This is why I have so much trouble with the Fallout series. I love the games and their universes but I just can't deal with how overwhelming it is to actually play and realize how much there is to do. I never had this issue with other games like Subnautica for some reason.
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir has had me thinking about these things lately. This "alien" population would be in a very narrow and unlikely band of intelligence to be intelligent enough to create a craft capable of travelling to Earth but not capable of foreseeing that we would take it. That, or taking the craft isn't actually a bad thing to the aliens and humanity is somehow of use to these aliens.
