#I lost my innocence when I lost you

[forcedhesitation]

if your response to bhvr laying people off is to post some stale gif and jeer "ME WHEN DBD SHUTS DOWN IN 5 YEARS," you are a cruel, selfish, attention-seeking being with no consideration for how much all these people, and the many more who continue to work on the game, love dbd and try to do the best they can for it despite whatever nonsense bhvr might toss their way. all you give a shit about is that temporary satisfaction you get from seeing what you think is a game you maybe once loved "losing," when really the layoffs did not just impact the staff working on dbd, nor do they ultimately hurt anyone more than those actually laid off.

it actually disgusts me so much how self-centred and nasty people are nowadays. this isn't "entertainment" for you, this is capitalism destroying the lives of hard-working people who are passionate about their craft.

thinking just a bit too hard about how the added depth given to tifa and aerith's friendship only increases the weight threatening to crush tifa after the forgotten capital, she already had so much to carry on her weary shoulders, she's going to have to carry even more when mideel happens, and it doesn't even stop after meteorfall, ohg od oh i love her so much i

I’m glad of the newfound awareness we’re having and I’m aware I’m preaching to a crowd here but what really baffles me is that. there’s some people in this fandom who genuinely wish people they are fans of to go through the pain of a MARRIAGE BREAKDOWN and the abandonment and total life rearrangement that comes with that just because they’re judging someone on the internet and don’t think they’re right for someone else we only know on the internet and through their songs. aside from the total disrespect of autonomy and humanity this is (and has always been, even 10 years ago when it was totally acceptable and unquestioned) maybe make use of some of the things we do know about people from their songs and. don’t EVER wish for someone to have (one of) their greatest fears come true

Hey big fan. How tall do you think the androids in DL are?

Not gonna lie, it's always a bit shocking to hear one has made anything to earn a 'big fan', but thank you very much nonetheless!

As for your actual question, though, I think they're roughly about human height, judging by art? Of course I've gone over how art sometimes varied wildly in height, but as mentioned in that post if you have seen that, Dragalia did seem to try and keep a 'comparison heights' straight, at least. They might not have kept straight if Euden was 4'11 or 5'9 but he was shorter than Ranzal and Luca, etc.

And what we see in the wyrmprints, they seem consistently human in size:

(Well, these are both with sylvans, but sylvans are human in height as well, ears notwithstanding, so the point stands).

As funny as it might have been if every android was big or really tiny, I think it probably makes sense that, being created and wished for them to be 'humans' by Maestro, they resemble humanity as much as possible.

Now, just because Laxi, Mascula, and the androids from their era are human sized, others might not be.

They're a recreation of the older models in another case of Dragalia's humans trying to resurrect older tech, the same tech that made the dragons Very Displeased 1k years ago.

Now, Eireene and Finni, who unfortunately have among my personal least favorite designs in Dragalia, don't really give any indication either of being a wildly different size than Laxi or Mascula. Like this art here, where they are about the same size as Laxi and in a similar 'dwarfed by Ranzal' category most everyone falls into to varying degrees.

That doesn't mean there aren't standouts.

Anassa, for example, seems to carry a much bigger presence in her art. Being something of a commander and command center for the 1k year old model androids, it stands to reason she might have more weapons built in, more data processors, or other things in greater quantity. While we don't have a model or comparative art to truly say for certain that she is bigger, she certainly looks it.

(Does she even have legs??? Is she a roomba that would be foiled by anything over a 15° incline or a sudden height change, ex, stairs??? I mean yeah, doesn't she fly and drop down the one time, but even then, there's any number of environments that might make it awkward or impossible to use it to navigate a hazard.)

Ahem. Anyways, the point is that the general androids, be it Maestro's recreations or their elder Nier:Dragalia -er, Ex Machina, a part of the Humanoid Liberation Agency/the ones living in the sky, seem to be human sized. But there might be a few special model ones out there like Anassa who serve a unique and important purpose to justify the time, energy, and resources designing and creating them to fulfill their goal.

Now, admittedly, androids in Dragalia would be a weak point in my general knowledge since they never really quite struck a chord with me enough to inspire a fixation on them, but yeah, as far as I can tell, they're human-sized with perhaps some rare exceptions. The most I can say that might not be wholly normal is their apparent tendency towards a sort of gaunt build, which, to be fair, it's not exactly as if they can build muscle to change that.

Hopefully that answered your question satisfactorily!

it’s so crazy and dystopian that average conversations these days on social media are abt whether or not a group of random ass people have the right to be alive or if they should all just be indiscriminately murdered and bombed and die the most painful death

I feel such a genuine rage in my heart when someone says 'innocent' when what they mean is 'cute and soft'. Or worse, when they use it to mean 'vulnerable' like ohhhhh my gooooooddd shut uuuuuppppppp!! Stop framing ~delicate untouched innocence~ as some kind of obvious desirable virtue shut up shut up shut UUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!

Innocent fucking means something! It means 'blameless' and when you use it as fucking synonymous with vulnerability and cuteness, You Are Implicitly Expressing the idea that vulnerability and cuteness exempts you from blame and makes you desirable while stoicism and anything 'ugly' is suspicious or at least undesirable.

I hate it. I hate it so much. I especially hate it when it's used to talk about kids, shut the fuck up, stop talking like growing up means becoming ~dirtied~ and ~guilty~ stop saying kids are meant to be perfect little angels THAT'S A FUCKING PERSON and they deserve MORE RESPECT than having their virtue tied to your desire to fawn over them.
