Wasn’t the Japan stuff in 80s scifi primarily fear that their economy would overtake the US and Europe? It was the postwar economic miracle period for Japan.

This is the objectively correct answer. The new games are incredibly bland, and there’s better old games to play before delving into the “good” old Ubisoft games.

I want this but for a flight simulator.
Or, something like Breath of the Wild only without fighting.
