Thousand Threads

Thousand Threads (formerly Great Cascade) is an open world game where characters remember and react to the things you do — where your actions matter. Maybe you deliver an item for a guy. He gives you a reward and likes you a little more. Or maybe instead of delivering the item, you sell it to the highest bidder. Now the guy hates you. He tells his friends and they hate you. You're rich, but on the run. It's not a morality system. It's not a scripted story with branching paths. It's a system of cause and effect. Characters have unique personality traits, memories, and goals, so they act and react differently. Your actions build your story. Give, take, save, kill, inform, hide, be loyal, betray. Do what you want, and deal with the consequences.
