I think my favourite thing about the story so far (just started NG++) is the emphasis the game gives to 621 and Ayre becoming friends.

Besides Walter spelling it out in the Liberator ending, I think Carla's line about how "You lost someone too" in the Fires ending is pretty impactful. 621 basically spends all their time in the mech, I doubt Carla has even seen them in person. Yet, when Ayre leaves them, Carla can sense that 621 is acting unusual, like they are missing someone. Similarly to how she's missing Chatty.

I want to bite.
