I’m calling it, the MC’s parents are both mods and the MC was born with telepathy.

Parents? We’re a Regene we don’t have parents

I was under the impression that the MC was turned into a Regene after the heartbreak incident.

Spoiler tag and also. Regenes are like clones, like robots, etc. They aren’t like Android 17 and 18 a couple of teenagers abducted and turned into cyborgs. They’re like Android 16 created from scratch.

The first game heavily implies the MC was a Re-Gene from birth. In the first game, the MC will be jealous of the fact Argent had parents if they look through her mind (and they mention something about never having any). It’s implied the reason MC would refuse to tell Ortega about their past back when they were Sidestep because of the government’s involvement (they say something along the lines of Ortega getting themselves killed if they knew the truth because they’d be so outraged and angry?), and also Sidestep was desperate to avoid government attention. When you run into the Re-Genes while trying to get the telepathic gun, the MC seems to have quite a lot of knowledge about how they operate (including that there would be a scout acting as crowd control, which would be… a very good job for a telepathic Re-Gene). There’s also the mention of the museum gate-crashing being their “first real birthday” or something along those lines. Plus the optional epilogue (if you weren’t secretive enough or something) where you, the reader, discover the Farm has realised the MC is alive and is keeping an eye on them.

I’m pretty sure there’s some more stuff in the demo which would support the “MC was abused by the government from birth” thing (since that’s less and less a theory tbh), but I can’t remember it right now. But Re-Genes don’t seem to be volunteers, since I’m pretty sure the first game’s flashbacks all but admitted there’s experiments repeatedly killing and reviving people until their skin turns blue and they achieve some weird state, so the general consensus is (I think?) it makes more sense for the US government to be cloning babies as opposed to kidnapping them on a massive scale.

Malin just posted on tumblr that Sidestep is like Black Magic for Herald.

Though it’s a bit cute that we’re the object of his obsession. All the better to kill him with later.

Fanfiction inspiration.

Herald lay in the pool of blood holding his hand to his throat to staunch the flow from the slash in his neck. His eyes were filled with shock. "Never met your Heroes kid. They’ll only Disappoint you. But if it makes you feel any better. This wasn’t personal. I don’t hate you. Hehe I don’t hate anyone except myself. Not even the Monsters on The Farm that tortured me my entire Life… But I have to destroy. There’s an old story. Once upon a time, a woman was picking up firewood. She came upon a poisonous snake frozen in the snow. She took the snake home and nursed it back to health. One day the snake bit her on the cheek. As she lay dying, she asked the snake, “Why have you done this to me?” And the snake answered, “Look, bitch, you knew I was a snake.” " Evelyn… No Sidestep knelt down to him. “You want to die happy? I don’t like men but since you’re dying I’ll let you have a peek.” She took off her top revealing the Regene tattoos and old scars that still marred her body. “I still your dream girl Herald?” She asked coldly but his glazed expression was the only answer she received. Sliding her shirt back on she delivered a kick to his body and walked away.
