The game seemed like it would offer some decent RPG storytelling and action in a novel setting, but everything is just...bland?

+ Props to the developers for creating a novel setting.
- The storyline is very predictable and boring, even verging on tedious. The three factions are very archetypal and unrealistic. It's basically a somewhat edited three-trope character selection: the Science Faction, the Money Faction, the Combat Faction. It's the scientists vs. businessmen vs. mercenaries storyline.
