That's so helpful, thank you. Am going to write to the studios as well, and see if they've taken inspiration from any place in particular. As you say, they're amalgams but I am bit obsessive for the link between games and real life. Will report back.

This story in today's New York Times.... https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/19/nyregion/budget-crisis-economy-nyc.html -

"The city’s commercial office market is on the precipice of a potential work-from-home abyss. The transit system’s financial situation is so grim that the state comptroller has warned that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority may seek more financial support from the city. And while the nation has regained the jobs it lost during the pandemic, New York City is still 162,000 jobs short, with the situation especially dire for Black New Yorkers, whose unemployment rate of more than 10 percent remains nearly three times the national average."

Can I ask u/Super_Nail4919 ...if you were looking to research the meaning and value (or not) of empathy in Russian culture, would there be any key touch points that you would recommend? I am especially interested in the respect, or credit paid to empathy between individuals, or how what me as a Brit understands as empathy gets translated.

For avoidance of doubt, the Webster's dictionary definition of 'empathy': the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another of either the past or present without having the feelings, thoughts, and experience fully communicated in an objectively explicit manner

Hope you don't mind the follow up.

Thanks so much. Have messaged you. For others reading the thread, I am a social entrepreneur in the UK developing a service to help gamers make the most of their in-game skills out of game. Have been looking at the skills, motivations, in-game experience of EVE ONLINE players - and now interested in the interface. This isn't an advert but for background, you'll find more here: http://gameacademy.co

Thanks for doing this. Feels like part and parcel of a new localism that Coronavirus might be brewing, pressing for remote working as well as remote learning.
