I guess it’s easier to undertake a massive infrastructure project if you can just tell residents to move it or else…

I understand that they can’t let you play indefinitely before returning a game, but I find 2 hours very little to see if you like a game, especially for complex games.
Other games, like Rimworld or Cities: Skylines need some hours in before they make it obvious that they’re horrendously optimized or have otherwise questionable decisions (like imperfect pathfinding) that will annoy you.
I’ve had a similar experience with doner kebab. I asked the server for only half the meat and more salad instead. After I had watched him cut an unreasonable amount of meat off his rotisserie (thinking it was for a different customer) and fill a piece of bread to the brim with it, he asked ‘no salad, right?’ :/
I agree. There needs to be a middle ground. In Germany, NIMBYs opposed to wind turbines because they’re supposedly loud and ugly, as well as NIMBYs opposed to high-capacity power lines have become somewhat of a meme.
The right way to handle this is buying the land at a reasonable price (where you actually need to build on someone’s land, not buying ‘the view’).
