Watched the intro video. I was kinda chuffed until the dude said you had to fight off natives. This is a world created by someone’s imagination, but despite the ability to have numerous miracles at your disposal, this game did not strive to verbalize, visualize, or in any way conceptualize a solution to the challenge of living with different peoples harmoniously. You’ve landed on a planet and if you’re resourceful and smart enough, you can one day blast off using technology of your own making, but as far as the natives are concerned…. JUST KILL THEM.

It kinda explains why some people are willing to send billions of $$$ to Mars without solving the Earth’s human crises. Some humans have **very deliberately decided that they just don’t give a blip about other humans.** In other words, it’s just not priority #1, and they don’t even solve human problems in their art, *which is the limitless domain.*

I’m just sayin – let’s fantasize about things that matter, and if you say, “People will never get along”, then why do you let yourself overcome every kind of technological challenge in your art, but you can’t overcome the challenge of being respectful and harmonious with beings who are very different?” If we’re going to dream, why the heck not dream BIG and overcome our biggest challenges while we’re at it? **You can’t do a darn thing unless you’ve conceived it first in that imagination of yours.**
