.
Either way hes a high functioning Omnic and has naturally taken on characteristics that suit his lifestyle, he doesnt seem like the kind of character to be directly involved in battle so he can afford himself some nice duds and a bit of a hair piece situation.
Also from what it seems he is heavily involved in situations surrounded by people so his more human qualities serve to only “humanize” him in an effort to blend in.
Not to mention his affiliation with talon means he would have to have a more unique identity to other omnics since to obtain a seat of power (in our world as well as theres it seems) you have to look and dress the part.
+1 for the Gargoyles reference
