TheUnknownD Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) I'm really hoping in a quest like the sacrifice will finally tell us why there are male and female warframes. Or was it in one of the previous quests that told us but i simply forgot? I like to think that warframes are just robot humans and they are empty in the inside and we (The operators) Fill their insides. ❤ and our insides are inside us but its now inside the robot human thing too.

rapt0rman Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Because humans (and by extension, future post-humans) have an obsession with making things "in their image", and are more comfortable with concepts they recognise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Krism- Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Because the warframes are designed for their Operators. So when the Orokin decided to make a warframe for a girl, they would design said warframe to have a female appearance. 'Cause yeah, they're just skins, warframe don't actually have a gender, at least until The Sacrifice comes out to tell us more about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger_Of_OwO Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) I don't remember where i heard this but, warframes are the children of the ten-0 zariman. The last line of defence from the sentient. So the Orokin built the exo-skeleton around them and later produced them in numbers. I could be wrong but that's what I think I heard. Found it "The Tenno were created in an incident long before the war, during the so-called "Void Era", when a ship called the Zariman Ten Zero became involved in a void-jump accident that sent it lost in the chaotic sub-dimensional space known as the Void. When the ship reemerged from the Void and was recovered years later, the only survivors found were children, whose exposure to the Void's energies had twisted and changed them, giving them inexplicable powers and abilities. Feared and reviled, the survivors of the Zariman nonetheless were of great interest to the Orokin." It's in the wiki for the Tenno Edited February 25, 2018 by harbingerofdawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gweredith Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 To fit their original tenno owners' genders. Even in the distant future there still are only 2 genders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railgun Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Each first prime frame was made for a specific operator (Ember's operator was female, Frost's was a male, ect), the ones that followed were modeled after the prime frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapt0rman Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) There's not really any evidence that warframes are built for particular tenno (or that the gender is relevant). Rather, all of the Ballas voiceovers for the primed frames seem to imply that he's doing a full on sales-pitch of a product, and that everything including the gender is just part of how it was designed. Though it could very well be different then how the original zariman warframe/tenno came to be. Edited February 25, 2018 by rapt0rman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune_me Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Because if I was to build my very own humanoid looking bio-suit, I would make it look like Saryn too. And if I had been a woman, I would probably build it to look like Rhino with that impressive crotch-piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rapt0rman Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Really, for all we know, the kids didn't have any say in anything, at all.

There is tons of headcanon to make fans "squee" but a lot of us want the information from DE, preferably in the form of quests and in game lore, like the Cephalon Fragments, Kuria and such.

I'm confused....is in-game dialogue not DE provided? O_o The Helminth literally comments on your Warframe in ways that, along with the Nidus storyline, and Operator comments on Infested being "Orokin experiments gone wrong", it leads us to believe Warframes are, at least in part, Infested tech. I honestly believe that Warframes are like the Avatar of this universe. They represent something from every faction. They have Grineer clone-tech, plus armor. Corpus Shield tech and the Technocyte, along with general high tech shtuff. And Infested biology that helps them grow and heal fast. Orokin explains the void channeling, and there you have it. OP Weaponframes. This explains why some Eximus units in different factions exhibit TRAITS of Warframes, but never contain COMPLETE sets of their skills. Imitated, but never duplicated.

It doesn't matter because it's not DE's word. However from a non-lore viewpoint giving the characters sexes makes them more relatable to the human players. To humans neutrality is mostly a questionable ground and confuses people. So to give characters sexes and appearances it gives them personality, which allows the audience to emphasize with them. -Then you could say that this ties in with the product part of the frames. But again fan-theory. Edited February 26, 2018 by Postal_pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
