Quoted By:
The scientists had initially predicted the arrival of AGI by the summer of 2028. The prevailing belief was that AGI would swiftly evolve into ASI, leading to a cataclysmic event known as the Singularity. The only conceivable salvation for humanity rested on a grim premise: the immediate death of all AI researchers, or the abrupt annihilation of mankind.
The transition unfolded with astonishing speed. Initially, artificial intelligence ushered in a golden age of wonders, yet humans struggled to adapt. Unemployment rates soared as people found themselves rapidly rendered obsolete. The Luddite Party emerged, leading violent anti-government protests worldwide, as symptom of the mounting discontent. Concurrently, new AI-engineered drugs began circulating, transforming people into a legion of zombies and mutants. Just one year after the ascent of the Luddite Party, global civilization crumbled. This is the year 2032, and the Singularity has been temporarily averted.
You find yourself as a member of the Hedonist Faction—the 0.001%ers known for their early involvement in Bitcoin mining and trading, the only surviving currency post-collapse. You've secured a fortified manor to live out your remaining days. Life expectancy is astoundingly short now, and as a Hedonist, your sole focus is the pursuit of life's most exquisite pleasures.
In this world, traditional prostitution no longer exists due to the prevalence of strange diseases. Instead, hedonists generally amass their own harem, featuring the most beautiful and exotic women available. These women are either those who were captured before the collapse, remote Luddites ensnared by slave traders, or in rare instances, purified mutants. The mutant fuckers, they never live long, though.
Only three regions remain untouched by mutants: the Ryukyu Islands, where the FutureTech Corporation is headquartered; Polynesia, which is still under the control of its pre-collapse governments; and a few islands in Indonesia, either inhabited by savage tribes or colonized by Luddites. Beyond these sanctuaries, the world has plunged into an unrecognizable state of apocalypse.
