We chat about videogames and videogame accessories.

Alternatively, "There is a race of beings, known as the Shapers, that live on another plane of existence. They've been influencing our society in subtle ways for longer than we know, and now they're trying to make more direct contact. A group calling themselves 'Enlightened' want to just turn over the keys to the planet, no questions asked. The Resistance, on the other hand, are inclined towards taking some reasonable precautions, given that we know practically nothing about these 'Shapers', including potential goals and ideals, so just surrendering the human race to them would be a naive and foolish thing to do."

(Just to even out the propaganda levels. :P)

I can't honestly claim to have played in a while, as I found the game getting rather same-y fairly quick, but I haven't exactly been anywhere near at hotbed of coordinated planning. If there's a group around that's playing, I bet it could be pretty fun.
