My question is only a yes-or-no question, but I have to know: when Darrow says he intends to tell the world the "unadulterated" truth, does that include the fact that it was he who was driving the mechanically augmented into a murderous rampage? I can't help but feel he'd conveniently leave that out. If I heard his message and it confessed even that, I'd get really, REALLY mad at Darrow for betraying humanity. It would not have set me against mechanical augmentations.
Lead narrative designer Mary DeMarle says:
“Yes, Darrow’s “unadulterated truth” does include the fact that he was the one who had “pressed the red button,” so to speak, and by doing so, had sent mechanically augmented people into a murderous rampage. I am sure, though, that he would have worded this confession in such a way as to make it clear that the technology itself made it possible. Darrow was merely exposing the weakness to show people how vulnerable they had become. If not him, it would have been someone else. And that someone else might have chosen to exploit this weakness in far more devastating and dangerous ways.”
