So why are we arguing for nuclear when nuclear and hydro both have that same problem of being necessarily megaprojects with huge risks if anything is mismanaged, incorrectly planned, or getting attacked in some way.
When we could instead argue for solar plus storage which is cheaper, much less vulnerable to attacks/ disaster, often good for the microclimate where it’s deployed, without any need for permanent staffing, has a much more resonable path to resource recovery at eol. …
Slay the Spire without doubt 2.5k on steam plus some switch and mobile.
If you group the Trackmania games those do come close, and maybe Minecraft but I have barely touched that game in the last decade and no way to check hours from back then.
The problem is it’d all work better, be cheaper, more livable … if more of that infrastructure we pay for would not be car infrastructure but almost anything else.
Or coming at it from the other side, just because a lot of the transportation upstream from my consumption is car infrastructure does not make it resonable to allocate the lions share of infrastructure spending on it, especially because everywhere any alternative exists to road infrastructure it’ll be more physically efficient by default.
Arguing for car use for transportation much like continuing to argue for oil gas and coal electricity generation is shortsighted and ignores the problems with car infrastructure, and the viability of alternatives, just because car infrastructure is how transportation currently is conceived of in much of the world.
They do this for festivals and construction sites and such in conjunction with the typically fossils generators nowadays. Not everywhere but it definitely exists. Exactly like described: Shipping container, batteries and inverter inside, 4 legs, and 2 Shipping container long solar arrays mounted to a frame. Set the container down anchor the legs put the panel frames up connect some wires and your ready to go.
I’m pretty sure you could just buy that too if you wanted a head start on your off grid cabin.
The ‘Screamer’ remake of this year definitely has story and progression. I haven’t played it myself but I’ve watched quite a bit of playthrough and for racing games the narrative was downright impressive.
The driving is apparently some kind of twin stick drift thing which seems interesting but yeah I can’t say much about that.
Presentation is very modern gatcha-esque, so some impressive cg plus 2d animation, and a lot of character sprite plus textbox vn style dialogue, fully voiced but with subtitles as default as the characters are voiced in their in universe language. So unless you are a real polyglot you’ll be reading.
There is main and side story’s, several teams with 3 characters each, seemingly real world building, writing that is especially for racing games quite bold and competent, lots of narrative conflicts, with characters having interna. Depending on how you feel it might be a tad edgy or anime for you, but from what I’ve seen it’s not particularly egregious, no high school stuff, only somewhat exaggerated characters, no edge without some story basis…
So it’s definitely big budget, but it seems to not have really gathered that much attention.
