Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir has had me thinking about these things lately. This “alien” population would be in a very narrow and unlikely band of intelligence to be intelligent enough to create a craft capable of travelling to Earth but not capable of foreseeing that we would take it. That, or taking the craft isn’t actually a bad thing to the aliens and humanity is somehow of use to these aliens.
This is why I have so much trouble with the Fallout series. I love the games and their universes but I just can’t deal with how overwhelming it is to actually play and realize how much there is to do. I never had this issue with other games like Subnautica for some reason.
