Eu detesto ser estraga-prazeres - sobretudo em redes sociais, que costumam eliminar qualquer nuance.
Então, para ser o menos confrontativo possível, direi apenas: a questão é muito mais complicada. E precisamos ter estas complexidades em mente para que ecogames de fato funcionem 🧵

Amazing ecogames in this thread! #sustainability
Of course I'm plugging the crap out of this great little D&D adventure I published. All my federal contracts are now officially terminated.
If D&D isn't your thing, you can also buy an OpenCTD kit and build your own oceanographic instrument. You might need it.

ecogames may educate or raise awareness or grow passion for environmentalism (just as journalism+documentaries do) but that's not going to change much materially. the videogame industry itself is a big emissions producer, embedded in + dependent on the dirty larger tech industry
