I agree, huge open worlds are often exhausting for me, and the developer need to fill it often ends up with cheap copy and past Ubisoft methods (collectibles, etc)

If Skyrim was the size of say, Assassins Creed Odyssey, it would've honestly suffered horribly, largely because one of Skyrims best features was the fact that their map was handcrafted and full of detail and secrets.

Sure you can add secrets to a procgen map, but that developer process that lead to the best ones are largely gone.

As an American I didn't even think of the automatic transmission. That makes a lot of sense too.

Modal transport design is probably a huge reason why this works. I would be interested to see the pedestrian deaths in a packed busy city like NYC vs the wide suburban roads of the rest of America.

My theory is that roads designed with the purpose of driving faster (designed with a higher modal level) are commonly placed within high pedestrian areas within the US (Stroads) and due to that higher modal mental state people are "comfortable" and thus use their phones as their brains are less occupied. While in a busy city street they're in that 1st modal mental state so they are focused on their surroundings way more.

Oh it is lol, political cartoons?? There are entire chapters dedicated to those. Political memes are 100% going to be studied in the same vein

What happens is some kid gets a gossip app which takes their contact data and then uses it to send this shit.

I used to get it pretty often too when I was in school.

Couldn't you just say "Vampires hate them!" If you don't know? Seems easier imo
