This map is a world map of a planet called Pragia, which is the main setting for my story. Basically, the world is filled with nations and organizations, who are all struggling and vying for power.
Basically, Ancient Space (project's name) is a total conversion of The Witcher 2. It will be an unforgettable adventure, setting the player in an unfamiliar, fresh and modern (Sci-Fi) world. You will control multiple characters that have different personalities, which you can alter in many ways. The story is non-linear, meaning that there will be multiple endings that are affected by your actions. I am aiming for a rich and deep story-line filled with interesting and believable characters. The story will also be full of twists and turns. The project will depict numerous factions vying for control of the planet. Major powers control Great Houses which supply those powers with resources and manpower.
There are multiple themes the story will revolve around, such as Augmentations, which improve the body, but make you less human, and if you don't have the money to maintain them, you will experience heavy pain and eventually die; Corporations, which have more power than the government; and conspiracies forged by the corporations. And, one, if not the most important theme the story will revolve around, is dark thematic. This is not a happy story where a young blonde prince saves the day. This is deep stuff, and sometimes you will wonder who is on whose side. Back-stabbing and treachery are common elements in the story, and don't expect your favorite character to survive. There will be multiple main characters, all with different personalities that you will be able to alter in many ways, while also preserving their core personalities.
One of the things I won't do is the classic "Good vs. Evil". In this world, there is no good and evil, only methods and actions that define a person. A man can save the world by killing millions, is he necessarily evil? Also, this is not one of those typical "save the world" stories. You fight to save your family (as one of the characters), other characters want very different things, but none of them are heroes. In this world, there are no heroes.
A little bit about the factions in Pragia (the game's planet). There is the UCS (United Colonial States), who worship democracy. Then there is The Union, which is controlled by a bunch of corporations all vying for the control of the planet. Corporations control the war. They hire Private Military Companies to fight for them.
It's not about politics, religion or hatred, it is about money and power. War has become a business. The best business so far. All corporations get their share, and it is impossible to trace them down should they lose the war.
The Union is not a union of people, but of corporations. There are other factions, as well.
