    Disintegration

     

     

    In Earth’s near future, climate extremes, overpopulation, food shortages, and a global pandemic led to

    nations collapsing and humankind on the brink of extinction.

     

    Scientists adopted a means in which the human brain was removed and surgically encased into a robotic

    armature; a process known as Integration.

     

    It was meant to be a temporary solution to an unavoidable crisis.

     

    It was a good thing for decades, allowing humans to survive. But some of the Integrated saw this new

    form as the future of humanity.

     

    With no desire to reverse the process, the post-humanist Integrated stratified, calling themselves the Rayonne.

     

    Global war soon erupted, and Rayonne forces now seek to hunt down any remaining humans, forcing

    their integration, and destroying those who don’t share their views.

     

    In Disintegration, you play an Integrated character named Romer. He’s one of many who rebelled and are

    now outlawed by the Rayonne.

     

    It’s up to you to lead a small group of these Outlaws, people who have chosen to fight back and survive,

    into a brighter future where we protect those they care about and hope to one day become human again.

    Pilot a heavily weaponized Gravcycle while commanding your troops on the ground as you battle through

    a thrilling single-player campaign and in frenetic PvP multiplayer.

     

    In Earth’s near future, climate extremes, overpopulation, food shortages, and a global pandemic led to nations collapsing and humankind on the brink of extinction.

    Sea of Thieves Interest post!

    Sea of Thieves has sailed to Steam

     

     

    The Steam version will include all of the content previously released on the other platforms. This includes the Ships of Fortune update released last April that introduced a new emissary system, allowing players to become an emissary in the game.

     

     

     

     

    Sea of Thieves was a slow burn that has greatly improved over the last two years.


     

    Sea of Thieves is an always online, shared-world adventure game . While your character and levels, such as they are in the game are persistent, the world is not. Every time you load in, you’re given a fresh ship to quickly customise as you’d wish. You can choose between 3 types of ship, the small but nimble Sloop with a choice of either solo or a 2 player crew; The fast but single decked Brigantine (or Briggy as it’s affectionately known) for 3 players, and last but not least, the impressive and formidable Galleon. Maximum firepower and the fastest ship with the wind, but slow to manoeuvre. Anything you’ve found, like storage crates or resources in your last session don’t come with you.

     


     


     

     

    Be The Pirate You Want To Be - With musket loaded and grog in hand, the freedom of the pirate life awaits. What will your legend be? An epic multiplayer adventure. Crew up and set sail on memorable voyages. Make and break your pirates' code on the Sea of Thieves. A treacherous shared world. Plot your course and set sail for hidden riches. Navigate the perils of a fantastical world and the danger of rival crews. Collapse

     

     

     

     

    Check this game out, and if it is something you would like to see in TAW fill out the INTEREST FORM.
