The other week I was talking to a uni prof for assistance with a problem I was trying to solve. He didn't know the answer, had Claude rewrite my code from scratch. I sat there an hour as he slowly arrived back at where I had been myself, with all the same issues, except Claude made it 3x as messy

It's either this, E33 or Bananza but yeah, I don't think it's a close race

A lot of video-game publishers spend hundreds of millions of dollars chasing after "realistic graphics" and "massive open-worlds" when what players really want is just a shitload of weird little guys

That's for the most part what I did, but I didn't realize just how close to 46 I actually got, I expected way more obstacles. I was like "Wait, I could literally go there right now" and so I did

Other than that it's an absolutely brilliant game, and I'm gonna keep playing because I really want to fully understand what is up with the story. I'm just in love with the atmosphere and world of Blue Prince and I can't let it go just yet. I was actually kinda sad when the credits rolled

I got to room 46 as well a few days ago, with not as much of the story uncovered as I'd have liked. Now I'm just clinging onto hope that there is another ending that makes solving everything else worth it, because I'm a bit disappointed most puzzles could just be ignored for the room 46 search

A solid portion of that is farming for clown awards to get steam points. Honestly one of the dumbest additions they made to the platform, now people are posting unhinged attention seeking bait everywhere

Honestly same, but at the same time I'm glad there isn't because it makes the game last longer. I'm obsessed with it

I wonder if society is prepared for the amount of undecipherable bugs and tech debt ML/LLM users might be introducing in the name of short term productivity

For a single mission from earth to the lunar surface and back, the required energy stays largely the same no matter where the station is situated, but as you said, this way it's a lot more reachable for orbital supply crafts.

I think the main thing B*rger is on about is the fact that landers need to spend more propellant to travel from gateway's highly elliptical orbit down to the surface, but that would only really become relevant for repeated missions between station and surface, something that currently isn't planned

More notably, the moon's density isn't very uniform, which leads to low lunar orbits being quite unstable due to gravity fluctuations. A station in LLO would require far more propellant for stationkeeping.

In all fairness, FH still uses the F9 sized fairing (which they're already nearly fully utilizing for F9 Starlink launches), so its increased range is probably a bigger strength than its higher payload capacity to LEO. Though I still doubt it would launch more often if it had a bigger fairing
