Whoa, whoa, whoa. Animal Crossing may have looked kiddy, but it’s really a very difficult and adult game representing the struggle of the common class against the entrenched mercantile-industrial complex and ineffective government leadership. Everything you do is part of the struggle against the oppressor, from the leaving of revolutionary literature on the town message board, to establishing a strong underground community amongst the populace and trying to instigate open revolt against Tom Nook’s shadow regime.

It’s just really hard…I can get my fellow town members to gather near Nookington’s carrying axes and wearing my “Down With Nook” shirts, but I can’t get them to actually torch the place yet.

/needs to make some “Down With Nook” shirts…
