The Setting is in a Neo-noir world, unlike anything you have seen before. (Think Dark City, Sin City, or Blade Runner) Even though the game is set ruffly around the aesthetics of the 1950s. It is set in a parallel multiverse all to its own. The first man to walk on the moon has already come to pass. As the technology of the day far surpasses what we have today.
Technology is at its all-time peak. Where we once thought it was a great achievement to land a man on the moon. Yet in what may seem like a blink of an eye the first colonists arrived on the moon. Yet it was nothing like the moon that Robert Stoneman and Arthur Reese landed on. For in the past two decades the moon had been completely terraformed a now had an atmosphere similar to earth. So no longer is space the final frontier it had become a new home to some.
Mankind has finally cracked the code and created artificial intelligence. By taking into account the fact that the personality matrix ever-evolving. Starting from I.A.'s childhood all the way up into adulthood. This let the A.I. evolve into its own set personality. This new matrix, allowed the A.I. program, to grow and learn as it evolved. Giving it the capability of growing and learning new ways of thinking. And like humans the capability to not handle the same problem the same way twice.
Advances in medicine never once stopped changing. They had somehow surpassed even what some people only thought where a pipe dream. With the advance in cybernetic and nanobot technology. Even something as deadly as cancer could be cured with a simple injection. The loss of a limb was no longer was a crippling event in someone's life. For no one would ever know that your false hand was not your real one for it looked and felt as real as the other. Some say the mind is a horrible thing to lose, but what if you could store your memories in a pill and share it with the world?
Advances in what once was a dream to most the realm of virtual reality. Now even surpass even what naysayers of the past have become reality. For no longer did someone need a computer to enter this altered state. For they themselves had become the computer. Through the advances in nanobot technology. A viscous solution is injected into the skin of the host subject that connects with the nervous system. For total immersion into the virtual world.
This sets them up to play the number 1# game in the world The Quest. The Quest is a total emersion VR game that feels as real as if it was happening to you in real life. With more challenging storylines as you advance through the game. The game also seems to adapt to the player as they progress through the game. Learning as they advance through the challenges of the game. The game itself blurs the line between reality and the game world.
