We’re going to through the “enshittification” as a society. There was the Great Recession, the DotCom Bust, the Great Inflation, etc.

I can see that, the main difference is the Hunt is PvPvE, Lethal Company is strictly PvE. A smaller difference is that Lethal Company has good dose of humour.
The game has such a gameplay loop, get items, survive, and then leave. What makes such a simple gameplay loop work is that game naturally generates moments, moments like having a teammate running out of the dark, screaming about monsters. A monster getting you while you wander through some steam.
Such a weird coincidence, I am listening to the Apocalypse Players, A Christmas Inheritance and they referenced 2 Kings 2 23-24. Not even in an off hand manner, it’s key plot point in the story.

“Congratulations Jeff Bezos, you donated $1.3 billion to various labor organizations.” “Congratulations Richard Branson, you donated $1.21 billion to climate change initiatives.” “Congratulations Warren Buffet, you donated $1.14 billion to support low income people.”
Knowing where their money is going to support society in general will fucking kill them. Each of these shit bags all think that they are needed for civilization. Let’s watch them put that delusion to the test on an island penal colony that gets bombarded with artillery shells every once and awhile.
