Well, you know how modern fighter jet pilots have flight suits that constrict blood flow to the legs for example during high-G maneuvers so they don't go unconscious? Basically that, up to eleven. About the eyes, do note that the world [i]did[/i] suffer an apocalypse, and still hasn't completely recovered. In my mind, originally Neural Plugs could 'input' what the NCM was seeing 'through' the system, but that particular part of the technology was simply lost, and the only solution the Ruling Companies could find was the very crude system now. You could just use a view port or something, but that offers much less situational awareness, not to mention glass or other see through materials generally just aren't all that durable compared to actual armor.

And yeah, that's sort of what I was thinking on the legs. [s]sure more 2spooky but that works too 100%[/s]

[s]And trying to imply a little that NCM pilots suffer from 'cybernetics eat your soul' a little. And I like grimdark so y'know.[/s]

And about the skeletons, they're not the most notable, but imagine if YOUR bones were replaced by titanium. Do you think you'd ever get 100% used to it? At the beginning, you'd probably move strangely as your body gets used to moving additional weight, and magnets possibly affecting you is always really weird to explain when you're out drinking with your buddies.
