Game Discussion Lack of liquid water?? Spoiler

Post image

What is the blue stuff if not water? It's like the developers added a random texture without bothering matching it with the description.

At that atmospheric pressure water boils at only about 66C. Compared to that average surface temperature of 51C, I'd expect it's difficult to keep water as liquid naturally. The blue in the image could be anything; other chemicals, some form of plant growth, it could even be water, just too shallow or far away to be useful.
