I really don't like his logic. He isolates certain plot points in specific contexts then leaves those contexts in his rebuttal. Same with the rest of his videos I've bothered to watch.

He buys that they have the technology to create a city in the sky, and in the same breath says it wouldn't work because of sea sickness? Or a simple heating problem?

Technology usually advances in all fields- if they have the technological ability to build the city, you'd think they'd also have Tums. You'd also think that in the planning and pre-construction phases of the city any competent engineers would have noted the problems and not proceeded without implementing some sort of solution.

The game's logic holds more water than his. Under his reasoning, within the game's universe technology would have had to have been developed in narrowly specific fields, and all the engineers on the project (most likely a great number) would have to be entirely incompetent to make such a blunder. The idea that they found solutions to these problems that aren't explained is easier to swallow.

that sea sickness thing is pure bullshit... dude, our brains can asjust to visual and other stimulation extremely well! someone even successfully let his brain adjust his vision to a mirrored image, he put on lenses that mirrored his vew upside down and left to rigt and after a couple of days his brain adjusted his view and to him it was like he wasn't wearing the lenses anymore...

so to think that there is no way people could adjust to the look of moving clouds is just ignorant.

i never in my life felt motion sickness of any kind, not on a ship, not while playing games in a moving car or any other occasion, why should moving clouds be a problem for me! and thats not considering the fact that you could just... i donno... turn the fuck around and look at one of the damn buildings whenever you might feel sick and develop techniques like looking on the ground for example to reduce your problems...

i liked the video until this "theory" because it simply can't compete with common sense...
