  • Wake me up when a game about exploration actually has exploration in it. Loading screens, fast travel, shallow space content, minimally consequential space ship building…

    Sure, in this game you “go places”, but you go places to be there, ignoring all the excitement of what has to happen to get there and what happens along the way. That’s not really exploration. That’s just a level select screen.


  • Asking your employer for more compensation because you are exerting more effort due to inexperience isn’t so different than a AAA studio charging high fees for a crappy product because of corporate bullshit and inefficiency.

    In fact, these two things tend to be two sides of the same coin.

    Realistically, probably the same thing as what happens at self-checkout lines with idiotic anti-theft checks:

    A beacon above the kiosk turns on, an attendant walks over and, without a word, flashes a badge at the machine to override the system lockout as they roll their eyes: this is only the hundredth time today someone accidentally pressed the wrong button, because what kind of terrorist would voluntarily press “yes”.
