Lest we forget: SPORE
rohina:
Dude, define "easier". Have you hunted? Have you hunted with primitive weaponry? Have you farmed? Seems to me that this is an armchair theory with nothing to support it.
rufio:
Eh, there have been studies that prove that hunter-gatherers spent less time working compared to farmers. I don't think I read any of them online, though, so I guess you'll just have to take my word for it. Obviously if you're used to doing one, the other is going to sound harder.
ETA: If you have any faith in a wikipedia article of disputed neutrality, there is some info about it here. I'm not claiming it's necessarily accurate, but it's more or less what I would have said if I had more time and gave more of a shit.
Faizah:
"Less time working" does not necessarily mean it was easier work.
Zazazu:
Well, this is interesting. Every time I start a game on a new planet, yet another planet is added next time I fire up the game. I'm up to eight saved games and the last three times I've started one, I've had exactly six more possible planets to start on.
Hunter-gatherer societies just aren't feasible in the age we live in now. There isn't enough viable land to support current population. Now, if we were like the Goompahs in Jack McDevitt's Omega, this wouldn't be an issue. But I can't close my fallopian tubes at a whim. Can you?

"Disputed neutrality:" so you are asking us to rely on something less reliable than regular wikipedia? And you don't give a shit? Dude, this is Retardo Land. If you don't want to back up your arguments with solid evidence, don't start with us.
