What's the proper term for a prosthetic everything-but-the-brain?

>>48725456
Cyborg, same as any other human with prosthetic limbs

>>48725456
A lot of people will recognize the use of Shell from your own pic related. Another easy term is 'full body cyborg'.

>>48725456
Jarhead. Too bad that's taken.

>>48725456
Fullborg

>>48725473
>>48725479
>>48725483

No, not the *person* who has a prosthetic everything-but-their-brain. What is the proper term for the object the cyborg wears/is plugged into?

>>48725456
'True cyborg' as a person who can't survive and continue living without augmentations. Taken from Orion's Arm setting

>>48725568
Prosthetic body.

>>48725597
Prolly this

>>48725568
Shell (again), prosthetic body, man-chassis, "my other pants", "the other other white meat", "something less comfortable", go nuts with it.

>>48725456
Full-body prosthesis.

>>48725456

Robocop

>>48725456
A Motoko.

>>48725456
A robot with a human brain.

>>48725568

Thats called a full-body prosthetic. You have replaced every part of yourself but the brain with hardware. Its just like having an advanced prosthetic limb, but taken to the extreme.

Knowing the origin of the phrase "ghost in the shell" makes this extra interesting.

So basically what does Robocop call his body? Exactly that, a "body"

No, what does Robocop's doctor/engineer call Robocop's body?

I guess it would be a full-body prosthesis or a shell or something?
On a side note: I don't think a brain in a suit can be considered a "human" anymore- A person definitely, but not a human.

Also thank you OP- you've reminded me of how absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous the original 1995 ghost in the shell is, but on the other hand it's given me context on how.. The new one is kind of ugly?

the two oshii films and the original manga are the only good-looking entries in the franchise anyway (and in very different ways), it's just down to who's in charge of it and how much money they have to play with.

I'd say SAC was pretty good looking. Not a shine on what you mentioned by any means, but still very nice looking.

i don't mean it was bad, it was well animated and stuff, but no particular shots or sequences really jumped out at me. admittedly it's been a while and it has some heavy competition like you said.

If you have a full body prosthesis, you can get your brain into a different set of otherpants, like #3, either because you got bored of your previous looks (in the movie you can see Mokoto's shell isn't a unique model) or because you're pretending to be someone else. Infiltration.

The doll one...stop fooling yourself. Watch the movie. It explains all you're asking, and you'll love it regardless.

How about prosthetic everything including the brain? A robot?

>>48737250
The Mayor's brain is also cybernetic, barring a few clumps of neurons.
This leads her to question her status, and whether or not she's a fully cyberized human, or a full robot that thinks is human, especially because there's a hacker that can rewrite people's memories in order to make them work for him.
And then she meets a full AI that is very arguably alive in the real way.

>>48737250
A wife.

It's called a body shitlord. Don't project your bionormative ways onto a beautiful cybernetic being.

>>48737284
>The Mayor's brain is also cybernetic, barring a few clumps of neurons.

This is a thing which already exists and it's called a hybrid robot, or hybrot.
Presently it's rat neurons controlling robot bodies.

you mean the scene with shots of a display mannequin that also looks exactly like her? (not to mention the recurring basset hound)
it's symbolic, not literal.

I was merely providing the source for >>48737575 , assuming it was the same anon. Maybe I should have quoted better.
What do the bassets represent, however? I don't know the irl purpose of such ugly dogs.

>>48738127
Probably another metaphor.

An animal bred for a highly specific task that isn't used for that task. Unless I'm forgetting fox hunting being a huge thing in neotokyo

oshii puts basset hounds in i think every one of his films, he loves that breed of pupper i guess.

in this film specifically the connection seems pretty clearly related to identity and self in some regard. in addition to appearing there while the major is grappling with her own doubts (and perhaps acting as omen for the appearance of the puppet master driving those fears to a head), they show up in these two shots, both from the sequence where the garbage truck guy is being told that his memory is manufactured.

"Full-body prosthetic" or "whole-body prosthetic?"

>>48738255

I think that kind of dog is meant symbolize "life" in his works.

>>48738347

>On a side note: I don't think a brain in a suit can be considered a "human" anymore- A person definitely, but not a human.
I'm inclined to agree, depending on how advanced the artificial organs are. Living without an endocrine system would mess with your mind.

>>48729616
>I don't think a brain in a suit can be considered a "human" anymore- A person definitely, but not a human.

I've always been allergic to any definition of 'human' that involves the clause 'ass must be made of bacon'. Humanity is a set of ideals, not a carbon count.

It's been a while since I read it but I'm pretty sure 1 and 3 are both manga. 3 is the body that one of her children/copies uses after she seeds the Internet with herself.

namefagging without a reason lowers the quality of posts, and low quality posts are against the rules. You shouldn't be concerned with that unless you intend to do the same.

Back on topic though, what systems even support something like a full body prosthetic? Something like shadowrun you'd die of essence loss before you were even halfway there.

Eh, a quick check of the rules says that while high quality posts are encouraged, low quality posts actually aren't even implied to be against the rules

Mind you I lived through the Nazimod so anything on topic and not against the rules that gets deleted sets off alarm bells to me, especially anything that's subjective and without Mod announcement

>Back on topic though, what systems even support something like a full body prosthetic? Something like shadowrun you'd die of essence loss before you were even halfway there.
As >>48742931 said Eclipse phase is made for this, GURPs can do it of course, but you'll probably want something more built to it
