To be honest, it's not dystopian at all. This is EXACTLY how crossing the boarder to Czechoslovakia, Belarus, Ukraine or Russia looked like just 20 years ago, and probably still looks similar today. The only thing missing from the game is people trying to bribe the guards, as that was a bread and butter of their existence. Having crossed these borders hundreds of times I know that border guards would hold you off for days even, if you didn't bring a "gift". Russian guards told me to fuck off and wait in the car since they were playing football and were busy. When I complained the guy took out his pistol and threatened to shoot me if I don't get back to the car. I watched the entire playthrough of this game on Giant Bomb and it did strike some familiar vibes.
