The Planet crafter is a death sentence.

false

The Planet crafter programm by sentinel Corp is an opportunity for criminals to gain a second chance. To prove their valuable members of society, at least that's what the marketing will say. I say you just got a diferent kind of death sentence.

Think about how much money was put into sending you there and your efforts on the planet? Close to zero. You land in a small drop pod with a laughably small oxygen tank and backpack. You don't even get a building tool, you have to craft it. We know it wouldn't be that expensive at all geting you some better equipment, since an untrained individual can fully automate the process of making this better equipment.

The food you start with is so small, you are suposed to die. You don't start with a food grower, and I would argue it's nearly imposible to get to this stage without the food found in shipwrecks.

Sentinel Corp dosent want you to succeed, but to die or go crazy. In theory you recieve everything needed to terraform the planet, but think about what they don't provide you with. Seeds can be argued they knew those could be found. But what about some non raw food or a bed? The trading rocket and blueprint chips are not provided, the first is a friend of you hacking their system, the later is you most likely abusing the systems. If you don't starve to death, you will go insane or become depressed and suicidal. Sleeping on a metal floor, only eating old rations and raw veggies is bound to have you go insane.

Sentinel Corp in fact cares so litle about you, they Don't even monitor you properly. Sure there's some automated systems for you to unlock new blueprints, but if anyone ever manually checked up on you, they would sound all the alarms as soon as the first trading rocket is launched.

It's all automated, yet you don't recieve what is needed to terraform the planet.

Further prove is the secret room with all the mesage screens, the exact same you found in your drop pod.

I highly doubt you will ever leave this planet, even if the game gets a proper ending one day. Sentinel Corp will either just leave you there to rot, or the rocket you get for leaving (the blueprint, you will need to build it yourself) is riged to crash or explode. Either because they don't care about you, or get scared it comes out how many people they sent to their certain doom.
