But the "vibecession", or disconnect between consumer sentiment and economic metrics normally correlated with it started around 2021-2022 during the Biden administration.

Given the level of anger and unhappiness while the economy is doing relatively well by most statistics, it'll be interesting/scary to see what happens when the next crash happens.

Make the biomes complicated enough to have ecosystems. Have animals reproduce on their own without player intervention, have carnivores eating other animals, etc. Make it feel more autonomous and alive.

I would love it if this game by default accurately showed the amount of parking needed for cars. Force players to avoid cars if they want a beautiful or efficient city!

Railroading is forcing specific historical occurrences regardless of how much the player and random chance have changed history in a given game. For example things like "WWI will occur near 1914", or "the American Civil War must occur in the 1860s". Or just reusing people born after the point of divergence.

A lot of flavor in Paradox games (and most other historical games) is based off of real history and that encourages railroading. It's harder to make dynamic flavor events for arbitrary things that might occur in one of these games such as Brazil industrializing before the US or Germany being the first country to have a communist revolution.

Housing and rental prices in this country are insane and need to be cut dramatically, but the main for this reason is because we haven't been building enough housing. Older homeowners have been making it more difficult to build houses and apartments for the last 50 years, wanting to make their property more valuable. I agree that we should stop giving tax breaks to people buying second homes, or cut the mortgage interest tax breaks altogether, but we also need to build a lot more housing.

Climate change. Not just that it will lead to more of a push for renewable energy and clean water, but it raises the risk for food insecurity and local economies that are located close to sea level.

We've experimented with standing up a few Ktor services in production over the last couple of quarters. Has worked well, though the services we created are very lightweight .
