There will be various factions in the game world. Each of these will have their own unique customs and characteristics. Included with the factions will be a reputation and influence system. As your reputation goes up in a Faction, so does your influence. You will have access to gear specific to the Faction, special tasks, companions, and even special skills.
That being said, no Faction will be forced on the players. This means the player will decide who to assist and who not to assist. There will be neutral factions that will always be friendly and there will be certain factions that will always be hostile.
