This is a universe with faster than light travel and near infinite resources. There's a homeless shelter in one of the major cities. I helped them out. Why the fuck is there a homeless shelter in a universe with FTL and near infinite resources?

I'm starting to think Fallout under Bethesda isn't a satire and their writers are just incapable of imagining anything beyond capitalism.

    I got star citizen cuz the real-distances of planets and moons and all that was very cool to me, so while I did have fun flying around looking at the temperature gauge on different moons, i realized it wasn't really going anywhere and it sucks that science stuff is probably the least developed part of the game and likely wont change for a while, for all the reasons ive seen you talk about. Need capitalism to end so we can get better space science sims

      the real-distances of planets and moons and all that

      berdly-actually The Stantion System's distances between planets and the planets themselves are only a fraction of the size they'd actually be with the gravity they have. It's miniaturized, which wouldn't matter to me except the hype put out is lying and I don't like that.

      Did you try Space Engine? Sounds like something that might be for you as it's aiming for maximum realism. The spaceflight part was kinda underdeveloped last time I played it but you can fly ships if you want to.

      Also Elite Dangerous has realistic distances between planets too.
