After a recent rewatch of the TV series I figured I’d give the game a try, after all, it’s set after the tv series, right?
well no. Defiance 2050 is just a barely updated version of the original Defiance game that was running concurrently to the TV show. The story is not advanced, though there’s more to the world than what was shown in the TV series. Unfortunately it can’t get past it’s own MMO senses, so I gave up after several weeks of playing due to the repetitive fetch and guard quests.
