Man, I don't ship Connor and Hank bc I can't see them having anything other than a father/son relationship but like, you got me with Connor and Hank content. I can't resist a good video, it's my weakness
They are not father and son and never ment to be. And his "son" meant only an appeal of the elder person to the younger, and not that he suddenly began to consider him a son. In Rose's house, the policeman called Adam this way too; is he also his son?
My first time through i didnt solve any of the investigations because i was too focused on the relationship that was forming between Hank and Connor. In the end Connor was deactivated but at least he earned Hanks love.... :'(
White Wolf Warrior I don’t think Hank sees Connor as his son. For Hank, Connor starts as a heartless machine - a reminder of what took his son from him. Connor gradually gains more and more humanity and heart, Hank still saying „There *might* be something to this. *Maybe* you are alive.“ by the conclusion of that progress. I don’t believe Hank could see a nonhuman as a son, and he’d definitely never compare Connor to Cole.
But the way Hank acts towards Connor throughout the game makes me think Hank thinks of Connor of his dead son. But you may see different. This is just what I see and believe but I see where your coming from. 😊
There's a couple of moments in the game where Hank refers or compares Connor to his son. Most notably, when Connor gets his Thirium Pump ripped out in "Public Enemy". If you let Connor die, Hank comes in, picks up Connor with his head in Hank's lap and says, "Hang on, son. We're going to save you." Also, if you die enough times, either at Hank's house before his suicide, at the roof, or in the CyberLife tower, when talking about Cole, Hank says, "Every time you died and came back, you reminded me of Cole." The father/son moments are hinted at pretty hard. Especially with how protective Hank is over Connor. Going after suspects, when the time comes to come face to face with the deviants, Hank tells Connor to stay behind him. Don't run across the highway. Don't get himself killed, even if he knows he'll be replaced. Not to mention, when you do something right, he gives you approval, but if you make a wrong decision, you disappoint him, kinda like a parent. Also, in the Kamski scene. If you kill the Chloe, Hank yells at him. "You're a machine! You're a f*cking machine!" Connor replies: "Of course I'm a machine, Lieutenant. What did you think I was?" Hank stammers, "I thought you...I thought...." What do you think he was going to say there? He thought he was his partner? Maybe. But the emotion implies something more than that: Son. That's how I read it anyway.
*+White Wolf Warrior* "Unrequited love" cliche could help you solve this and combine two concepts together. Connor, as he gets more deviant, starting to secretly fall in love with his mentor, but Hank sees android only as his son/hi-tech pet/partner/buddy to drink with. Our protagonist having romantic feelings for a straight supporting character, but he is too afraid to admit it, because, first of all, it's not a part of his program (and Amanda would gulag him for that), and second, he knows that he will be rejected by Hank (and maybe get punched in the face). Almost canonical 👌 Ah, teh drama.
worldfilledwithmore I just always see them more like father and son. Can‘t help it... 😊 But I also understand that ppl ship them, nothing against Hannor 😉

Hank Anderson It‘s just how they make me feel about their relationship. It‘s totally fine for me if nobody else sees it this way - if others ship them or just see their friendship - but please let me my opinion on this one because I think there is no wrong or right here. It‘s just my personal interpretation that wont change. No offence!
@@joelliepricefield3469 there is an opinion and there is canon and in canon there are nothing like that. How sick must you be to think that hank needs another son. Not a friend, not a partner - son. This is all assisted by the fact that Connor's max Hank relationship is "friend" yet we know that with Kara, Luther, and Alice, they are capable of seeing people as "Family." Listing Hank as "Family" would have been more appropriate if father/son was the intended interpretation, but instead we see them becoming only "Friends".

Игра наглядно показывает, почему у нас не должно быть андроидов, ибо даже робот способен понять, что такое любовь и ненависть. А люди - звери, они не способны нормально взаимодействовать даже друг с другом, что уж говорить о другой форме жизни, которую они снабдили всем спектром человеческих эмоций и возвели в ранг вещи.
@@drayce-el Sorry. Normally I don’t have anything against ships but I just don’t see them as that kind of ship (sorry if that sentence didn’t made any sense/English isn’t my first language)
