Curious premise for a game, wishlisted for now

1) Definitely Deutschrock and not Schlager ;)
2) Does not make much sense to those not knowing German unless you explain that "Tausendmal" means "a 1000 times" :)

mechmouse: Curious premise for a game
Definitely one that makes no sense:

- a mysterious alien race (called: the Occupants) arrives

- they are not hostile

- clones of the MC live in an underground bunker - in constant fear of an Occupant attack

- the immune MC lives on the front line of the war with the Occupants

- all her clones dream of joining the MC in her fight against the aliens

If the aliens are not hostile...then why live the clones in fear of an alien attack?

And who started this war, that's going on? And why exactly? Most probably not the non-hostile aliens.

A mysterious alien race of giant entities arrives. We call them the Occupants.

They are not hostile,

They must wear masks 24/7 to avoid breathing the diseased air even in the Orchard - an underground bunker where they live in constant fear of an Occupant attack.

The ALLMOTHER lives in her own compound on the front line of the war with the Occupants.
Well, alrighty then.

Not sure what you two are quoting, but the game description says:

They are not hostile, but it doesn’t matter. Their arrival is a death sentence. Humanity is wiped out in a matter of months, succumbing to a disease the Occupants have brought to our planet.

We're quoting the same thing you're quoting, just a bit further down.

5/5 for title originality. (your effort is noted)
This got 1 star so fast I thought it was an NSFW game.
Seems awfully Japanese, with all those kanjis and ninjas and whatnot.

Bought.
Wishlisted for now, will buy it a bit later.

The "kanjis" seem to be traditional Chinese and the founder of the developer has another company called Hong Kong Exile. Although the art director is from Osaka and three of the four inspirations quoted on the game page are Japanese...

[The aliens] are not hostile.

- So: why "live in constant fear of an alien attack"?

Makes no sense.

- Leading a war, however, is an act of hostility.
- Dreaming about joining a fight against someone (who is apparently NOT hostile), is also a sign of hostility.


But to unwittingly (?) introduce a disease/virus, of which possibly nobody knew that it existed, resp. of which nobody knew, that it poses a threat to the natives' lives, is not an act of hostility - that's just a massive "oopsie".

That's of course, IF the disease is not deliberately used as a weapon, after its life-threatening attribute is discovered.

But the game's blurb doesn't mention anything to that regard, only that the aliens aren't hostile.

Which really doesn't support the "the aliens deliberately killed the natives by disease" - theory, that you seem to follow.
