One of the reasons why I encouraged my kids to play Minecraft was because of this issue....yes, I know that you need to kill skeletons, .but my theory was, self-defense is fine. (and sure if you are psychotic/evil you can kill villagers).
I felt that Minecraft was a microcosm of christian morals...you have free will to be evil, but you get much further by not killing and instead focusing on productive building.
💯 agree.

I'm sorta in shock at the current state of gaming (or maybe I should say the 2010 state of gaming, because I no longer pay attention to it)
Imagine if I released a game, where the action was to run around a virtual world and torture and kill dogs.....people would be (rightly) outraged.
However, replace the dogs with humans and people think its "fun".
I can't think of any other word for that but 'demonic'.

This made me think about Banished. It’s a community building game that has no violent elements beyond hunting, fishing, and ranching; all of which are optional.
IMO, Banished is one of the more underrated games.
