The world that Ruin Raiders is set in
is not the near future grungy post apocalypse of walking dead or Mad
Max. It takes place after humanity has reached for the stars and
obtained it's utopia. Inspirations for before the fall would be Star
Trek: Next Generation, Ian Banks' Culture Novels and the pre crash parts
of After Earth.
This was a post scarcity society where
anything you could ever want was available just for the asking. They
had something similar to Star Trek replicators where any item could
be 3D printed on demand if you had enough raw material. Most items
are expected to be used a few times and then broken down into the raw
materials again. Because of this, items are hardly ever made from
natural materials like wood or leather, advanced plastics, vinyl, sythetic cloth and
metals are used instead.
