Honestly, if you’re up for crackhead theories and stuff. I believe they would be much more appreciated in the discord server.

Arc is the only one that can answer in depth (but problem is… will he answer?).

I can tackle some of it to start.

The location of the game is deliberately vague. Partially because Arc is trying to make elements easier for people to self insert.

But also Arc’s the type of guy that travels a lot. Due to that, he tends to incorporate elements from various cultures into an odd mismatch.

There’s also plenty of japanese influence in buildings and props due to the fact that the engine used for the visuals was made by japanese developers.

MC’s age, also left somewhat vague for self-insert purposes. But that’s kinda bullshit, you can’t tell me he’s older than 30.

But he went to college, and is old enough to consider Veronica just a kid. So my bet is around 25.

Arc has a lot of things to juggle, some take more priority than others.

Tho, I do wonder if Lomeg was an act 2 thing or if he’ll come back in act 3.

Chris kinda covered it all, but just so there's an "official" response... :)

Location is left deliberately vague:

1. Uniform is for college, not school, which is privately run and therefore up to the owner of the college, so could be anywhere.

2. Language is English because that's the most widely-spoken language and thus the best for an initial game release, but other languages will be included once the game enters beta. So still not a "tell".

3. Who says this is even the Earth we know? The Nexus is a thing, after all, and at no point have I said "Hey, player! This is the Earth you're living on, too!"

In summary:  DUN DUN DUUUUUUUN!

Age of MC is left up to the player. For legal reasons he's 18 or over, but if you want to imagine him in your head as a different age, I can't stop you.

Lomeg will make a return in Act Three, but you need access to Lyx plus a powerful battery first. MC wasn't really bothered about it in Act Two (frankly, it would have been a problem then if he'd had a large cardboard-covered robot following him around) but now? He's definitely into the idea of a WarBot, yes. As is Lyx, worryingly...
