Not reporting is bourgeois

Isn't this game inherently about settler colonialism? You have this vast resource rich wild world and then you destroy its landscape strip its resources murder the animals enslave the natives (villagers) and genocide those who fight back (illagers)

not when I play I just live amongst the villagers and build iron golems and public works projects for them. Eventually I start building rail to the next village and start the process all over again.

Guardians of the declining Third World cities, fighting against colonialism, can only 'kill a wither at a visibly noticeable rate within enclosed spaces.'

>You have this vast resource rich wild world

>then you destroy its landscape

You alter your surroundings to your wish, this the aestetics of the player vs aestetics of the nature, I'd say that the agency is unimportant as the action stays same.

>strip its resources

Who else is going to use those diamonds, it exclusively have use value for the player

>murder the animals

Yeah, a practice of obtaining food.

Nah, but it's liberal and crusoe-pilled. If you don't view the game from the meta-narrative autismblox angle, you're the one-man labor force from the founding myth of capitalism.

It's actually an allegory for Mahayan Buddhism. Also it is a sequal to Rain World.

No. Why would it be? If you’re after the resources then there’s no point. Cobblestone is good for like 90% of the stuff you’ll build in game anyways, and iron is great for everything else. All the actually important and rare minerals are underground away from villages, and there’s well more than enough land to occupy away from those settlements. If you play like a colonist, then that’s your fault.

I mean, iron golem farms are basically an allegory to forcing natives in the mines, and don't even get me started on the villager """trading hall""" that shit is just gross on a whole another level

The way you handle piglins are also super problematic

No, Minecraft is based and Belt and Road-pilled.

You literally don’t have to use iron golems from villages and actually stand to gain more iron from acquiring it yourself through strip mining than taking golems yourself from other settlements. Most villagers sell materials that take forever to get the emeralds for anyways if you haven’t built any farms. The fact that these realities exist is an indirect reference to how the capitalist mode of production literally forces the most invasive and destructive methods of acquiring wealth on a planet with the resources necessary to help everyone.

That's why I play with Create, Hexerei and Origins. Becomes a factory builder game where you can be a little woodland critter that smokes weed.
