There is no safe for RTS. The genre is too niche and varied (yes I know that's counter intuitive). StarCraft is already the safest formula but even then it's not. There's two very different games that really only share lore and some very minor mechanics. They could angle more towards Warcrafts style as it's unlikely they'll ever make another Warcraft RTS, but that's not a safe call either.

Making any RTS is a risk right now.

They didn't pay their membership dues.

Unfortunately, there's no requirement for credentials to be a judge. It's typically lawyers but they don't have to be.

That was a documentary, not fantasy.

So the thing to understand is that while well designed cities have good public transit, what they actually have better is walkability. You should be able to do most of your business without taking any transit options. This saves the disabled woman from needing to use transit and helps reduce the amount of service animals in transit.

There still needs to be some degree of mixing but there's limitations as to how protected we can make things for everyone. Some people have an airborne allergy to peanuts but we aren't going to ban peanuts everywhere to accommodate. People with severe animal allergies will have up continue finding ways to cope since we aren't going to ban people from having pets. The best we can do is what's reasonable.

He was going to get it no matter what. There really was no path where Kotic got fucked

I can definitely get behind that. Most of the political anger is setup with this pot stirring he said she said shit. Granted, there still is a place for some of the puffery "I'm going to pass a law to do X" even though it may or may not happen. A lot of them can be total bullshit, like hopelessly unpopular laws being put into consideration that have no hope of even getting to vote, let alone passing. But at least that is real politics rather than the simple shit slinging of editorial content today.

That was back when labor was biological. The only form of automation was animal labor. Now machines can do so much without any human labor at all. Taxing income only gets worse since these machines don't have an income. Some companies can run without any human interaction at all, just a company self inflating it's value. I'll only get worse with AI and robotics. We need a way to keep these companies from just consuming all resources and paying nothing back.

There can be some good reasons to own multiple homes, so rather than banning it you tax it. That way people can still do it and the city gets more funding for allowing it. Those that can't do the tax will sell down.

Yes but it wasn't on loan with interest. They were working off investor cash, Musk is working with loans.

It's not the steam return window doing that. The devs are drip feeding you mechanics and every mechanic seems interesting when first introduced. You can't really assess them until you start using them. So every game can feel fresh for a couple hours before you realize the tedium.

They managed to build a playable game. It wasn't great but it did mostly function. The big issue was that they made it with a loved franchise. Had this been a game in a new setting, it probably wouldn't have been beaten up so badly.
