What's a Canadian based RPG developer got to do with it? Wink
[Can I groan here? Cause this is a groanworthy pun. Peeeeyeeeeewwww]
Quite frankly, this whole boomer sentience bit seems more like what they did in BGC: Tokyo 2040. But...eh. Never saw much in the original series that said "boomers are oppressed sentient beings", but that doesn't necessarily mean that Bob-o here can't construct a piece of fiction in that mindset.
[except for the sexaroids. gotta love them oppressed sexaroids. they're so tragic. sniff.]
I don't see why everyones' tossing around cannon this and cannon that...isn't that the point of a piece of fan fiction? To get away from that, a little? So long as you got the basics right, that is...
[it's cause the author's been very particular about being true to canon. You can see how in the concordance he mentions bits of continuity and related information from canon sources.]
Edit: Oh, I have to agree with Murmer here just a little. Doug comes off as a bit haughty and zealous, but I was happier with the nonstandard outcome, with him not teaming up with the Sabres at the first reasonably decent juncture.
[yes, that WAS cool. And not just the whole agreeing with me part. Though that was also cool. No, Doug not teaming up with the Sabres, having a relationship with Nene and or Priss was very surprising.]
