Elex

Elex is an open world post-apocalyptic sci-fi fantasy RPG by Piranha Bytes that was released in October, 2017, for PC, Xbox One and PS4. The game is a carbon-copy of Piranha Bytes' prior RPGs such as Gothic and Risen but is significantly better because it gives you a fucking jetpack.

A sequel creatively titled Elex II was announced at E3 2021 and is scheduled to be released "soon".

Factions

FUS RO DAH!

The Albs

The Albs are the true master race of Magalan.

The Albs are emotionless, pale-skinned warriors who are controlled by a hivemind and are addicted to a potent form of space crack known as Elex. All albs have names that contain the letter X and they live at the north pole.

Berserkers

The Berserkers are a group of tree-hugging D&D LARPers who live in the forest and believe that technology is a sin, much like the Amish. Berserkers have the ability to cast "magic" by converting Elex into mana.

Outlaws

The Outlaws are a bunch of assholes who live in the desert and spend all of their time being assholes. Outlaws have the ability to create drugs from Elex.

Clerics

The Clerics are a bunch of sci-fi nerds who wear fancy armor and like to collect old world technology while worshiping their so-called "God" Calaan out of their base inside an active volcano, they are essentially a ripoff of both the Brotherhood of Steel and Scientology. Clerics have the ability to utilize psychic powers through the use of Elex.

Mutants

Mutants are ugly motherfuckers who used to be human but were transformed after being exposed to elex. Most mutants have cybernetic augmentations for seemingly no apparent reason other than the fact that the devs thought that it made them look cool.
