Naw, it's not too tecnological advanced, it is steam powered.

We have Death-Ray-Wielding AIs, Laser Swords, Mobile Suits, Jetpacks, deranged antigravity Roombas, aircraft that clearly don't have the wing area to actually fly, and you're concerned about oversized Power Wheels being 'anachronistic'?

There are also buses and dee-dee transports, so not a stretch
Nah, its honestly lower tech than the train we ride in on. I mean, one of the earlier major projects is to build a mecha suit that pops up over and over again throughout the story so... as long as it keeps the "scrappy" aesthetic of being salvaged tech, I see no issue with a dune buggy at all. I also *really* doubt it would show up as an alternate mount if thats the concern.

We have unearthed fully functioning AI (one of which fell down from a space station) in the series. No. No, I don't think a sand buggy is too advanced, lol. I mean heck, just compare it to flying mechanical pig.

I just hope it controls like a mount and not like the disaster of trying to run a sandsled.

ETA: I am happy about these, though, I was quite disappointed to see them in Catori World and not have them usable.

dunno, maybe it's just the look that seems too advanced. all the other things in game have the scrappy look of something newly rediscovered. afterall no one in "my time at" has cars or bikes

You're looking for the article titled Sandrock Devlog: Recent Work Update, which can be found in all three places.

It's generally a good idea to read announements as they get made and it usually doesn't take long to that.

It's only usable in a minigame at Catori World, so it won't be competing with other mounts.

Until they decide to make it MTX...

but they do have personal planes, buses, and flying mechanical pigs?

Somebody had a bicycle in Portia. It was leaning against a wall on main street between the two circular "squares".

Personally, I struggled with the sand race at the beginning, to the point that I never went. But as I did the race of the festival, little by little, we manage to learn to control the sledge, we just have to anticipate the turns more in advance. Now I can do it not too bad, I even landed sometimes the first place.
I laughed a lot when you race with Logan and you screw up, he teases you.
I persevered because it’s a good way to earn token. Good luck !

Let me provide some historical context:

The world of Portia and Sandrock was once thriving with advanced technology and luxury living during the Age of Corruption. However, everything changed with the onset of the Day of Calamity, a devastating war that occurred 330 years before the current in-game date. This catastrophic event led to the disappearance of continents, the widespread use of chemical and biological weapons, and a significant decline in the human population, plunging the world into what became known as the Age of Darkness.

During this dark era, most survivors sought refuge underground, facing hardships such as starvation, isolation, and encounters with mutant creatures. Industrial production ceased, and much of the knowledge from the previous era was lost. Despite these challenges, brave individuals known as Ruin Divers ventured into old structures, salvaging usable machinery and earning admiration for their courage. Over time, a new profession emerged known as the Builders, who specialized in restoring and assembling these salvaged machines, eventually integrating with the Ruin Divers' community.

About a century ago, a breakthrough occurred when J. Peach constructed a machine capable of piercing through the thick clouds that had shrouded the world since the Day of Calamity. This event, celebrated as the Day of the Bright Sun, symbolized a new era of hope and marked the beginning of a gradual return to the surface. As the clouds dissipated, people began reestablishing their lives above ground, while some chose to maintain their ties to the underground world.

In summary, the history of Portia and Sandrock reflects a cycle of technological advancement, catastrophic events, and the resilience of humanity. Despite the passage of time and the return to the surface, the tradition of exploring underground ruins and salvaging high-tech machinery continues, deeply ingrained in the world's setting. Therefore, the presence of the car in the game remains consistent with this established narrative.
