The Oregon Trail
SCORE: 61
I had an opportunity to live stream The Oregon Trail on our YouTube
channel. I decided to play this game one time. That is something we call
an one shot here at Family Friendly Gaming. I suspected I would not want
to play The Oregon Trail again after playing it for an hour or more. Boy
was I right about that. The Oregon Trail has plenty of major issues with
it. I will get into that in just a minute.
The Oregon Trail immediately starts out with woke radical far left
ideology. Is this part of the hundreds of millions of dollars of
American tax dollars the Biden Administration gave to video game
companies for woke DEI policies? I do not know the answer to that
question. I do find it suspicious that this video game would include
that right at the beginning. Modern day Native Americans were consulted
on The Oregon Trail. Ancestors of pioneers were not consulted. What is
the majority of this game about? Oh yeah the pioneers.
The graphics in The Oregon Trail are really bad. Why not really update
the graphics to modern day standards? Why is that so hard. There are
multiple difficulty settings in The Oregon Trail. The Oregon Trail is
extremely difficult even on the easiest setting. One mistake and your
trip to Oregon is over. Why is that? River crossings will sweep away
many of your supplies which are needed to stay healthy.
Even with the “help” at the beginning it is nearly impossible to keep
all four of the pioneers good in all four of their statuses. Take for
example we get two things of clothing, and we have four people. We get
three medicine and a couple of things to repair the wagon. We go through
them really fast. There are not many opportunities to make money in The
Oregon Trail either. So we run out really fast.
I liked the music in The Oregon Trail until after my live stream I had
six copyrights on my live stream. These music companies decided they
should get all of the money from my work. It took half a day to get
those six copyrights removed so I could get paid for my own hard work.
There are gross things like characters throwing up, breaking bones and
more. The Oregon Trail provides players all kinds of decisions. No
matter what you do things go bad over and over again in The Oregon
Trail. I did not have fun playing this game.
