So this is borderline general discussion, but I thought I'd poke at some of the aspects of the Cogmind level/world that aren't necessarily gleanable from the game and may not even have any differential meaning to the player at all.
As we know, the floors of the complex have various machines scattered about that "do stuff" as a player all we can so is blow them up.
My question is: so these machines have a purpose to the NPC bots or are they just arbitrarily machinery?
If the former, what kinds of things do these machines "do"? I don't care if mechanically they sit there looking imposing, I'm interested in the fluff.
I know some of them are matter reservoirs and some are generators, but that's it.
I'm asking because I'm trying to populate my own level with "stuff" and am having trouble figuring out what kind of "stuff" that would be.
