#LACUNAAPOSTASII #worldbuilding thread!

Before I start, feel free to interject at any moment with questions or even your thoughts!

Okay so, yesterday I was thinking about how well the OPTO weapons perform and just how useful they are with the H-Y plugs and H2-Y plugs.

Then again, compared to CASE weapons they don't exactly have variety, nor do they have ammunition options. Besides calibrations but those take time to do and can't be done on the field.

Now, why would a horror game have so much about weapons tho?

Well the thing is, even with weapons, horror is ever-present. Weapons and violence just are an overlay on the whole thing. When weapons become common, then the problems and horrors become immune to them.

The oppressive everyday violence and issues that transcend it are ideal thing to showcase when guns are ever-present. Specially when you get to ridicolous BALO, MALO, and ÆÞER weapons which are carried around by the higher ranking extras in stories.

Lacunae [REACTED] become more interesting, as weapons aren't a thing you can use to stop them. And the weapons that they use themselves are even more questionable to our reality.

So when you find yourself on a world with less weapon distribution than the rest of the Empire... You'll have to ask yourself: What's happening here that the guns aren't even being brought to this place.
