‘Binary Domain’ Aims to Teach You That Your Actions Have Consequences

If you aren’t aware of Sega’s upcoming third-person shooter Binary Domain, perhaps you had better start preparing. The game, which is scheduled to be released on February 14, 2012, is an action game set in a futuristic Tokyo that takes the concept of moral decisions in games to the next level. While most games that have used morality have based it on a few key or apparent decisions during the game, Binary Domain aims to prove that there is a consequence for literally every action that you take.

Check out the trailer above; every interaction that you have with your AI partners decides how they view and act towards you. It isn’t just about how you speak to them during dialog moments, but also whether or not you carry your weight during battle or assist them in their time of need. The one thing that you need to remember is that if you don’t have their back(s), how can you expect them to have yours?
