For anybody thinking this new game will be anything like XCOM prepare for disappointment.

Jake has previously said that he is leaving turn-based tactics games behind.

And his tweet announcing Midsummer even says "it's going to seem very different from what I've done before."

Agreed. Plus the animal testing is bad.

I'm hopeful that the tech won't be abused because it's life changing for those that need it.

The 29-year-old complete quadriplegic shared that he had lost sensation and suffered paralysis from below the shoulders after sustaining a spinal injury during a diving accident eight years ago

Arbaugh also revealed that the implant had given him the freedom to pull an all-nighter playing the strategy game Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 - something that he could not have done on his own before the surgery.

This is the kind of use case for neuralink that I'm okay with.
