Okay, so, after the success of my first game; The Lucid Prophecy, which was rewarded with a 2 grand check (SCORE!)
I immediatly dove into two new projects, the eldest one, which I am very fluent in it's creation, is 7-Force, but this new game that I started out of impulse; is my own Shadowrun quest turned into a game--
Now for my request---
Anyone who has fair knowledge, or has played the Shadowrun games (Pen and Paper I mean) would be able to help;
The main story, is that the two leading companies Aries, and Horizon, are now warring more than ever, and Seattle is thrust into an age of cutthroat
commerce trade. Shadowrunners are finding it hard to do business now that a new gang, called 'Stalkers' have been employed as an invisible muscile to carry out their bosses oreders have been mass-employed.
The Humanis Cult (A cult comprised of very racist groups against Meta-Types) has developed an "Energy Drink", that is said to be created specially for Orks, and Trolls, and mass produced through a small branch of the Mitsuhama's smaller organizations.
Aries wants this new technology, but then again, so does Horizon, and they began to launch attacks on one another's credability, going even as far as killing, using these new Stalker's...
The main charecter is a struggling Shadowrunner who lost his apartment because he couldent make rent, business is slow because of these Stalker bnastards, untill an opportunity approaches, through various courses of events, you will have the opportunity to work for either Aeries, or Horizon, and eventually, face off against a few Stalker's (Who rival the skill of a Shadowrunner)
The twist will be, that the drink is actually a powerfull poison designed to cause mass genocide of every meta-type in existance. Of course, the main charecter will remain ignorant of this untill much later on.
Now that you know the story, you can help... I still feel my game lacks PIZZAZ, and i'd like some suggestions and advice for story development, crazy ideas that alter the main story will be considered, but try not to go overboard guys.
Also, please only offer advice if you are knowledgable of the history, and gameplay of the Shadowrun pen and paper series

Do people know that the humanis group invented the drink?
And do people know that they hate non-humans?
If both those statements are correct. I don't see why any ork or troll would drink it. I mean, you can be ignorant, but not that ignorant.
And perhaps have some plot twist that both Aries and Horizon is actually financed by the same group of people. And they somehow make money because of their battles. Like MGS4's war economy.
They have a third company(perhaps even those Stalkers) that makes money by selling weapons and services to the two companies. So they get a lot of money.

Nobody knows the humanis Cult created the drink, obviously, but everybody knows their an anti-meta-type organization.
Their trying to advertise the drink to Mitsuhama Inc. (Secretly, most likely in disguise or somthing, maybe even an insider job?) in an attempt to mass produce the item (I'm not entirely sure how yet)
Stalkers are also employed by megacorporations only, and also operate as whispers or hermits in the Matrix, making tracking them down extremely difficult, unless of course, your a technomancer.
Those are also pretty good ideas, and i've run through some of my files and programs, to see how to fit it in, unfortunately, even if I did fit it in, it would not be easy to come by;
I want the main charecter to ALWAYS have a four-way option of choices on what to say, which means, that there will be only a 25% chance that they would even discover this fact!
IN such an event, I need 3 other major plot twists, the poisonous drink is gonna' be more world known, somthing they eventually HAVE to find out, and leads them to a showdown with some ultra powerfull dude (A last boss), and BOOM they'll win after an intense firefight, that's also semi-interactive (My fight scenes take forever -Sigh-)
What i'm looking for is more of a side-story type deal,
Somthing that may even alter th current story!
C'mon your all game makers, your good at this stuff! (Chuckles)
