Nah, it wasn't just "evil corporations bad". Believe me, I'm sick of sci-fi that's only that surface level. I thought it had a really clever take on taking things comically too far in that government became religion and corporations became governments. The kind of thing where a corporate soldier in his dying breath is reciting his company's motto. Plus I had a really good time with all of the side quests being deeply intertwined in their causality. A was caused by B was caused by C was caused by D was caused by A and C. You could unravel them all and see the effect all of the characters had on each other, where these things are typically very one-to-one in the genre.
