Designer 1: Well, the engine basically works now. But what about the setting? Those underground bunkers are really a bit boring.
Designer 2: We definitely need to stick with the idea that it's about technology gone bad, you know, like in Terminator 2, but yeah, the setting should be more... wacky.
D1: You know what's wacky? Libertarians!
D2: Ha ha ha! Libertarians sure are crazy!
D1: Ha ha! We could make the game about libertarians, because they're crazy!
D2: A great idea! Hey, wasn't Ayn Rand a libertarian? The one who wrote Atlas Shrugged?
D1: Ha ha ha! Ayn Rand sure was crazy!
D2: Ha ha! She sure was! You know, Atlas always reminds me of Atlantis, and I did some googling, and some libertarians have this crazy thing about living out at sea, so we could set our dystopic game in an underwater city, with libertarians in it!
D1: Ha ha ha! That's really wacky!
D2: Ha ha ha!
