Finland/Iceland/Sweden/Norway/Denmark sci fi indie shows and movies always follow the rule too. Katla, The Rain, Aniara, Melancholia, etc

The nordics, even. Scandinavia is just Sweden/Norway/Denmark.

Iceland games bring an extra amount of "the players will come back for more in-game abuse" though. Eve Online and the (failed) Dust:514 are stand-out examples of totally unforgiving yet (somehow) rewarding gameplay.

If From Software contracted out to Icelandic game devs, the result would be a game that's harder than diamonds and a lifetime achievement to complete.

The Rain's final seasons kind of went off the deep end, though.

I'll buy their games but I'm far too bubbly and talkative for their liking.

In Finland it is perfectly acceptable to mid meal grab your plate and silverware and go eat somewhere else stating that you are "Having too much of the spoons."
