While I’m all for decentralization, I don’t really see a reasonable way around this. Someone has to manage the infrastructure, and at a certain scale that’s going to be large corporations. However, as long as these services continue to be interchangeable and unlinked to the fediverse, I don’t see this as too serious of an issue.
I always thought Enterprise really nailed Andorians. They weren’t the most extreme in terms of makeup and prosthetics, but they were convincingly alien and unique. I think the most impressive part was that the design made it believable that there were different Andorians who looked different. I suppose we quite literal saw this with the Aenar, which helps.
Shenzhen I/O is one of my favorite games, along with TIS-100. I think it’s time to just dive in and go through the rest of the zacktronic games.
