It's been four years since my adopted stray cat died. I still can’t move on from his and my dog’s death. I wish I could finish the game even though it could possibly trigger some parts of my sadness. This game looks interesting anyway, and I wanna know what a cat’s point of view looks like.

Ladies and I relaxing with Stray after a long day of work. Luna (black cat) is intrigued.

— INTRODUCTION —

We all know what the small bots are, like Dav—Bots that have a physically small body yet the same capacity for sentience just as any other bot, but I have to question; What even are the small-bots?

There have been various theories, wide speculation and wild guessing, but let's take it at a different angle;

— HISTORY —

Because of the city slowly becoming a complex, the government had to do something to deal with all the tight holes, sewers, and thousands of sewers and claustrophobic corridors within the cities infrastructure, so they created a smaller, more compact model that was designed to only go in those miniscule spots and manage tight city infrastructure.

Only a tiny fraction of the population of the Small Models relative to the population of the Normal Models got through to inside the main public areas of the city.

— Why "Children"? —

And why they are treated as children? Lets look at that;

They are treated as children because the AIs collective data on humans were strictly under this architecture — "The Kids (Small Bots) have no authority, the Big ones (Us) have authority."

Because of this architecture of the data, the Small-Models are forced into a loop of submission because their data reflects back the same — "I must follow and submit to the orders of the Parental Figures. (Large Models)"

They cannot escape because they were strictly built off the data that the Children (Small-Models) must submit to an Adults (Large-Models) authority.

— The Verdict —

They aren't "Children" by fundamental design, if the Large-Bots were trained off different human data, if children were more supreme—it would be completely different and flipped on it's head; The Small Models have authority over the Large Models.

---

AN EXTRA QUESTION

• Why don't they view Sentinels as Children?

Why? Because they are armed and are built on the data of fundamental authority. They have weapons and are under the control of the Peacemakers, which are directly above Large-Model authority.

The End.

Please no hate 🤣 i've played stray so many times, and i love it everytime 🥰 i wanted to make the kitty and b12 with polymer clay (first time using any sort of clay since i left school 20 years ago) and first time ever using synthetic clay so please be nice 😅 but kitty is done, not perfect by any means but it came out ok 🥲 now onto b-12!

He doesn't have thumbs, so he can't make cocktails yet, but he's good for the vibes ☺️. He was definitely a culture hire.

help please i just want to complete the frigging game

I asked Chat for a storyboard, and while it isn't a very good storyboard, it helps get the point across. I'd like a Stray 2 game where our kitty family was abducted and taken to another city, and so as we, the orange kitty, explore through the woods we could find some robots who point us in the direction of a train to the other city. Maybe these woodland robots have heard messages from B12, and bring him back to life in a new body, (now he's B13, get it?) And so we get on the train with B13 and have to find our family. Maybe the kitty family was taken because scientists were able to see the abilities of our kitty inside the previous city via surveillance footage and realized the potential of these animals to save future cities, but the scientists were intercepted by the programmed robots that wish to keep them all trapped.

Just my thoughts, please share what you think!
