Starfield is set 200 years in the future in a world in which we made earth completely uninhabitable and the two big factions always at war with each other are san francisco liberals and cowboy-cosplay libertarians. I don't think anyone at Bethesda even has the capacity to imagine anything other than 20th century american capitalism.

Lmao it cracks my up how ever since Skyrim every Bethesda game has factions that boil down to the most surface level version of the Democrats and Republicans.
