Wow.

Vangers is a postapocalyptic and fundamentally strange top-down driving/exploration/mystery/action-RPG.

It has a unique back story, hostile worlds and an intriguing and expansive vocabulary that helps tell the story. If you are the type of person that appreciates poetic neologisms because they get your brain going, guessing at the etymology and sucking up the layers of connotation, this is up your alley.

Even if you manage to complete the game, you’ll be left wondering whether what happened was even meant to happen. It’s sort of post modern with deconstructed words, rituals and behaviors all jumbled up and muddled together as a result of a great and important event that once had meaning to creatures that may no longer even exist.

So is your car the only car in the universe? As far as I recall the only form of local transportation has been that miniature train system on New Atlantis. If your own transport ships need to travel to an outpost 200 meters away, they go to space and back to get there.

I’m really struggling with this game. I got it on sale and played for 3+ hours, but somehow it didn’t grip me. It was really annoying having to constantly start over. Not trying to detract from other people’s experience of it.

I am not up my ass. I am my ass.

Okay, but she’s about 29.

I am personally okay with that, as this is intended to be a simplification. A simplification by definition can’t include all information. But there’s a difference between omitting information and including misleading information. My problem’s with the latter in this case.

This looks misleading to me, because it indicates that grandchildren and their descendants can have very disproportionate amounts of genes from either grandparent.

The genes inherited from a parent do not sit in one continuous chunk, as indicated here.

Instead they are pulled randomly from all over the parent’s genome, and so they end up taking up places all over the offspring’s genome as well.

This has the effect that relatedness is consistently halved through the generations. (Though minor variations occur in the short term)

Timemore C3 Pro. Fits perfectly with a 2 cup Bialetti for a ~250 mL americano.

‘Faster’ should be read as ‘make it technologically feasible faster’, yeah? Not that the engine itself can reduce the travel time to Mars in a meaningful way.

Fossil record says no

Humans too.
