What video games shaped human society like pic related?

The book series "Black Athena", despite being pretty accurate to history, makes people bleed out of their eyes and ears with rage.

Imagine being a brainlet that takes state model presented by Socrates at face value.

Half-Life 2. I know the zoomers on this board have no fucking clue what I'm talking about but basically half-life was the first game to have the vidya equivalent to "cinematography". Scripted events sequenced to show the player something interesting, like the famous pick up the can scene, but a lot of other small stuff too. Each new mechanic and enemy is showed to the player in subtle sort of world building way which set the bedrock upon which games like Halo and Call of duty would build on. Before the original HL games were just corridor shooters. Not bad, just different. HL2 was a mediocre (not bad) shooter with a shit ton of scripted sequences used in moderation to create a world that makes the player think about what they're looking at. Its why we have "the sad dad forumula" today. Games like nu-GoW and the last of us are the modern evolution of that thread. The way that zoomers would have you think, is that this is the ONLY way to make a game. Now scripted sequences are the core experience of the game, not just sprinkled around to enhance an already stimulating experience. Now the concept of an arcade-type game that just has solid mechanics with a fun theme is seen as archaic and simple. Movie games came from HL2, and movie games are the dominant force in media, if you dont count sport games.

Plato thought that since art imitates physical things, which in turn imitate the Forms, art is always a copy of a copy, and leads us even further from truth and toward illusion.

At most it has shaped aesthetics on other videogames, and if you even want to push it forward aesthetics in media. No thoughts from half life 2 are being analized, or it's mechanics being now followed by everyone as a gospel for doing daily chores, probaboly not even by few people. As I said before videogames have not shaped society as literature ever did, hell probably not even films have done that beyond a little propaganda.

You're not old enough to remember the uplift it caused in the gaming sphere. I don't even have to argue with you, because it was known fact at the time that everyone and their grandma wanted to be like HL2, just like how every single action game after DMC was trying to emulate it. Go home zoomer, the grown ups are talking.

MEMES JACK!

So is this you trying to argue that the Greeks DO have a connection to americans? Kek.

A I said, influenced other videogames, not society as a whole, also probably I am older than you and that's why I an see videogames for what they are, entertainment.

World of Warcraft represents the first full realization of digital technology's potential to act as a proxy for the social and creative/productive parts of life that are alienated by capitalism in the working class

Unironically Star Wars Battlefront 2 (EA version) because of how the countries reacted to the controversies.

You might want to turn on the news. White men are covering up the Epstein scandal by shooting innocent people.

MK Ultra is one hell of a drug

When are you going to realize whites are unironically the problem? Jews are white and are pinning you against black people for nearly no reason.

>black gangster kills a bunch of gangsters
>somehow this is bad
>white pedospawn executes a false flag killing innocents even whites
>"fucking niggers"
Wake the fuck up, you goyim. You're under an illusion as well.

American republic was based off Romans

Simcity.

In his book Self-Organization and the City, Juval Portugali describes how, in the past sixty years, our conceptualization of cities has shifted from a portrayal as isolated, stable and transparent systems, into open, self-organizing and complex systems, and how the role of the planner has turned from that of an engineer who masters these systems into that of, at best, simply observers and participants. Though Portugali's vision of the role of the planner might be too polemic, what is indeed an issue is that planners are in need of new tools that will enable them to be more process orientated, more geared towards communication, and encouraging of the involvement of multiple stakeholders, etc. Computer simulation models meet these requirements, but although they have indeed been adopted in planning practice, they have not become an indispensable piece of equipment. A very different story emerges from the gaming industry where, for more than twenty years, computer games have continued to attract millions of players, and have even entered classrooms and planning practices. Not only do these games look increasingly realistic but the behaviour of the characters within them has grown ever closer to resembling actual behaviour, to the extent that some commentators have even started to propose that planners should turn into gamers. Does this make sense, or is it still a bridge too far? In the search for an answer, this paper will critically analyse two computer games: SimCity, which is a classic strategy game, and Second Life, an increasingly popular social virtual world. I will make a number of suggestions as to how these games could be upgraded into planning simulation models.
