The Technomancer
Date: 2020-08-02 01:44 am (UTC)Media: Video Game
Approx length: 20-30 hours, or ~4 hours to watch the cutscenes on youtube.
Where to find it: Steam or GOG for PC (Windows only), on PS4, and Xbox One.
What is it, in summary? A post-apocalyptic sci-fi RPG set on Mars. You play as Zach, a newly-graduated technomancer who quickly gets caught up in a conspiracy and has to go on the run, enlisting other factions for help. There are 5 companions to recruit, 3 of whom are possible romance options.
What do you love about it? The worldbuilding! The lore! The characters! The main locations you can visit (Ophir - the capital city of the Abundance corporation, Noctis - a secret city built into a canyon, Mutant Valley - a settlement built by escaped mutants, who are more or less treated as slaves by everyone else) are stunning, each with rich origin stories just waiting to be delved into. The characters are complex and interesting, even the NPCs and side characters. I don't want to go into more details about Andrew and Niesha who I've requested in my sign-up, because they're both introduced to you as being different to who they really are, and I don't want to spoil anything.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it? Post-canon fic for Zach/Andrew, one of the possible (and arguably the best) romances in the game. Also pre-canon fic for Andrew & Niesha (with optional Andrew/Niesha), who have a great dynamic and interesting history together that's only hinted at in-game. I'm also always down for canon-divergent AUs and AU settings.
Content warnings: RPG-typical violence, nothing too gory; alcoholism and drug use; unethical experimentation, including on children (mostly discussion, nothing graphic); suicide in a companion's side quest (contains a cutscene with clear visuals of the body)
