So I was going through the ships and...

Vexor, Brutix, Dominix, Obelisk, Moros, they all look like giant turds? What gives? I'm seriously thinking about reconsidering my race over this. Caldari and Minmatar both have such intricate and beautiful structures.

It's because they want there ships to reflect there ideology.

You have some very strange ideas about what turds looks like, perhaps you should visit your doctor.

Don't you Caldari scum go down on a bunch of slave running psychos? And you come here and insult my ideologies? I hope you know, this means war.

No, I'm actually pretty sure that the devs took a picture of what was in the toilet after wing night and used that as the models for Gallente ships. One of the devs forgot to pull his pants up when taking his pic and that explains the thorax

Hey, read the Empyrean Age novel.
[SPOILERS]
The Gallente Navy is so incompetent they will actually get pissed off if you...
... obey an intelligent order. Bonus, the pissed off person is the one who gave the order.
... don't die for absolutely no good reason.
... don't play Russian Roulette. Cuz they can't manage clones apparently. Again, the person who gets pissed is the person who's clone got screwed up.
... can't figure out when one of their top admirals has been assassinated and impersonated even while he's flying a fleet flagship supercarrier.

Gallente boats are fine, it's the Revenant that looks like an actual log of poo.

We don't always think about turds, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Amarr ships look like giant bugs.

Makes sense. :D

I like the Moros - it matches my face, name and corp name.

On a side note, from all their lineup, only the Domi and Moros really look like turds - so stating their ships all look like turds is a little far fetched.

Wrong.
Amarr race has different tastes.

For example, people who like fruits usually fly BSs, that's why Apoc and Armag look like a rotten banana.

People who like animals fly Prophecy because it looks like fat pigeon.

On the other hand the word GallenTe has G and T, which means Giant Turds.
It's very very obvious! How couldn't you see that?

It seems like some Gallente ships were inspired by marine organisms. Tristan= cuttlefish, domi,brutix=giant pregnant guppy (same for erebus but some crossbreding), Thanatos=trilobite.. . Ishtar and Myrmidon=tropical fish. Moros looks like something that wallows in water.

Yeeee!

The domi and Moros do look that way although to be honest it's a fairly practical design. Personally I love the way the Vexor, myrm, mega, and hyperion look.

And then there's the Nyx.

I always thought they looked like failed balloon animals.

Some clown somewhere was trying to make a poodle and ended up with the Brutix...

brutix? dunno what food you been eating but it must have had wings.... kentucky fried chicken or xmas turkey perhaps?


the Brutix always reminds me of the Boss at the end of Doom 2

Maybe because they are giant turds?
