Emmymade on YouTube did an “Apocalypse Dinner” featuring these whole canned things, the chicken, brown bread, and cheese being the subjects of the video.
She’s pretty fun and tries out some odd stuff occasionally, but this particular episode stuck in my mind as I’d never seen one of these prepared and eaten before. She also has Apocalypse Breakfast, Hamburger In A Can, among others.
So… you get room service? Like… how far do these workers stay from these rooms? Can they see you pee and take a dump? Where do you clean yourself? Do you get a refund if it rains? Is a simple hotel room somewhere nearby cheaper than this gourmet outdoor experience?
The beds are outside in the countryside, usually on fields that are owned by the farmers who offer the “rooms”, so they’re a bit secluded.
You’re brought there by said farmer, he shows you around a bit, shows the fridge, etc. Then he leaves again.
If you need any room service, you just call up the farmer and he comes back to bring it.
No idea about toilets, but I think you’d also have to walk back to the farm. Same if it rains. Pretty much all of those openair hotels are ran by those kinds of farmers anyway, who were used to hotel guests as they’ve been offering “sleeping in the hey” kinda things since years, so for them, it’s pretty much the same, except being a little (sometimes a lot) further away and being logistically a bit more challenging.
which is what happened with frostpunk for me. i made it through the main story once, and bought it and the DLCs at full price. 5 years after it came out.
I test the games because most of the time it’s buggy shit, or AAA games. Few gems here and there and I will pay for them when I know they are good. The 2 hour refund which isn’t enough imo…games are designed to be trash after the 2 hours tbh…or at least don’t show the trash until after the 2 hour mark.
There has been a few times where I even had to refund after purchasing because the ‘totally legit edition’ actually worked, whereas the DRM filled trash didn’t.
