@Acedynamo - actually the in game story and items do not support your theory at all. You are aboard a ship owned by the Alterra Arms Corporation, which makes weapons. They made the knife you are using in game (take a good look at it when you have it in hand, its stamped with Alterra Arms logo). The PDA entry for the Stasis Rifle literally suggests that you get more lethal weapons, because the Stasis Rifle isn't really adequate for defense or hunting. The only thing in game that remotely approaches what you say is the PDA reminding you that 'eating natural creatures instead of synthetic food may be distasteful, but humans have survived that way for thousands of years'. It appears that synthetic foods are the norm in this society, yes, but all other evidence points to a society that not only understands violence and weapons, but has corporations that produce them.
