      I mean I agree with you in principle. The world is massive; how does Africa deal with a cyberpunk future? How does South America survive a nuclear apocalypse? An alien invasion in India?

      It would be fascinating to see different cultures and these issues.

      Where else can you set a game where capitalism has gone wrong and excessive amounts of guns are available?

                Is it confirmed??

                Nah. Arasaka owns Japan, for fuck’s sake.

                It’s safe to assume that the rest of the world is equally fucked, just probably with less guns, and with electric cars instead of those CHOOH2 guzzlers.

                No, the rest of the world has its problems too. The Soviet Union still exists, but it’s slowly turning into modern Russia and is basically ruled by oligarchs.

                And that’s one of the better places to live. There’s a lot of places that no longer exist because they were wiped off the map or are unsafe for humans to even venture close to.
