@d_feldman Personal opinion. I don't want to talk to a NPC who can just talk forever about... nothing. A game is about a story and an experience. If someone didn't craft the story or experience to move it forward, I don't want to just talk to some random forever about random stuff.

@tferriss Make sure you get a system that will work if/when the power goes out. Surprisingly, some rely on a controller that once the power dies, can't use the power coming from the cells. So just ask to make sure 'this will power my home when the power goes out?' and how etc.
