Why is Eddie Richards named arasaka bot?
Chanathebanana
probably an experimental bot with a construct. I mean it’s arasaka… they don’t really care about morals and ethics lol

The bots at the Arasaka waterfront are weird like that. From what others have told me they’re named after their remote operators bc they aren’t autonomous like the other mechs.

If you kill one, you will see they are mech suites. Eddie Richards is driving it.

Eddie Richards was grafted into the bot like the Big Daddies from Bioshock.

Leave my boy Eddie alone. He’s just doing his thing.

As an actual answer, it’s probably a reference to the ED-209 from Robocop. Why Richards? I don’t know.

How dare you disrespect Eddie like that, robot lives matter

The real reason is it’s a minor glitch. The fun/lore reason is it’s a experimental robot with a implanted construct.

Bot like that are being remote controlled by people, unlike bot that walk around and says, “LOCATING SUSPECTS, FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND REVEALING YOURSELF”

Eddie Richards was a blackjack dealer at the Black Sapphire. One day Saburo Arasaka sat down to play blackjack. He was at 15, and asked for a hit but Eddie forgot to take the joker card and the rules and instructions card on how to play stud poker out of the deck causing Saburo to lose a small fortune.
He had Eddie kidnapped and his consciousness put into a security Droid that was the monetary equivalent to how much money Saburo personally lost.

Maybe an actual full borg conversion, like Adam Smasher, just more weapons platformy than human frame.

Because he’s not called Richard Parker?

“Eddie” is just sounds friendlier than “Ed” or “Edward.”

Perhaps it’s a RoboCop reference… ED-209.

Eddie = ED (209), Richards = Richard (Jone)s. Maybe? Perhaps?

They pulled a Martinez on th guy, and now he’s trapped in full borg working for the company he once tried to take down.
