What do you think Karl Marx would have to say about raid farms in Minecraft?

Context: In the 1.14 update, villages as a mechanic were overhauled. allong with the addition of tie in content for their new spin off game, Minecraft Dungeons: Pillagers, a halflife combine-like presence of fast moving grey villagers with crossbows, axes and familiar summoning, and witches but they were already in the game but they serve as healers during raids.
At random intervals, pillager patrols spawn near and attempt to kill players, and if the player kills a crossbowman wearing a flag, they recieve a Bad Omen effect (curable with milk, as of 1.21 it's a potion for ease of stacking for the later implemented trial chambers) that triggers a raid when a player comes close to a village, where pillagers attempt to massecre the player along with the villagers, forcing the player to fight waves. When the last wave is cleared the Bad Omen is replaced with Hero Of The Village, granting the player gifts from the villagers.
By keeping villagers in a hard to reach spot, raids can be repeatedly triggered, pillagers can be dropped in a kill chamber, and the player can farm these gifts, as well as drops exclusive to the pillagers. Thus: raid farm.

such and amazing game having to end like this, why and how did this happen what in the actual fuck. whats going on at za/um i heard the devs got fired but this is just necromancy at this point

any of you own a current gen console? Are you disappointed with your console? This gen is so sad to me

The plethora of choices not only story wise but the way you build your character, the exploration and amount of stuff you can colect, how sexually shameless and naughty it is, the emotional bound you make with your companions… I have never felt this way about a game since Dragon Age Origins

The other day I was wearing a t-shirt with funky kong on it and realized I was getting a lot weird looks from black people, which prompted me to google this question. Apparently there have been internet debates about this topic for a long time. I’m starting to think there might be a point but I’m also conflicted since all the supposedly black traits are depicted in a heroic context. Funky Kong just always seemed like a chill dude who could be your friend.

Hi everyone. Fallout addict here. I was modding a bunch of deserts in the Mojave when I came across a bunch of nif files. As I was scrolling through these files and playing around with them in the GECK, I discovered a really neat feature that the devs overlooked in fallout 4.

Basically, a lot of the buildings in new Vegas are actually nifbashed creations off smaller pieces of models. Making buildings in new Vegas is like assembling Lego blocks. You cannot put buildings together in one piece, but you can put together their pieces to create a variety of interesting sets.

Going back to fallout 5, I really hope Bethesda does what Fundog did with the forever winter. I hope they use some sort of NifBashing algorithm to quickly create massive urban environments to have shootouts in. Kind of like what they already did with the dungeon algorithm from daggerfall. If they did, fallout 5 could have massive cities, underground complexes, field fortifications, and outposts that feel more post apocalyptic than the disappointing outposts and levels from 4.

mfw retards are still whining about "trigger warnings" in 2025. the horror genre (including, as it happens, past silent hill games) has a long tradition of using "trigger warnings". but it's more to whet appetite for spooks than legitimately expecting people to be warded off. like, these idiots are literally falling for a gimmick right now. authors like william castle would have loved rubes like them

Someone added a cable car system to new Vegas haha

when games have crazy boob jiggle physics, something that i think is very unnecessary and maybe even a bit eye rolling, i give my character the smallest chest possible, because im just so above that kind of thing….

I now understand why mega cities in fiction are so interesting, why I love darktide and necromunda, why the chalice dungeons from blood borne were so uniquely appealing, why the original doom games always hit different level design wise than the newer instalments, and why I love blame!.

Let’s be honest. There’s nothing more fun in gaming than navigating your way through a massive underground tunnel system where you solve puzzles, walk through impossibly large geofronts, and learn the mysteries of a subterranean structure made of nothing but raw stone and steel. Labyrinths are what people really want out of dungeon crawlers. No one cares about the loot. No one really enters Skyrim’s caves for the armour or weapons. They all want to see the dwarves artifacts and unique locations. They want to explore everything the dungeon offers.

Labyrinths are what make the forever winter fun. The mech trenches wouldn’t stick out as some one of the most fun levels in all of gaming were not for the massive complexes hidden within the trench walls. The original LoZ games are like 99% dungeon crawling and 1% horseback riding until you find Ganon. The entirety of rain worlds map is really just one massive labyrinth.
