Rejected Ideas :
Contour should look like kerrigan.We do not want any similarities just because someone likes a previous game. Comparions and cheap ripoffs will be voiced by people.Commander of a ship, from a war that just ended.Way too genericdo you go to meet up with the resistance.
do you go to make work with the alliance.
do you work for both sides.
do you try to organize a spy or trade network.Good general ideas for quest linesIntegrate worlds from kismet into possible planet locations to fly through.Put the game in the user perspective.Lots of scope here. Can be done through quest lines.
