“It is 2020. 250k are dead from a raging pandemic; a private space company is launching crewed missions NASA can’t. A mad president is live-tweeting a painfully slow psychotic break, refusing to leave office. The planet boils.” —Blurb from “2020” obscure sci-fi book from 2007.

The state of play is too big and messy for my little head. I liked the pre-2015 easy mode release of this game. The reboot is poorly designed and unplayable.

The difference from all the sci-fi I read that was vaguely like this is that there was a plot to those stories, and a cool anti-hero or anti-heroine going around kicking ass and taking names while artistically navigating a spiral of self-destruction.

Political/nation-state decay. The rise of tech megacorps. Successive global shocks. Networked tribes. Seems to be on track.
