I was wonder today about G0-T0 and how he came to decide to be on the path he ended up on being his 2 orders were Produce options to rebuild the Republic, Follow all the laws of the Republic. I guessed "Produce options to rebuild the Republic." was his 1st order and took precedence over the 2nd in G0-T0's mind. So I thought to my self if you follow the 3 laws of robotics does that mean G0-T0 effectively developed the zeroth law (or a version of it) to obey. The zeroth law being A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm. obviously just replace "humanity" with "The republic".

Not only does he shoot people, he tortures them most likely for amusement, shown in his statements when you try to have a 'normal' conversation with him.
In ways he's worse then HK in his view on "meatbags", so no, somehow I don't think he follows the laws of robotics. |

Both of them have good voice actors but as character wise, Hk-47's sadistic nature is better put together than GOTO's sadistic nature.
At least Hk-47 is funny.
Regardless How I do feel towards GOTO, I do think his business sense(not his ethic or lack thereof) is very good and very pro Republic. |

I never use G0-T0 anyway because he's so rude.

And he is just as useful as a paper weight. |

The whole idea behind the zeroth law is it allows robots to break the 1st law which is they can't harm humans or through inaction allow a human to come to harm. If a droid is not to let the republic be harmed or through in action let it come to harm then the droid can rationalise that letting a certain person live would be harmful to the republic.
