this is
the post nuclear
new clear . . . the new clear . . .
role playing game
that lets you be
who you want to be
new . . . clarity . . . The . . .
put points into brains, communications, skill with weapons
New . . . Clarity . . .
you can even dial your capacity to communicate down to zero
most will not do this
the game steers you towards having an intelligence based approach balanced with some weapons skills
The New . . .
but you can be who you want to be
within limits
within the parameters of a violent post-apocalyptic survival game
you won't be taking up cosmetology, semiotics, or site maintenance custodial duties
but think on those Mad Max movies, you'll get the drift
. . . Clarity . . .
your mission is to save your insular community that lives in a subterranean survival complex known as a Vault by finding water purification equipment out in the World, but your adventures shape'n'sharpen you into a stranger by game's end, thus causing you to be cast out from your Vault, accursed to wander the radioactive wasteland
. . . The New . . .
it's a riff on Eden, I suppose
except with a bunch of Adams and Eves choosing to stay in the garden while You get scapegoated for learning of the Good and the Evil out there in the scary huge World
. . . Clear . . . The New . . .
the people of the Vault are grateful
but your ass has to Exit
Status Quo must be preserved
from You
who reeks of the New
. . . Clarity . . .
born of nuclear annihilation
kind of a bummer
but open for sequelization
across the decades
yes
plural of decade
since 1997 A.D. (Anime Domini)
the year of Final Fantasy VII
. . . The New Clarity . . .
that product we already know
must be sold and resold
perma-wander the wasteland
. . . The New . . . Clear . . .
not so new
