And let’s not forget: it’s full AAA price, but it feels like a finished game without hidden microtransactions for cosmetics or DLC that actually should have been part of the main game. Mod support is also free which is apparently not a given. Looking at you Bethesda with the starfield rumors.
Gameplay is modeled to be enjoyable instead of a time sink just to get you to play more.
You can play co-op with friends if you want but it doesn’t force you to always be online.
Actually, the more I think about, it’s sad how low a bar we have set for new games these days. And the worst part is, most new games can’t even pass this…
There are inverters that support battery backup, recharging from solar and grid power that are supposed to go between your grid tie-in and the rest of your house. Quite a ways more expensive, but the battery capacity is probably relatively cheap compared to UPS power and is essentially a backup for your entire house.
The one I read about a while ago was a Growatt that is basically an all in one box. Can provide power from batteries, recharge from solar or grid power, feed back excess solar power to the grid, etc, you name it. And I can imagine other brands producing the same solution.
I’m lucky enough to live in a country with almost no power cuts though. I think we have at most 1 a year for max 10 minutes. So can’t say I have any experience with it myself.
