MODERATORS
The gender gap isn't closing because the corporations are nice it's closing because states are actively promoting and forcing corporations into it.
If you go to space and reduce the state's involvement and corporations will seize on each and every single thing they can to save money and exploit people more. The marginalised will be the hyper-exploited the further into the periphery you get. The central core planets might be better off.
Given that the explanation for the scattering of human facilities on all the planets in the game seems to be that humanity had some huge "colony war" and a lot was lost, I think that crime and all kinds of other stuff would have gone through the roof in that time.
What I'm seeing in game so far is a girl-boss neoliberal vision of what they pretend these problems will become here on earth, not a materialist interpretation of what these problems would be in space. Cowboy Bebop presents a much more realistic vision of capitalism in space.
Mods are gonna rock for this though. The political problems in the game can be solved.
From what I've read just turning off the essential flag on the main cast and then mercilessly shoving all their lib asses out the nearest airlock will drastically improve the political situation.
Lmao what did they do to Yshtola and why is she so god damned annoying in this aaaaaaaaa shut up shut up shut up. I really like her voice actress in FFXIV but in this I really want to launch her into space.
New MandaloreGaming review has a game that touches on this idea a lot.
