The
time: November 2019
The place: Los Angeles
The climate in (formerly) sunny California seems to have radically
changed; evidently some ecological disaster has occurred. Is it
because of pollution? Or the aftermath of a nuclear war? Or a combination
of the two, perhaps? Whichever it is, the opening scene suggests
heavy industrial pollution is at least part of the cause.
Note: in BR's source novel, a nuclear war was responsible for
the ecological devastation on earth. The game also assumes a global
war.
Also, whatever the cause, it seems to have made most animal life
all but extinct. (A situation that is only hinted at, at best, in
the movie, but that was much more integral to the story in the book
on which BR was based.)
