That's just Roller Coaster Tycoon.

I imagine it as a mod for RimWorld.

There are so many more options there and it's already a war crime simulator. I have whole prisons of captured raiders that couldn't be described accurately if Harlan Ellison and Upton Sinclair collaborated with Lovecraft to invent the most terrible grinder of misery while they freebased paranoia from the hollowed out skull of Caligula.

The creator (Tynan) already inserts his own character among many Kickstarter donors to face the barely imaginable horrors I cook up in my misery science research facility, I can probably be more creative for people that actually deserve it.

At least we got another teaser for TES VI in 2043!

I'm not sure Saudi Arabia's The Sims 4 is going to have trouble with immorality and toxic masculinity

Because SIms 5 onwards is cloud gaming only and therefore cannot be modded, also the servers shut off so literally no one can play it anymore.

Tarball is love. Tarball is life.

Well they haven't released a new version of the Sims in forever. So I'm guessing the idea is that they just never do make another one.

You can make a similar joke about GTA, by 2050 will still be on GTA 6 except it will be on the PlayStation 8 and being its fourth HD re-release

I still prefer The Sims 3.

ooo, i like this version where the basilisk feasts on the digital consciousnesses of techbros and is content to leave the rest of us alone

I think I would just put Musk into a 1x1 tile basement and use cheats to keep the needs bars that keep him from dying filled.

Put them all in a mansion with 1 chair, 1 bed, no doors to the outside, no windows, no entertainment

This is why I think these apocalypse bunkers for rich people are so funny. I saw some designs for one, and it was like 10 floors of luxury apartments with a giant armory underneath for protection.

Sure, let's take a couple of hundred sociopaths, narcissists and entitled dickheads and seal them in a bunker with limited food and entertainment options, on top of a huge pile of weapons. I genuinely think you'd last longer on the outside with whatever's happening lol.

I'd at least make sure that when I do forget it's still running on a laptop somewhere.

Yup, came here to say this is a spoiler for SOMA. Plenty of happy ethical issues here to unpack.

Mandalore Gaming just did his review of it as well. Its fresh in a lot of peoples brain space.

SOMA is a bit of a mindfuck and I loved it.

Goddamnit, Elon! You have fifteen kids, you have to go to work!

Elon pisses on the floor and scrolls social media before going back to bed.

You should read the Cask of Amontillado to answer your question about doors

I sometimes wonder about that with doing a sort of Ship of Theseus thing with the human brain. By that I mean, say you could just replace the part of the brain that does something minor like processes taste or controls balance with a chip, you'd presumably still be the same person at the core, just with a chip doing some parts for you. But then if you kept going, at what point would it stop being the original person? Are we the sort of lizard-core part of the brain? What if you replaced that but kept the original part that governs intellect? Are we our intellect? Or some combination of the two? Which parts would end the 'original' person's existence if removed? Could we even tell?
