  • it just lets you doom the world if you really want to.

    …and it still leaves a back route to complete the main quest. You just have to murder the living god who is a mantling of Mephala to start the alternate route.

    the amount of lore to explore is HUGE

    …and then you come up for air after reading the 36 Sermons of Vivec, realizing that very basic steganographic techniques were used to conceal at least a couple of hidden messages withing them and the start branching out from there into trying to understand the concepts of CHIM and the Towers and Amaranth and so on trying to wrap your head around the metaphysics of the setting.

    The bubble where he can’t just download some freely available tools and a model file around 10GB and make something like that on basically any gaming computer from the last 5 years by typing in a description? Because that’s not going away - only the massive investment circle-jerks throwing money at things with no real product, no solid idea of what a product would look like and no plan of ever turning a profit are going away, and possibly causing a recession in the process.

    Oops that’s eugenics!

    Eh, eugenics work. If not dog breeds wouldn’t exist.

    We’re just really, really bad at agreeing on what genes are good ones and attempts at filtering for good genes in humans tend to more or less immediately become about skin color because of course they do. And also it being basically impossible to do without massive human rights violations.

    But being difficult, massively immoral and unethical and usually in practice just an excuse for simple racism doesn’t mean it doesn’t work.



  • By comparison, I know of a couple (met their kid), who had divorced and remarried each other so many times (often but not always with another marriage in between) that the last time they had to go to a different state because my state refused to do it yet again. Apparently the state will let you get married and divorced as many times as you’d like, but only so many times with the same partner.
