Eh, the series you mentioned was mediocre at best - started watching it again a month ago (coincidence!) and couldn't get past the second episode. I was talking about the books...

Oh sure, I enjoyed the series Electric Dreams based on Philip K Dick's stories. And some of them were just magic-fiction, like a mysterious station that appears and dissappears. It's clear raising up debates about society is more important than scientific accuracy.
But with so many movies exploring other planets, alien races, sometimes very close planets... Scientific accuracy also plays a key role. For example, living in Mars would be pretty chaotic even after the terraforming due to 0.38G, so all stories about Mars are rendered impossible after this quick (and common knowledge) though. Talk about lack of suspension of disbelief there for someone who knows a little bit about gravity.
It's funny how things much more complicated, like hybernating for 300 years or reaching close to light speeds, which are both probably impossible, is often made more believable.
Oh and yes, this game is very dark. I'd also add the option of being the alien.

Quote from: rexbeng on Today at 17:46I fixed it. I think it's totally appropriate now.Can you also do the same treatment to the car? We don't know how it identifies, after all.
PS unfortunately, I have to say, as emphatically as I can: I don't give a flying fuck what someone does or feels with regards to sexuality. I'm happy if they're happy. Are you gay? Fantastic. Are you trans? Good for you! Are you whatever makes you feel good? Fist bump! But I can't stand all this noise. And, because I really don't care about appearances, I understand this paragraph may offend some - if that's the case, I'm sincerely sorry.

Arthur Clarke did that, and -while I absolutely love some of his work- his books are probably the most dry in the world of sci Fi, his heroes being totally wooden and unable to relate to.
There's such a thing as suspension of disbelief in every kind of fiction.
Is PK Dick realistic? That's laughable. Is he someone I wish I could kiss the shoes of? Absolutely.
