The year is 2030, and competitive gaming reigns supreme.
Your name is Wolfgang O'Neal, a former star player in a VRFPS titled Warscape. After you cheated on the biggest stage imaginable, your life was in tatters – your parents disowned you, you left your team, and the whole world reviled you as you disappeared from the public eye.
Five years later, you now own an arcade, and all is well and good – until your past comes knocking on your door.
Being faced with an ultimatum, can you bring...

For a thousand years, humanity has fought in the Infinite War - a three way factional struggle between the United Earth Federation, the Aeon Illuminate and the Cybran Nation. Though freed from resource limitations, each faction has an irreconcilable ideological difference with the other. They will only stop with total and complete victory.
General Samantha Clarke has been fighting the Infinite War her whole life. She has fought it from the cockpit of an Armored Command Unit - the...
An altered receptacle hounded by a cacophony of voices. A cosmic coincidence puts a crack into the Script before it can even truly start. Yet still, there is the same trail to blaze, as changing destiny is not so simple a task. Good luck, Stelle, and I'd suggest seeing a therapist at some point.
(Honkai: Star Rail quest with Disco Elysium mechanics)
An attempt at grounded sci-fi that still is cool and rollicking. Influences include The Expanse, Cowboy Bebop, a more calmed-down version of Philip K. Dick, the capitalist mania of EVE Online, the work of climate scientists everywhere and, you guessed it, Sid Meier's Pirates.
EARTH IS DEAD. HUMANITY IS DYING. MAKE SOME MONEY.
A significantly older Shirou Emiya from 'From Fake Dreams' by Third Fang got reincarnated in the Warhammer universe as the Eleventh Primarch. How will the Tenth Dead Apostle Ancestor change the faith of the galaxy?
Shout out to Third Fang for From Fake Dreams and Daemon Hunter for The Eleventh Primarch.
This quest follows the exploits of Easy Squad, a part of the Exofleet, as it deploys to track down the pirate scourge of the outer planets of the solar system, and then <spoilers> and <spoilers> but <spoilers> <spoilers>, <spoilers>. Long story short, a squadron of fighter jocks flying mobile armored exoskeletons called E-Frames, lots of shooting, lasers, and explosions.
The Nazi wonder weapons went beyond a few blueprints and moneysinks, and the proxy wars of the Cold War were backed by secret projects that went beyond stealth aircraft and spycraft. You would know, you are one of them; a conditioned, trained soldier for the war after nukes fell, kept in stasis.
And then you woke up to a whole new world, and found that the Cold War isn't done after all.
War, war never changes. But the fallout world does! While the broad strokes are the same (the brotherhood of steel is still an organisation dedicated to gathering and protecting technology for example) many of the details have been changed. Some subtly, some not so subtly.
What does this mean for you the players?! Well for a start, the quest begins before the lone wanderer ever leaves vault 101 and depending on choices they may not ever even exist! Beyond that another major change to the...
The arid, resource-rich planet Kidar has fallen to invasion by the Solarian polities of the Tharsian Alliance Treaty Organization. A treaty prevents the Sirius United Socialist Republics from intervening in the conflict but the player, an intelligence handler from the Comittee for State Security, has been tasked with contesting the occupation until the home front is secured.
Using local mercenaries, their task is to destroy the occupation forces' command structure- one shot at a time.
Simin Pham is a young woman in a dark future, a refugee, mercenary and veteran. With a life of violence behind her, she leaves the Earth to begin university at the Lyceum Orbital, the massive artificial satellite that houses the successors of Earth's most prestigious academic institutions- and a playground of the scions of the oligarchic elite who now rule the world.
Her academic career begins with a chance encounter...
This is apparently a requirement for threads now, and I have no idea how to use it. Cool.
