The Clerics are a hi-tech religious order who have definitely been playing too much Warhammer 40k. The Outlaws are the most stereotypically post-apocalyptic in the Mad Max-cum-Fallout vein, all scrap armour and conventional weapons. The mix of factions is wonderfully bonkers and makes me think of a bunch of LARPers who all turned up to a game expecting entirely different settings. 160-ish years later, weвЂ™re left with a handful of different groups who have all learned to use elex in different ways.

ItвЂ™s the sort of random that I can respect, and I only wish the game had more. It makes no sense whatsoever and the only explanation I can come up with is that someone involved in the game really likes Billy Idol and just wanted him in their game.

In the 40-ish hours I spent playing the game, I had no reason to return to the amphitheatre. ( Whiskey & Pills from his 2014 album, rather than anything youвЂ™re likely to have heard.) After the cutscene, youвЂ™re left in the empty amphitheatre, alone apart from a couple of guys talking about how great the concert was. I immediately made a beeline for the concert venue and was treated to a rather unflattering rendering of Billy Idol and his guitar-playing chum performing a song. The broadcast was announcing a concert at the nearby amphitheatre. Just a few minutes out of Elex 2вЂ™s, pleasantly brief, tutorial area I came across a radio.
