It was the first game me and my husband watched the development of then were disappointed by together (well he was, I still enjoyed it) so to hear childhood related to it makes me wither away! XD
Sorry :D I must have been around 10ish when I was shown the creature creator demo before the full game came out. Not sure about the timeline afterwards but shouldn't have been too much later for the final release
Ok but we get bored with it because it's our every day. A medieval peasant would have had their minds blown at driving in a car (seriously a folk version of heaven had baskets under cows so they didn't have to shovel it, that's where their standards were.) A 70s sci fi author would've been ecstatic to see how computing changed. A neolithic person would've seen modern homes as an impossible amount of luxury and safety.
I get where the common of coming from but sometimes it's nice to take a step back and see how wild your own life is.
Yea, this is true, and sometimes you should definately just take a moment to appreciate it, but I also do like to point out that the only reason we have these luxuries is because the people from the past were unsatisfied with their lives like we are today, so it drove them to innovate and improve. Thus, dissatisfaction with your current life has a good chance of improving the lives of future humans if you act on it.
If we all just tried to be happy with the status quo of the modern times, the status quo of the future could never improve.
That's very Earth-centric of you
Gameplay of deep space probes:

I can hear the galaxy map sounds like it was yesterday...
Man, you brought some memories back. That was my childhood

Welcome to Outside.
Yeah it just takes thousands of "not the main character" people being bored day after day for decades to produce cool shit
I may be THE LIFE
It's pay to win. And a whole lot of RNG.

Fuck those future living pricks, having it better than me. What's the future ever done for me anyway?!
