I'm sure the choice was intentional given that its sunny disposition betrays the fact that it's a piece of military-grade hardware. While it was a cute idea, I'd rather it be more of a "Target acquired. Kill all humans." type of robot.

The movies are supposed to be the stories that R2D2 is telling to the mysterious Whills in the far future. That's why they all start with "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away".

I can't deal with the idea of R2 having long outlived all his old friends with his memories as the only thing left of them.
He's the real Star Wars protagonist.

BB-8's pretty heavy for its small size, apparently. Finn fell over trying to ease it down into the Falcon's maintenance pit because he didn't expect it to weigh so much.

That's only for the high-end devices. Unless you're -the- little girl or you're high-ranked enough, being a footsoldier in the TSAB entails having what amounts to a talking rifle.

Granted you can probably make small talk to it, but it's not going to roll off your bedside and into the nearest TSAB lab and ask for LOAD CARTRIDGE upgrades.

Alternatively, you can hop over into the Innocent spinoff where your likelihood of getting a special snowflake device is much higher (since it, being, well, card games in virtual reality).

Some devices don't even trace their origins to professional device mechanics.
Bardiche was made by Linith, a goddamn familiar.
Asteion is made by Hayate, Agito, and Rein.
