For a game that took place in the early 2000s, there seems to be a lack of mention of the September 11 terrorist attacks. I bring this up because it radically altered the culture of the time in ways that make this game feel exceptionally ignorant of the time. Even though literally the only reason I can comprehend this game is set explicitly in the 2000s is because Qwel grew up in that exact year span. All over the Western World: Canada, America, the UK, much of Europe, people were paranoid because 9/11 wasn't the only terror attack that had happened. It was the MAJOR THEME of the decade! I mean I can understand not wanting everyone to be so fearful as that goes against the tone the game is trying to establish. But then you have very awkward moments if you actually were there and if you do actually remember the time period.
