TALOS VICE

An 80s instrumental blares as the camera pans over scenes of Talos Island: windsurfers on the water, the Talos statue, shoppers in Wentworth's, bikini babes, sports cars racing down the Argo Highway, a speedboat bouncing on the waves. A title card appears over the waters racing below: TALOS VICE.

FADE IN: INT. OFFICE – Morning

Somewhere in a private, well-funded lab in Cap au Diable, Dr. Aeon (the PROTAGONIST) is sitting at his computer, deciding just what new Developer Choice to award for this month. His fingers rattle on his desk, Dr. Aeon’s mind filled with wonder about what exactly to do. He snaps his fingers in a moment of clarity.

DR. AEON:
That’s it! I know exactly which arc to choose. Even if it is about do-gooders, we all need that every once in a while. Talos Vice!

EXT. SKYSKRAPER ROOF – Afternoon

Dr. Aeon speaks with his fellow scientists on the roof of a skyscraper. He seems excited in explaining why he feels TALOS VICE deserves this developer choice.

Dr. AEON:

It’s an arc that reminds you about the 80’s, don’t you see? And it’s uniquely written too, I haven’t seen anything like this! It really makes you feel like you’re in an 80’s cop drama working together with this Detective Croquette. Really, if you all haven’t played it yet, you should!
And that’s why I’m happy to reward PW with this month’s dev choice award. Send out the proper messages and let everyone know!

Is it my imagination or did Dr. Aeon's introduction to this (well-deserving) story arc sound like it was written by... TELEVISION?!?

You know, Television is everyone's friend. Everyone including Dr. Aeon. You should be watching Television right now.

Is it by chance that an arc based on a TV series got chosen for the new DEV choice? By no one less then Doctor Aeon, well known for having written the paper to promote more television on trhe Rogue islands?

I think not.

They want to take your Freedom! They want you to stop listen to RADIO.


Grats, well deserved.
