Strange request but I would like to deepen my analysis of the game and one aspect I'd like to tackle is structural mechanics of oppression, its radical means of dismantlement and historical comparisons from communist and anarchist movements (preferably small communes). Zapatistas for example
I would also like resources to create comparisons to slavery in America through economics, social movement and moral decay so I can contrast it with the ways social progress is motivated through change in production that the protagonist and his commune put into effect.
To top it off, this would have to be somewhat digestible in a way that even (neo)liberal leftists can understand, which means it would have to go against idpol and optics (focusing on the work being problematic instead of the work itself), as well as a complete disregard or ignorance of historical materialism.
I'm also deeply uneducated in the subject so I need to deepen my vocabulary as I just wing it from common sense and my own set of beliefs.
Also if someone wants to argue the game with me, I'd be glad to do so.

Let's play some Minecraft on our /int/ server:
hub.dev-urandom.eu:25565 (version: 1.20.2)

Wiki with more information: http://dev-urandom.eu/
Overview map: dev-urandom.eu:8123
IRC: irc.dev-urandom.eu - channels: #chat (ingame chat, currently disconnected), #int
Pirate-friendly client: https://tlauncher.org/en/

Basic commands:
/spawn - Teleports you to the spawn.
/home - Teleports you to your home (set with /sethome or by sleeping in a bed).
/lb tb - Provides a melonblock that can show block changes.
/co i - Lets you use coreprotect inspection in whichever block you hold

Don't grief and don't be an asshole (obviously). Basically, you can build anywhere, although there are some limitations. There is enough space for everyone! You can make your clan and engage in Nation Autism. Don't get discouraged by the autism of the server, things will get easier for you later. Also, mods, admins and other players may help you.

I love it when video games have a free market of some kind. It’s really enjoyable to exploit the economy in some way and to watch it crash and burn after a few years.

Recently I tried to revisit some games I used to play, the game had a player based market system. In few years the entire economy was ruined and huge inflation happened where items grew in prices and newer players lost the ability to even participate since everything became overpriced and the stunted player base was not growing thus creating a rift between older player who have been playing for a long time and new player who either came back or just started and thus have nothing to offer the older players and thus cannot really participate in the economy in any meaningful way.

Do you enjoy having a free market in games?

Free Cities is a porn game that has some sort of market from what I remember.

the shitty amazon MMO New World launched with a local auction house system where you had to travel to each town in order to interact with its AH, which shared no listings with other AHs; many resources only spawned in certain regions and you had a limited inventory carrying capacity, so there was always money to be made buying resources for cheap from gathering hub towns and transporting them to crafting hubs

this feature was of course "improved" in a couple months with a global AH where items magically appear wherever you buy them, completely homogenizing the economy and making it so you can teleport anywhere. huge increase in "quality of life"! fuck the mouth breathers that design and play these games today

heard the story, really funny how free market always ends up sabotaging or destroying an online game. I have yet to see a mmo that didn’t end up suffering due to unrestricted trade, even tough I personally find free market to be fun.

One time I was playing on a minecraft server back in 2013, and the server had a lite economy, (you can buy stuff and sell, I don't remember if you could trade).
One day, I was walking through the jungle to get cocoa beans for a light farm, and I found a jungle temple. I lotted the temple, and then also mined up 3 64-stacks of mossy cobblestone. I ran out of space, so I thought it'd be nice to tell people in the server to check out the temple.
10 people teleported to me and started mining everything else, and I sold all the mossy cobblestone and bought a stack of diamonds with it, and after that moment mossy cobblestone went down by 50%, literally caused inflation babyyyyyy

The server, which was called "inspy", is gone. Admins got bored and blew up the whole world, and took it offline.

Oh god free cities. I remember just cheating in that game cause of how boring the whole economy system felt to me. If I’m jerking off I want to focus on the porn not dealing with a stupid capitalist economy

An indie dev pointed out that you get basically no coverage unless you pay youtubers to make videos about your game (didn't even make a moral judgement about it, only brought up every youtuber asked them for money) and they got shat on by everyone in the replies, oh how the times change. I thought I was going crazy reading the replies, not many years ago everyone would agree that paying for reviews is a shitty thing to do. Collusion is good now I guess.

What a weird thing to complain about. All a number scale is going to tell you is how much this reviewer liked the game, which you have to interpret anyway through the lens of what that reviewer's tastes are. It's better to not give a score and just explain your opinion so that the audience can judge from your description/reaction whether they'd want to play the game. That's a lot more useful than a number.

It's also something you can criticize Yahtzee for, since a lot of the time he just riffs on the game since his brand became about making jokes instead of talking about whether it's good or bad (and people have said that over the years).

I don't mind not having a number score, many reviewers I enjoy watching don't use one, like mathewmatosis and runningshine.
The problem is that there is so little to work off of, you just go to other reviewers to get an idea.

It's an old review, but a better example was his super paper mario review, which was just a fucking trainwreck to put it lightly.

For >>31863
The game is highly praised on its story.
Also, if that is a quality of the game that you enjoyed, maybe add it to your review to be complete?
It's already bad enough he skips multiplayers, but that was ridiculous.

<All of gaming? rpgs? All of media? Lol.
>Doesn't go into any meaningful depth of the game or story
<He gives little pieces like the nerd chapter and it being a platformer
>It takes a minute to get to the actual review since he spends the first minute shitting on jrpgs for no deep reason
<I'm fine if he doesn't like them, it just that when half his reviews are jokes or very specific personal taste, then it's hard to gauge the game's quality.
The only thing saving the review is that: he doesn't give spoilers, (still makes the review unsatisfying); and a summary of going, "overall, if you like the previous games, then play it".

I wouldn't mind if he didn't like the game, or even hate it, the issue is that the review is so lacking that I wouldn't be surprised if he just skimmed a lets play to do the review.
