What I'm wondering about, after perusing Unwired and Emergence;
Do Technomancers actually create anything of lasting value in the matrix? Sprites and threaded CFs are both rather impermanent, and even CFs are still very personal. Could a TM build a Node, set up programs for it, maybe IC/Agents? Or are they really just sort of parasites of the matrix? Revelling in their superior hacking skills, but not really contributing anything? |
