Also: Survival and Crafting's a dime a dozen and usually lazily interpreted.
Pacific Drive is different enough that it thoroughly escapes my ire because it isn't. it's different.
I want that to be an option in such games, to have a vehicle to call your own. sure you have to keep it going, however.

Here's a Take: Science fiction as a genre is harder than most tolkien-esque/warhammer/wow-type fantasies for people.
Because you have your archetypes already set out there, sure you can subvert a little but ultimately you have your combo of humans, elves & dwarves, and medieval shit.

This is me on a fundamental level, really. I prefer things that *aren't* fantasy as a setting, i like the aesthetic of decay. i like abandoned things. i watch urbex things occasionally.
Fallout, Stalker are my jam simply due that fact.

Playing games like Stalker, Cyberpunk, and Horizon makes me realise fully that i like the aesthetic of modern decay.
Like ooh ah medieval fantasy ruins are a dime a dozen, but if they were 'modern' (or future in horizon's case), it appeals to me all the more.

There's something to be said about some people's willingness to give 'personhood' to a glorified predictive text engine, yet i'm willing to bet those same people, and especially the ceo's that profit from it, don't see people as people.
Probably because they see/hear what they want to see.

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.

Picked up this nail polish the other day and the camera doesn't do it justice. I might see how it'd go with a black undercoat though since it's a little translucent.

Want to avoid your family?
The solution is to move to Australia where you can be as far as humanly possible from your family, and not celebrate thanksgiving!.
