Alright guys. I've been meaning to get a group together IRC for an Eclipse Phase game and was told by some lovely player/collaborators that posting this to the general forums would be a good idea.
So what is this?
Eclipse Phase is a post-apocalyptic game of conspiracy and horror.[11] The setting takes place after a World War III project to create artificial intelligence went rogue under the influence of an extraterrestrial entity known as the "Exsurgent" (best described as an organic computer virus with the capacity to infect both machines and animals with sapient qualities), resulting in the deaths of over 90% of the inhabitants of Earth.
Earth is subsequently abandoned, and existing colonies throughout the Solar System are expanded to accommodate the refugees. The setting explores a spectrum of socioeconomic systems in each of these colonies
The setting explores various scientific advances, extrapolated far into the future. Nanotechnology, terraforming, Zero-G living, upgrading animal sapience, and reputation systems are all used as plot points and background.
With all of this, the game encourages players to confront existential threats like aliens, weapons of mass destruction, Exsurgent Virus outbreaks, and political unrest.
I'm posting this here to see if there is interest and as a place to reference prospective players.
Woo woo
