| sales2099 said: I dont like this premise. Humanity degraded from a space faring race to one city on Earth? Sounds like a mix from the story behind the Brutes in Halo before they joined the Covenant and Gears of War (bombing themselves back to the stone age). Halo is about Humanity persevering and ascending to their rightful place as protectors of the galaxy. This........just seems depressing. That hovering alien ship only strengthens that humanity is the pet of another alien race. A story means everything to a sci-fi game. Humans don't like playing games where Humans loose/or are the "bitch", pardon my potty mouth :P |
I disagree. Post-apocalyptic media where humanity is the underdog is huge in all forms, including games, films, and novels. Lots of people prefer that setting over the 'Starship Troopers' form; I know I do, and I used to read tons of sci-fi novels. Ultimately, though, people aren't going to worry about that if the story and setting are quality.
