Liminal Void Phipps23 start
November 28, 2022
(For context, originally this was a reply to this post).
This is a pretty cool idea! I'll give this a shot because I'm starting to sketch out a new thing (Liminal Void) and I'm trying to give it a little more to work with setting-wise than I normally do for a game.
Inspirations
- The Expanse
- Cowboy Bebop
- System Shock
- Alien/s
- FTL
About
If I had to narrow it down to statements would probably come out to something like:
- Space is inherently hazardous and by all rights nobody should be in it. This is more true the less populated the area is.
- The farther out a station or colony is from any of the centers of corporate power, the more exploited and extracted they are.
- Being thrust suddenly onto the fringes of society and having to figure out how to deal with that.
- The wildly disruptive nature of independent ship ownership.
I'll pull this (and some of those Icon ideas) into a dedicated post later.
