Oh no, this has nothing to do with what my non-canon HFY playthough character's best interests are, nothing as selfish as that. It's about what lies in humanity's best interest. There is some prime real estate down there, and I don't think it's written in our human rights that it also applies to aliens.I suppose it all ultimately depends on what your character sees as being in his best interest, no?![]()
You make a good point, yeah, though this is of course working under the assumption that they are just what they seem, small primitive space goblins. Containing can definitely work fine in such a scenario, though in this day and future age, there isn't much need for manual labour, especially from a race we only have confirmed sightings of around a few thousand members. Also, I am offended that you are insinuating that somehow eradicating / subjugating / containing aliens who stand in the way of human colonial expansion somehow is a "bad guy" thing to do. Like the Pratchett quote said, this is totally how we solve racism. Don't you want to solve racism?Wiping them out is a waste of resources. Even if they are hostile and cannot be reasoned with, it's better to try to turn them from a liability into an asset by containing them or subjugating them. Their extermination can also negatively affect the ecosystems.
Only dumb bad guys destroy things because it's more convenient.![]()
And I am looking forward to drop some more hot takes in the future.Y'know, I think the thing I enjoy most about making this game is seeing you guys play and discuss it. I -really- am looking forward to your thoughts as this game hots up
Just remember actions have consequences...Unless you cover your tracks![]()
