What enemy do you wish was real? What enemy do you wish was real? If it's not here, then it means it's a stupid dumb enemy, or a robot enemy. |

I picked the one that wasn't dangerous, the VOrticon.

I've never really considered it.
I hadn't thought about it before, but it wouldn't be any of the ones on your list (no matter how stupid you may think that decision is).
It would be cool to have a poison slug if you could house train him. A foob would be a cool pet, except for the low life expectancy (from natural causes). A yorp would be great for bringing to school and freaking out people, but it's peripheral vision kinda sucks. A tater trooper would be a great bodyguard for everywhere except the cafeteria.
I think I'd have to go with a bounder. Not only is it always happy, but it's an excellent mode of transportation (and can give you an extra little edge when playing basketball).

Next morning, the cheese was gone, and no mouse in the trap. Did the same thing everyday for three months trying to catch that critter, but no luck. Wasted all my Parmesan in the process, too." |

I agree with Ilsoap about the bounder

Re: What enemy do you wish was real?
Only one bad thing about the bounder is that he would bounce around breaking everything. A Yorp would be good though.

Re: What enemy do you wish was real?
I'd have to say Yorp, for the sake of having an intelligent pet and one that's also friendly and can be easily hidden.

Re: What enemy do you wish was real?
The great Brewhaha hath finally come before us.
Slightly crazier than is usual for him.
Does anyone remember him? He was the one who wrote "Peter at the Orthodontist".

Re: What enemy do you wish was real?
How about the M&M robot from Keen2. He doesn't hurt you and you can have fun riding him up walls. He's just a little dumb.

2. Why does no one seem to choose berkiloid?

Re: WHy
Okay, why isn't Mortimer McMire up there? I mean, there have been robot duplicates, but he does exist. And I wouldn't exactly call someone with an IQ of 315 stupid or dumb. He's also the main villain of the series.
Not that I'd choose him though. I think Slicestar should be up there. Sure, the slicestar's a villain with very little explanation as to how it got there, but think of all the potential it has.

Are you guys Nuts?!
I'm sorry, but i'm gonna have to go with a Babobba (forgive me if i'm crossing the line by mentioning a VI enemy, but...) they'd be soft, cuddly, able to defend themselves, and if they get tired they can bust out their cute widdle blankees ^_^ i loved those guys... all the VI enemies were my favorites, by far. i'm not gonna name 'em all, for obvious reasons, but the blue eyeball with wings, the yellow reflect-o-teeth, and the blue ear-up-top are all very cool ideas for real things. i've still gotta go for the Babobba though... they're so cute!

Re: Are you guys Nuts?!
Xky; it's okay, you can mention them (even CC314 does now, though without pictures).
I guess some things have changed since you were here last.
Maybe it's because everybody realises now that there's no legal way to get Keen6 anymore...
The reason I didn't choose Babobba is because they're obviously dangerous to touch (probably they have poisonous skin), and because of those sparks they throw.
Although if I could get rid of those qualities somehow...
Well, you have to remember that Babobbas grow into Bobbas, who may not be able to fit in your house.

About the dying-when-you-touch-them thing...
That'd make every Keen enemy besides the Bounder, Blooglet, Mimrock, Vorticon Children, and the red Service Bots (and probably a few others) unlikely choices...
i picked the Babobba just coz they LOOK cool :-) and besides, they only shoot the sparks when they're on patrol... just like the big Bobbas. i'm sure in domestic life they're pretty tranquil, and soft *grins*
your point about growing into a Bobba, though, is very well justified... *laughs* not sure what i'd do with one of those... but seeing as how there were only 2 in episode VI, and they appeared only in Hard mode (right?) i'd guess it takes them a looong time to get that big. :-) at least i'd hope so.
either way i still want one... i wonder if they bark ^_^

a random note about Keen VI...
does anyone know WHY they had higher-res pictures of the Flect and Orbatrix in the manual? their pictures look very different from how they appear in-game. Even the Hazard signs and Gems have upped-dpi's... *shrug* they sure look cool, either way ^_^ i only ask because i recently re-found the manual (it's been useless to me since i memorized the names in 4th grade lol)

Re: I've never really considered it.
Nope, I think the Yorps are the coolest enemies (although they are not dangerous)

Re: Are you guys Nuts?!
You'd have to feed the Babobba a lot of gasoline and gas prices are getting higher....*really, after watching them shoot a lot of fireballs, they closed their eyes and started drinking gasoline*
