THANK YOU.
I’m sort of peeved that boardgames has gone from a “hey, I get to sit in meat space not staring at a monitor and doing something fun with friends” into a consumerist dog and pony show.
I was hoping this was going to be “you take the PRR and run it over the B&O” and “you try and get your train company to Chicago” or “you never build, only auction or develop” but yeah, it’s mostly about what you own and what you’re buying.
I saw someone ask on Mastodon if we are witnessing the next evolution of humanity; those who can be skeptical of the information they are presented with vs just agreeing with it because it tells them what they want to hear. The example was that a disproportionate number of conservatives died from just not believing information about covid from people who were smarter (at this specific subject) than they were.
