Jack Jack this is a note about For All Mankind should be a game as we’re watching for It For All Mankind the Apple TV space alternative reality for the Russians get to the moon first and now they’re on Mars and everybody this is a sort of game the pacing of it where you’ve the size of the scope of the control commanding The Outpost on Mars which is maybe a dozen small buildings that might be the moon anyhow it’s it’s easy to manageable as a small crew of people maybe 20 or 30 actually looks like they’re got three levels it’s not like this games where I’ve been doing the space thing you’re doing the development and then you’re it’s just it gets too big too fast whereas I want that sort of the sizing of individual spaceships with and then one habitat and then you make that is just barely able to have three people and then you can grow that little bit and then I had another habitat set that up and set up your water extractor and that enables you to do it it’s the same basic games as we had to say Stellaris maybe or when I started playing with the digging your Mining and then you building extractors and production units and it just it just within I don’t know don’t enjoy or can’t keep up whichever it might be so I’m not sure where I could introduce this idea or as with most things it probably already exists in case but I am not sure I don’t remember doing a search for it and I have some hours on Reddit probably a board game or video game subscribe to so I can probably find it again it was a question was you know what is a game that would be it was a game at the level of what the space race is right now at in on Earth so you’ve got NASA you’ve got the Russians so whatever remains of the Soviets Russians you got China now with a space station you’ve got private Enterprises Bezos and musk with SpaceX and blue origin and they are now just in a point like it’s like every day it’s pretty hard not too many days go by with a reason I watch and you’ve got like a good not does it just turn around bank there’s another Falcon 9 going up in bangs another 34 satellites in the satellites are going like crazy too so which is a man ‘s astronomy but it’s too late now like we could stop them free it was like the scale of what we’re doing now we’ve got nation states and private Enterprise competing with the possible or probable it becomes private then becomes the competition for the the Box becomes for the for the profits becomes a driver motivator and the so-called efficiency let money Drive everything otherwise why would people do anything so that sort of scale of game and also I think that the this idea for a man for a mankind scale game I think that’s sort of what I’m playing with surviving the aftermath seems to be about that scale game so far maybe 15 people 18 people most of them just just do their thing I don’t understand I’m supposed to some I’ll direct them but I can’t seem to do that so early stages of the game or possibly a project zomboid which seems like the all these games always seem to start with your in the fan and the zombies are coming already lots of the pepper game that is everyone else is going to happen it’s going to be a year or whatever before the zombies show up it’s not your game is to find resources and then build a camp and that’s probably doable or probably what is possible it is zomboid but she’s always and yeah that’s enough about this done
