With a new DLC and spin-off on the horizon (XD), I was thinking of writing a little fanfiction set in an alternate universe where Ted Faro never deleted APOLLO and the Zero Dawn humans created an advanced society with the help of GAIA and her subordinate functions. What do you think would be the roles of the subfunctions in this new world? This are my initial ideas:
MINERVA - With her Spires, they would establish a global network that allows long ranged communications between the human communities (like a more advanced version of the internet).
HEPHAESTUS - The access to all the Cauldron facilities would give humanity a 100% automated, efficient and with nigh-unlimited possibilities man-power to play with, thus increasing their technological advancement to unknown levels.
AETHER - Humans could use AETHER's machines to control and regulate the weather as they like, such as preventing some climatic catastrophes (storms, flood, wildfires, droughts...).
POSEIDON - The subfunction would probably give all humanity access to free clean water.
DEMETER - With DEMETER's machines, advanced botanic knowledge and control of global flora, humans would grow enormous quantities of food, capable of feeding the entire world.
ARTEMIS - Aside from continuing its task of fauna reintroduction, ARTEMIS would help teach humanity about animals preservation.
ELEUTHIA - Humans could take advantage of the subfunction's knowledge of the human body to improve its medical capabilities, going even further to genetic engineering (much to PBK dismay).
APOLLO - APOLLO's archive and curriculum could be implemented in schools and academies to increase human collective knowledge, where scientists and researchers could contribute with more knowledge to it and the cycle goes on, growing ever stronger.
HADES - In this new world, where advanced humans would take care of the biosphere, I believe that HADES would be permanently deactivated.
So, what do you think? Any more ideas on the subject?
