very difficult to replicate. maybe more devs and publishers will start looking at dwarf fortress and other games that trade exclusively in emergent/ludic gameplay for inspiration, rather than ubi-style checklist design. i expect a lot of them will get it very wrong
p.s. i feel like i've been posting some variation of "the real stories in games are the ones the players create" idea for years on this forum
