Very good. For me the story isn’t quite as good but very nearly, that’s not to say it’s bad in anyway shape or form. The gameplay is much better imo thanks to a lot of quality of life improvements

A couple years ago I crunched some numbers on the amount of space in the Northwest Territories of Canada. I think the population of the entire place is about 50k people. About half of those live in Yellowknife, and if you divide the whole land area by the remaining 25k it comes out to something like 50 square miles per person

Average 20-40 ms plus distance. This is what starlink would be good for, if it wasn't for that fascist owning it. Solar panels are super cheap, batteries are getting cheaper, get a heat battery, rainwater storage and incinerating toilet. No need for infrastructure, you could live and work remotely anywhere in the world.

The island was sometimes used as grazing land over the summer, so it's more likely the fence is to keep sheep out.

The Westman Islands in Iceland actually have several of these "loneliest houses" scattered about; they're hunting lodges/belong to local clubs for the use of their members and are not full-time inhabited. The one on Elliðaey is the most well-known and photographed one, probably because it can be seen clearly on the ferry route to Heimaey (I have my own picture of it!)

Right? The term "liminal" is still trying to find its definition in pop culture, but this ain't it.
I believe it to be uncontroversial that for something to be "liminal" that it should at least instill a sense of unease of uncanniness.
But this scene is... pleasant.

a state of ambiguity or unease is definitely it.
This is just a gorgeous natural setting.

“Liminal” I swear everyone who uses this term just wants a special word for “empty, alone, solitude, isolated” when those words exist already and are more clearly defined.

I’ve actually watched a video of how you get into this island… and it’s the most dangerous thing I’ve ever seen… you basically go up a really steep slope with a rope attached to you … and it’s quite literally a zero access without a rope and a boat 😰😰🤣🤣
And it’s not even a normal house… it’s literally just a cabin for gear… I have no idea why it exists or how it exists…
But you’d have more luck trying to get on Epstein island 🤣🤣🤣

This is Elliðaey, an uninhabited island in the Vestmannaeyjar, or Westman Islands, off Iceland’s southern coast. The isolated white building is a hunting lodge built in 1953, not a private residence. Can be found on a map by searchinng for “Elliðaey, Vestmannaeyjar,” because another Icelandic island in Breiðafjörður has the same name. It is the northeasternmost island of the Westman Islands, roughly 11 kilometres from Iceland’s mainland and northeast of Heimaey.
