    that’s what life would be like if we didn’t have to work to survive.

      You have to work to survive in Minecraft, too. Which is to say, all those wonderful things are the product of human labor.

      But in Minecraft, you get to enjoy the surplus of that labor. You don’t have a handful of Whale players draining your reserves with extortionary rents.
