Why are Vy'keen so disrespectful?

[bvrakvs]

I got to the highest rep with them, they still call me a pathetic coward, I should slap each one of those clowns

[gNg]

Maybe they'd change their opinion if you did slap them?

Well for one thing, they dont know you. They are like Klingons in Star Trek, gain their respects and things will get better. Idk opposite race seem to have more negative effects, but it can get better once you gain more favors toward them.

I am saying that already, I have super high rep with them, still getting harassed by peasants in trade hubs

The Vykeen call you a pathetic interloper, the Korvax see you as a curiosity to be studied and the Gek are only interested in you for your money. They treat us all like that, so why take it personally? It's not like you're being singled out for abuse.

I agree there ought to be more rewards for having a positive reputation, but I could think of more useful things than politeness.

Not that I'd expect politeness, but they are actively insulting a dude who has done a ton of good, maybe they all talk to each other in the same manner, but then how do they even function as a civilization, weird lore there really

In general, the game writing is weak and feels unfinished. Sad, but true.

They are warriors and they can certainly tell that you're not that's why you don't get any respect. Being a warrior is their culture They respect your weapons but you have done nothing to gain their respect you're not a warrior you're pathetic in their eyes. Also what kind of respect do you want you think they should bend over and kiss your backside why do you feel so entitled that you need to be respected? Remember you're the new kid on the block you haven't been there for centuries over centuries, they have.

If you are a "Manager" at a business office, and you're just walking around the building - and someone in the halls ran into you and didn't know who you were at all - they'd likely not treat you with the same respect and admiration than if they knew you were at the company for years on end, was really good at your job, was a 'higher-up' personnel... this is the same thing x100 because they are on the spectrum and mainly respond to chest-beating and grunts and powerful displays of strength somehow (note: not wisdom). That's their 'role' in this game

(Remember, it's a game. They are 'supposed' to be that way. They are supposed to be jerks and judgemental unless you go around kicking the arse of every one you see [because that's the only way they will respect you] - but the game doesn't allow you to do that - and again, it's not realistic for Vykeen Worker #56729 on Planet Faraway to automatically know you have killed billions of Sentinels and have done so many quests you co-own the Faction now. It just won't happen, IRL or in the game lol Relax and have fun man) HTH

Make sure you grab a vacuum cleaner with a hose, turn it on and put the hose in your mouth when talking to them. This should get them attention!

[smurfy]

How are they supposed to know your standing by sight before they talk to you? Are you wearing a Vy'keen badge?

There are several encounters with options where your rank will make them respectful, the options only being available at certain ranks.

There are also encounters where you can be violent back to them to earn their respect (usually resulting in getting hurt yourself).

Well, you're not much to look at... They see no honor in who and what you are and you're in the hood dude. You're lookin for friends and personal value in all the wrong places. They are at least entertained by you when you do slap them but it's only momentary.
Maybe you could teach them a few bars of Kumbaya.
