Console Monster: Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise Review

Console Monster writes: "Gardening seemed like a strange basis for a game, though thankfully, Rare managed to pull it off fantastically in 2006 with their release of Viva Piñata. Two years on and the candy-filled animals return for the true sequel (discounting Viva Piñata: Party Animals). This time round the story behind Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise is more understandable and clearly visible: Professor Pester and the sour Piñatas have wiped the Piñata database clean of all Piñata records. It's the player's job to prevent further disruption and to recover the records.

Controlling the familiar cursor seen in the previous title, the game starts players off in a garden with the basics, including a few plants and paving. Similarly to the previous title, Leafos is once again on hand to provide players with a tutorial and Seedos also returns for you to hit ask for seeds. The more advanced gardener will be pleased to know there is an option to skip the tutorial, though it can prove to be helpful; specially with the new features..."

Viva Pinata places a brutal lens on late-stage capitalism

When Rare developed Viva Piñata it was a cute game for the Xbox 360 to rival Pokémon. It shipped, wholesome and lurid, with every new 360 for basically the console's whole lifespan and spawned a co-operative play sequel, Trouble In Paradise.

I'm confused, is this review a joke? Did this imbecile just write a tediously long extremely boring review just to somehow, in her warped brain, link it to capitalism in order to say capitalism is evil? Or did I read that entire review wrong? Can someone clear this up for me?

It’s from an insufferable sjw, which isn’t that far off from a Marxist.

This is actually quite sad in actuality. This content writer could be using their time to actually fighting for liberation and the well-being for all in the living breathing world that is our streets, forests and communities.

In stead they choose to do it virtually in the most extreme capitalistic way (an environment where intangibility commands a high price for profit) with a boss begging mentality. How does this apply to those that want to be free from being exploited?

This isn't Marxism or even beyond left, it's a narrative of someone that is enjoying life as an exploiter and a sympathizer to all those that exploit.

The writer is a part of the problem.

Women make about ~80% of consumer purchases so, if anything, women benefit from the system and thus are the problem.

This was a funny read. The comments in here made it better, too.

Maybe, just maybe, some articles are meant to be entertaining and nothing more.
