Animal Crossing & Genesis 1:28

<p>I can only think of how in <em>Animal Crossing: New Horizons</em> one is rewarded with Nook Plus Miles for chopping down trees, given money (bells) for catching plus selling butterflies, or asked to develop land for a KK Crusin’ concert. In the midst of all of this I can only think about how Animal Crossing contributes to a belief in man’s rightful dominion over the earth. Animal Crossing rewards the player for causing environmental destruction.</p>
