I'm a little disappointed with the Program line.

When the skin line first came out, I was honestly thrilled because I assumed the theme was anthropomorphic computer programs. But with Camile's release skin, it's clear that it's just another set of robot skins since the background is more like a dystopian Piltover.

Looking back however, I noticed my preconceived ideas were misplaced as Lissandra's background isn't very digital despite her animations.

I guess this bums me out because we have a lot of robot skin lines now. I know robots and cybernetics can explore a lot of genres and themes, but I feel it's getting a little overflowed.

Mecha, Project, Program, and arguably Full Metal (judging mainly with Rammus) are all robotic themed skins.

Great skins in general, but I sadly let my perceptions go further than the truth with the program line.

They may all be robotic themes, but each one is a different take on the idea.

Mecha is based on giant piloted robots

Project is augmented humans (cyborgs).

Program is AI.

Full metal is just supposed to be battle armor I think.

Battlecast is also cyborg, but unlike Project which is about Human warrior cyborgs, it is about Void Creatures and other inhuman things with cyber enhancements.

I think it's weird that people don't realize that each and every one of them is different.

Battlecast have no organic componements, which means that they arent Cyborgs... in fact you can see in the splash art of P Camille 2 BC Velkoz, because they are mass produced robots.

I'm not sure if eternum is robot, but I'll make a note.

I'd edit it if I wasn't using a cell phone.
