I have finally started a new job after a month of listlessness, but all my spare time has been sunk into Shadow of the Erdtree. So far, I'm having a good time. Lots of exploring, and have bumped off 2 remembrance bosses.

    oh and yeah it just uses a lot of brainworms to kind of draw the systems into view but really after that it does do a good deal of simulating what country like that would look like IE that china starts with a less democratic government than most countries and pollutes a lot and is more unequal than the US but does fairly represent what these governments seem to tend to do in other areas like china is capable of anything given its industrial base. Kind of makes me feel like even if they programmed the brainworms in, the other materialistic programming is too strong of an actual force to represent that it just fades away given little relevance and then displays that reality. Pretty fun
