​@@Mrlighthouse1000yeah, they basically up and said capitalism was behind all the pollution and corruption. Ironic because one of the main polluters nowadays is a communist country. Such a tunnel visioned way of thinking. The problem is not capitalism, it would end up being the exact same in any other system just with different people getting power and thus corrupted just like the capitalist billionaire. The problem is human nature. We are not blank slates. We are naturally selfish creatures that under the right conditions can all become monsters. Tyrants will always form if you give anyone too much power, and in this case, its the billionaires. Before we had modern capitalism it was the tyrant king. And in the big government alternatives, communism and socialism, it is the government.

I love how in the end, even though Kril got his shell back he realizes that he can never go back to the life he once lived because he's not that person anymore, so he leaves his shell to the shelless hermit crab, and continues to adventure without it.

Something I like a lot about the game is krill’s loss of innocence and growing anger. It’s a character arc that’s very unique, and is quite fitting for a souls game.

Given how Aggro Crab’s last game, Going Under, also had such heavy and obvious anti capitalist themes in it, I shouldn’t be shocked One Crab’s Treasure should also be heavily anti capitalist.

“The absolute worst thing you can do is nothing” except that runs entirely counter to the actions of Krill in this game. At two points in this game Krill acts on anger and makes things significantly worse for those around him. The second of which has literal apocalyptic implications for the residents of New Carcinia.

Thanks for summing up the plot and making the messages the game wanted to convey relatively easy to understand. It was clear from the get-go that environmentalism and critique on capitalism were the main themes of this game's story, but what really stuck out for me personally was its take on violence. When that snail at the beginning started attacking me, I immediately reacted by swinging back only to realize a few seconds later that I could have just decided to run away. Instead, I killed a non-zombified being with human-like (or, in this case, crab-like) intelligence, and to rub in the meaninglessness of my impulsive behavior, the shell it left was too small for me to wear, meaning that I didn't even benefit from my brutal action. I just sat there for a whole minute and then decided not to let this death go to waste by promising to the dead snail that from this point on until the end of the game I would be very careful about where I'd swing my fork at and avoid violence wherever possible, a promise I was reminded of by Nemma when she pointed out the horrific nature of fighting against other sea-creatures when talking to her in the Expired Grove. I just finished the game for the first time, but technically speaking, I didn't finish it at all. When the prompt for attacking the pawn owner appeared, I was awestruck. I was instantly reminded of my promise, searched the whole city area for another way of ending the game, of just leaving the shell behind and letting it be. You could argue I did exactly what the game's credit scene said was the worst thing to do: nothing. But at least from my point of view, I did something: I decided against violence. I sat there for another minute, took a last look at the pawn owner and my shell, said "Fuck it!" ... and turned off my console. I honestly couldn't have wished for a more phenomenal ending to my already overly-phenomenal experience with this game. Thank you so much, Aggro Crab 🦀

@@NotFrickingNick eh fair enough it's just too simplistic for my taste, if you have to shove social commentary in fiction at least make it good, if not it's more of an annoyance

so the story is "capitalism bad cuz pollution" pfffff... literally the tragedy of the commons can only be solved trought property rights (thats why the soviet union drained up the aral sea), and "regulations" wont solve most problems regarding externalities, as those willing to pollute will do it even under the threat of enviromental fines if it makes profit, but not under harsher punishment for fellonies against third party properties and theres also the point of incentives: if you are the ceo of a lumber company, you have a lot of incentives to replant any tree you chop if the forest is your property to have a long term profit, but if youre an ilegal lumberjack on the amazon, you have 0 incentive to do it because the trees belong to the government, and the government has way less incentive to go after you than you to give up your way of life

Huh ? If anything, lumberjack companies have an incentive to not replant, because doing so is a waste of money when their are still other forests standing, and that would make them fall behind the concurrence. Capitalism will never be able to respond to climate change because the seeking of near term profit is fundamentally misaligned with the pursuit of sustainability. And no, private ownership does not solve the tragedy of the commons, we still very much suffer from it. I really don't know where you got that idea.

​@@benjaminlefebvre1866 yes, there are other forests that are NOT their property, so they cant do anything about them... and even if the owners are willing to sell, its still cheaper to replant, so yes, private property solves the tragedy of the commons, you cant do whatever you please to X place if its not your property, and if it is, you have an incentive to mantain it and private bussinesses usually seek long term profit, which is completely aligned with sustainability, and not every single private owner of a terrain would be a bussiness, theres also conservationists or common people living in those terrains

what a commie game

18:56 Bullshxt, I can say the same about a socialist society, having family members whose been through communism, that a socialist society incentivizes greed and hurting others for your gains because thats exactly what happened and why they had to drop that system. But that isn't true. Greed comes from the human heart, and it will exist in any system. Yet greed is a factor that pushes humanity to advance. Without the first greedy guy who wanted to have a more comfortable experience, there wouldn't be the push to invent something that makes his life easier.

Imagine making a video like this and blatantly admitting you cheated at the game. Batman couldnt get that out of me.

“A video like this.” Sir this is a “story explained” video hastily thrown together to put out before The Bigger Channels™️ could come suck up all the views, not an epic boss fight compilation. Hope this helps!

bruh, this went from some good game review and a climate change message to commie gogalie shlop. Do you think communism or socialism is the solution instead of just punishing companies for climate change?

The game nor this video advocate for communism or socialism. In fact it’s not even mentioned in this video! I literally state that the game’s thesis is that there’s nothing we can do to substantially change the trajectory of our planet so you should just be a good person, try to do whatever you can, and not be complacent seeing ecosystems and lives get ruined. Hope this helps!
