As the developers explain, there is no overarching story in Realtime Worlds, no imminent calamity or major narrative, so the game is more of a sandbox in that sense. That isn't to say the game is devoid of any storylines whatsoever, as there are still NPC factions with their own interconnected stories that players will be able to discover.
On the criminal side are the G-Kings and the Bloodroses. The G-Kings are a gang of oppressed skater punks, while the Bloodroses are a group of wealthy, detached, bored kids who spend their trust-fund dough on funding illegal activities such as smuggling, and have achieved a sizable following as a result.
Video Podcast #14 will cover the Enforcer groups the Prentiss Tigers and the Praetorians.
