Some mutants allowed

[Briosafreak]

GameGuru made an interview with Carsten Strehse to learn more about Silver Style's project The Fall - Last Days of Gaia, here`s a zip:
<blockquote>GGMania: What can you tell us about the enemies in The Fall? Can we expect some mutants?
Carsten Strehse: Yes, but special ones. We don't have those classical “The bell-ringer of Notre Dame"-mutants. Our mutants have it's own special look, behaviour and also a history. But I won't break the whole secret of them yet.  Besides mutants the player will meet different gangs, end-time Indians, task forces of reavers (called Seekers) and a lot of other interesting groups. If he wants to fight against them is up to the player.</blockquote>

end-time Indians

Does he mean politically correct indians or the incorrect "injuns"? I'm guess he's reffering to tribals or a new class of hunters and gatherers or even possibly scavengers in this case. I just wanted to clarify...

 

[Briosafreak]

I think he just means "End of times indians", but i`m really speculating.

i thought 'injun' was just a slang term for indian

 

[Ozrat]

It is. I was using it as slang for indian because indian is a slang word for Native American, or Aboriginals as the Canadians call them.

The point is that Indian refers to people from India. That's what I mean when I say politically correct Indians.

And the real point is, what kind of people are we talking about in the game. These "end of time indians", are they from Asia or North America? Or are they something else? Are they genetically the same as they are now, or are they people who've reverted back to a more natural lifestyle aka reborn hunters and gatherers or scavengers? You know, like those Fallout tribals.

If they're just a bunch of people living off the land, then that should come as no suprise, because what the hell would you do when you're living in a post-apoc world?

Bake brownies?

 

[Ozrat]

Well, damn man! If you're going to put up all that trouble to survive in a post-apoc world just to back some friggin' brownies, then they better be the good psychedelic kind! Yeah, that's right, I'm talking about some canabis recipes here! And it better go great with some Nuka-Cola! I wanna go down giggling like a sissy girl when I get attacked by those radscorpions.
