>its pure, its clean, its smooth
>it perfected video gaming right at the very start
humans in 10,000 years time could be playing this. how did they nail it at the very beginning?

If Space Invaders was such a landmark game then how come it wasn't sent into space for potential alien discovery?

It could be seen as offensive to aliens.

>attack, dodge, attack, dodge
its literally Elden Ring

for my money the best invaders clone is galaxian
the extra score for catching them on the descent/taking out their leader during an attack makes it way more fun and less mindless

If we ever make contact I imagine there will be a content advisory message before certain games such as Space Invaders to address stereotypical or negative depictions of aliens similar to what Disney does with its old cartoons.

everyone talks about the fermi paradox, but imo the real paradox would be if this kind of lightning struck twice. there aint no one out there. the fact were here, at all, is already so absurd
>nice friendly stable yellow dwarf star that doesnt kick out massive CMEs and flares constantly
>planet with fully self-contained carbon cycle and self-replenishing atmosphere
>molten core that provides magnetic shielding and helps replenish the atmosphere too
>orbiting in the literal perfect goldilocks zone given our atmosphere and sun
>a nice moon to help stabilize our orbit and help keep our core hot
>system has MULTIPLE gas giants to catch any strays that come in
>but at the same time were actually far enough to where said gas giants dont just immediately fry us with their massive magnetic fields
and even with all of that, all it takes is some nearby star going supernova, or a pulsar or a magnetar farting out a FRB, and everything in the whole system will be instakilled. and all the atmospheres stripped clean off

theres just no way all of that lines up twice, during the same timeframe, and also nearby enough to where we could even communicate nvm travel to
imo, if we ever DO find life outside our planet, it will be basically unrecognizable as "life". i just dont think humans were designed to be able to handle space in the way that wed need to in order to traverse it. so if theres any other humanoids actually like us? theyre likely stuck too. meanwhile, whatever DOES thrive in space would probably look more like some sort of unknown chemical reaction. we likely wouldnt even recognize that its sentient, nvm try to communicate with it

tl;dr
fermi was being optimistic, frankly

Where are the cinematics and the pointless open world with pavlovian objectives though?
