I love how every single source emphasizes it’s “single-planet”, just because it’s by Hello Games.
Cause fantasy games with dragons are famously known to all contain interstellar travel.
I love how just a year ago, he was the one to call out FTX.

The guy with a gun, whom they’ve been talking to for days and has not hurt them in the slightest looked much less dangerous than the impending doom of the police barging in and shooting the wrong person.
