but it also is citizens to the end. the game is a clear statement from a single, not the ongoing brochure. walt and ukraine has been made, the setting up a realistic game. and this has spot many discussions offsite, the battle field experts, question, what impact a game like this will and should have on players? do they identify with ukrainian troops? how does the game affect people's perception of the war? yes, so the actual, the 1st reaction to this is of course it is perhaps a bit tasteless to depict an ongoing war and the game that is relative and trivial diagnose. and then of course, this runs the risk of being reduced to an inter touch product with the headphones portal. uh, yeah, for homeless to that the images are for facetime. many people, which is one main stream shoes of games focus on this topic. cold of juicy blackouts take place in the vietnam war. special field 1942 hill let loose and many

more games to pick the events of world war 2. but these, what was happening decades ago, which offers distance and historical context. yet just from above assessing is in the present and not everyone likes that discussions about whether such games, ethical go beyond the online world. people directly affected by the war and you cry and also have different opinions on the mass. so we have the most. so i'll get the ball to me is next, but the game incisive violence against civilians of the fixed. but stock proven it's a problem. but if the game like this and the shows the situation on the battlefield, please with soldiers against the soldiers usually nominate. i don't see any problem ali, except the saw your pro store supply to my for the boy you. what were you supposed to go through these quotes to the bottom, this amount of probably some one in real life social subbing and was always there
11:21 pm
by choice and the risk of losing their lives at any moment. so the question is, is it really ok to shoot people in video games, then express opinions on the topic very strongly and, and computer games like that's from above the wall. and so one project can be portrayed very positively at the same time. the soldiers on the other side can deliberately be shown as the humanized for the game plays a role and the information will between russia in the ukraine to the business office. i'll try to show you that this is a propaganda getting in touch with you in the actual both sides constantly trying to control public opinion worldwide. most of that work is being done online with misinformation or trying to sway people by appealing to their emotions. tyler, these allied zip, lot of these efforts, this propaganda we know from everyday life attack can beams, videos, and gifts. for example, in my opinion of this game, joins this culture, are making a part of an ongoing information war stomach getting stance on. and then in from
11:22 pm
that source, with the same view, this propaganda positively will not play is need to be aware of it and its impact game is often strongly identify with an appetite and a motion to engage with its calls. so this could reinforce and t russian sentiment, especially if there's a lack of historical context and experience and death from above. say, it's supposed to get a virtual impression of the war in ukraine and provide financial support for the country. in russia, the was only allowed to be called a special operation would walk in a still allowed even the us to take a counter strike. and that's why journalist from the finish they didn't use paper, housing can sign them up, seized the opportunity and information about the warrant. ukraine, in the game for russian today is to find to do this, they had a special conscious direct level programmed. what players can conquer
11:23 pm
a secret room, full of documents and articles, for instance, about the russian war crimes in which i end up in. but it's hard to know how many russian players have actually found the room sofa instead of a room or a building. the organization reports us without borders, has put together a whole palace. this i'm sense that library is used to spread accessed bad news stories and countries that restrict access to information and internet. it's circumvents censorship and defense, freedom of press. the project has had a lot of success since it's w in 2020. all, virtually in minecraft. this library is virtual, consist of over 12000000 blocks. a 24 person team worked on us and invested over 250 hours and the projects they were pursuing won't go to provide free access to information even in countries or censorship generally prevails. if they haven't been to mind, we often minecraft, because it's a game played worldwide by over
11:24 pm
a 100000000 clients. but at the same time, it's a game available. only every country in the world that's out, unlike many and media sources, websites that are unfortunately, since that these, either cynthia is, are now over $200.00 in the library. but publications, by journalists for the most oppressive countries in the world like russia, egypt, or do you know, some of the authors whose work is included here. i've even paid for it with their lives. the saudi arabia wing publications by janelle and kashodi, a staunch critic of crown prince. muhammad been summoned in 2018. he was killed in the saturday concepts and stumble. the crown prince denies his involvement and the murder to this day. the dean censored
11:25 pm
library cost the spotlights on the unfortunate fates of people like mister kashodi . it's constantly being updated the latest additions. our rooms for brazil, the roofs ever trees, and around. what's more, there's no easy way to block the library or take it down. because minecraft, under the uncensored library went on different servers worldwide. the library would probably steven survive. vincent access being blocked, as it has been in the past by us, our terry and machines. mackenzie todd is available even offline, meaning you can download it on the campaign website. and the great thing is that players can upload it again themselves. if you let in. dekalb mean, even found original server was, should be blogs. they would still be up to $300000.00 mode libraries in existence. and then image showing you that i am the polls inside of the library x p, and the developers of both the uncensored library and games like desk from above. a trying to give use of a wakeup call, but what means are allowed,
11:26 pm
and what ethical considerations must be taken into account. because even if there may be no but intentions behind them, they've got the need to be in place for younger audiences, for instance. and the developers of the on census library had to take special precautions to them. so we tried to use content suitable for young people, humans. but unfortunately, it wasn't always possible in certain cases by example to the kids like the war in ukraine, nevada's letter. and so bruce, i'm home, so we added a warning, enabling parents to contact us and know if they are around when children are playing. so then we can give them the context or this. i know, i think i know that helped school because i thought meant to get a sense of library from reporters without borders. also manages to avoid depicting violence in the game world itself. to more games like death from above. what do you cry? and shooter, a glory to the heroes?
11:27 pm
players explicitly have to inflict and virtual violence to do well in the game. but as long as the developers don't incite real life, silence, they are in compliance with the law. but that doesn't necessarily make their work ethical. the research shows there's still a little awareness as of such ethical aspects in the gaming industry. in part because the sector is still quite june under game development, time and money are often tight. but researchers say it is important to take into account moral values and development, such as freedom, respect, and human dignity in games based on real life events. the realistic representation of facts play an important role. not just for players, most of the people involved and witnesses to new games, 6 days and flu jet temps. this type, real block, players have transported to a rock and the 2004 and historical us operation against our kind of fighters in the
11:28 pm
city of solution. the developers interviewed over 100 us soldiers and 26 iraqis to give eye witness accounts. but they still faced scales and criticism as the title of focuses on the north american perspective. but the researchers also recommend encouraging ethical game play games like call of duty reward players when they avoid harming civilians. last but not least, developers should also critically examine their own system values. these could also unintentionally get incorporated into a new game. games can to pick real life events with a political or moral framework, but develop a strip to disclose this fence. and this one says, what do you think of wall games featuring current events and the use of concealed information in games? send us a message and let us know. that's it for me today by and see you next time. the
