Not really any spoilers, but if you're gonna play it anytime soon maybe skip this and enjoy the opening yourself.
Otherwise, enjoy this album of pretty Soviet retro-future aesthetics because I'm terrible at playing this game but ok-ish at taking screenshots I think.
Edit: The rest of the album is here. I'm bad at posting apparently.
The flags appear to just be the actual flags of the SSRs of the USSR, they're just arranged in 2 identical sets of 16 - interestingly the Karelo-Finnish SSR seems to still exist in this timeline, whereas it was merged into the RSFSR in '56 in reality.
Game’s set in '55 no? if that’s the case it’s some good attention to detail
oh if that's the case then heck yea, good research :soviet-heart:
