Fucking Dallas, TX. Of all the major cities in North America, Dallas is the most devoid of culture. It is a city inhabited by cars, not people. If you took the average of all North American cities, it would be Dallas, but not in a way that derives any value from the cities included in the average. If you asked an LLM to generate an American metroplex, you would get a low-resolution, but otherwise one-to-one map of Dallas and Ft. Worth. Dallas is the backrooms except with a clear view of the sky.
Dallas is Night City without the cool tech or culture, just the crushing capitalism and roads…
Edit:
I wrote this on a base level comment but I’m going to put it here too:
Dallas is a soulless corpse where you can’t walk anywhere due to highways, but it you use the highways then it’s like trying to dodge clicking on sketchy ads trying to trick you to click them on PC, except the ads are toll roads. Also every car is trying to kill you. I tried to go to a music show once. It was in a really run down part of town with sketchy people standing around staring at us. There was no signage. We weren’t even sure we were in the right place and no one looked friendly so we just left, and got hit by more surprise tolls on the way back. You can’t leave your house there without having to pay money. It is the most miserable place I’ve ever been.
