    Obviously this game should not be out, and the features are very barebones... but whatever, I'm patient. The real and unforgivable problem with this game is something that almost certainly will not change throughout development. The writing is that of a truly insufferable millennial woman. If you want the experience this game provides, without paying $15, just go ask your HR lady about her views on politics.
