Personally I love what I'm hearing about this game. I love the game play, the graphics, and just about everything else about the game.
However I was reading the rockpapershotgun article and as for the political satire I was kinda confused about its inclusion into the game itself. But I'm willing to put real life opinions aside to give the game a fair shot.
However there thing I would like to know about the game and its handling of the satire, does the mood of the game change significantly depending on the faction we choose to help?
Of course the story will change, probably considerably, but are we looking at essentially "bad ends" and darker more serious stories if we choose to back a faction that doesn't agree with the real life affiliations of the creators of the game?
Is the tone of the game stay the same regardless of we decide to join the elven liberal faction or the undead fundamentalist faction? Or can I expect possibly less ending or game tone satisfaction based on what faction I help?
I apologize if my questions didn't came out clear enough, let me know and I'll try to explain further.
