First Contact
So, assuming in an infinite universe, there are races other than humans, all with their own fully developed technologies and protocols etc.; wouldn't there be some sort of incompatibility between your technologies and theirs? On first contact with an alien faction, whether by the player or an AI entity, it only make sense that the faction is unable to communicate (without difficultly at least), interact with our market and visa versa, and be identified. This would gradually ease over time, as the two factions integrate, or spark a war with the other faction. In my mind, this would make gameplay a little more interesting, especially when personally making first contract, and add some realism to the game (why would a totally new culture share my language/technology?)
That which is not dead may eternal lie, and with strange eons even death may die.
