    Looks pretty and it’s important as an optimistic counterbalance to cyberpunk or other dystopian settings, but trees growing on the side of skyscrapers isn’t really functional or sustainable.

    While it’s fantasy, for sure, I think that a setting directly inspired by sustainable thinking has a responsibility to portray an accurate representation.

      If its escapist that makes it actually more black pilled than it lets on.

      I don’t see the problem with trees on the side of skyscrapers. I could see multiple reasons for this, but that would require more idealization.
