    The fun thing most of these games aren’t even truly capitalist. City builders like Cities Skylines, Tropico and Anno have little or no free market and you’re just in control of a centralized planned economy.

    The only truly capitalist games I saw on that list are X4 and Offworld Trading Company since you play as a single private owner competing with others on the market.







  • “Engineer” means you’re supposed to be licensed and you have a responsibility for the public good above your responsibility to your employer.

    Good point. We definitely don’t, and it’s what’s causing huge amounts of trouble in the world, rather than using software for the greater good.

    But engineer sounds better by some definitions, and it strokes the ego of employees, so companies like to use it to give more prestige to the role.
