The Surge - Erste Einblicke in das dystopische neue Spiel von Deck13

17.12.2015 19:13 - Andy

Das neue Hardcore-Action-Rollenspiel von Focus Home Interactive und dem Frankfurter Entwicklerstudio Deck13, den Entwicklern von Lords of the Fallen, spielt in einer düsteren industriellen Dystopie. Das Spiel zeichnet sich durch ein kompaktes Kampfsystem, einzigartige Ausrüstungsgegenstände sowie ein Upgrade-System aus, das das Aufwerten einzelner Körperteile ermöglicht.

Die Effekte des Klimawandels werden umgekehrt – doch das ist erst der Anfang von etwas viel Größerem; von etwas, das gigantische Auswirkungen auf die ganze Welt haben wird. Das ist zumindest der Inhalt einer Pressemitteilung des fiktionalen Konzerns CREO aus der Zeit vor den Ereignissen in The Surge.

TO HUMANITY,
We have known for many years the world is in crisis. War, famine,
disease and climate change have ravaged our planet. All of these
if not directly caused by mankind have at least been moved to
a fast track. Current projections see a deadly increase in solar
radiation over the next fifty to a hundred years. We can not sit
idly by and let our world burn; it is past time for action.

The leading producer of wetware bio-integrated technologies,
our great company, CREO has led the world into a brighter,
more integrated future. From home and business applications
and neural hi-tech, we have strived to allow you to fulfil your
potential; now CREO is ready to take you on a bold new endeavor.
One that not only determines the fate of the human race, but
our entire planet. For too long we´ve lived in a society built on
what the world can do for me. Now, it´s time to ask what we
can do for the world, and by doing this, we will save ourselves
and future generations to come. There can not be one person
who is not aware of the so called looming environmental disaster,
in fact many esteemed thinkers believe we are way past the
tipping point. As CREO founder and CEO, I, Jonah Guttenberg
(@JonahGuttenberg), have long been active in this area, and our
combined charitable organizations and endeavors are well known
worldwide. As the saying goes: “We do not inherit the earth from
our ancestors; we borrow it from our children”

CREO will be presenting to the world, the result of years of global
co-operation between nations and corporations. We can once
more look ahead with optimism. Please join us; the world will be
watching. Will you?

CREO was built from the ground-up to take mankind into the
future; now it´s going further still, to ensure we have that future.
Jonah Guttenberg
