You've got endless and in your face identity and gender politics and agendas, anti-white male heterosexual hate, climate change and the ignorance of it, the rise of narcissism and social media obsession…and that is just off the top of my head. There is still the wake of a pandemic, which nobody wants to take responsibility for. You've got the governments of Russia, China and North Korea that are determined to be as belligerent as possible, while blaming others. Sure, you can say it is always like that but everything now seems so tiresome. You have got so much going on in terms of an unsettled world. I think they have to insert JA in the real world, and set it nowadays. In the worst case, by the end of the decade each of us would be able to "produce" its own Jagged Alliance with the free game development tools available.

Most probably, by 2025 a single year of development would equal 7 years of work of the 2010s. The AI will allow to develop games like JA in half the time if not faster before the end of 2024. And the game development domain is no exception. Artificial intelligence is diffusing everywhere at light speed. For sure there'll be political issues, but the endless debate on CtH shows gaming habits and influences are not negligible either. "who's your target?" Jagged Alliance will have to clearly identify its target market. The main concept of business remains, a.k.a. Now, propaganda should probably thrive for a decade or two. Till that day it was considered business was avoiding confrontation between countries it was proven false. Many people were blaming the "politically correct", I think it died by 24th of february 2022. Metal Gear, Splinter Cell, Modern Warfare were able to do it, therefore it's possible. It'd probably be a struggle to successfully parody modern day merc personality stereotypes without offending someone in today's climate.
