I don’t frequent this community, so please take what I say with a grain of salt, but I’m not seeing many bars/criteria which is what is being requested so I’ll throw in my two cents.

\1. If it is reasonable context or updates the average person would want/need, then it should be allowed.

Examples:

“It’s great the old lady recovered from her fall down the stairs, but unfortunately, a few hours after this article, she fell down again : (”

“She fell down the stairs because the step height was inconsistent, that needs to be fixed ASAP.”

\2. If it is pointed, hostile, or drumming up anger, it should NOT be allowed.

Examples:

“It’s the Radical Escalator Group that weakened stair legislation!”

“She should have been more careful. This is clearly on the old lady.”

\3. If it is dismissive of the good news or tries to make people feel bad for enjoying the good news, it should NOT be allowed.

Examples:

“Sure SHE recovered, but what about the hundreds of stair fall victims who don’t?”

“How does this help anyone?”

“If you don’t check the stairs you use and report bad stairs, this is your fault, and you shouldn’t be celebrating her recovery.”

\4. General negativity that does not needlessly effect others should be allowed.

Examples:

“My grandma fell down the stairs too. Hoping for a recovery”

“My stairs are all messed up too, but sadly I rent, so I can’t fix them…”

“This will likely happen again. We should make sure the needed resources for recovery are available, or the next one might not end so happily.”

I do think the only punishment should be removal and a warning, but I do not mod, so I’ll leave that discussion to the experts.

My mind went to this somewhat relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1172/

I originally had it on, I think, a medium or normal difficulty. It was a while ago.

Like I said, though, it wasn’t that it was easy. I liked the modular difficulty system a lot! The game just felt like a checklist. Pokémon gives you a mechanic (like the HMs of old or modern rideable Pokémon, or the bikes), and you really could play with them for quite some time exploring and experimenting. The only parts of Coromon I felt had that was the item finding app thing and the raft thing. The rest were just “get it, move on, never use it again.”

I will give it that if your only goal is to have a battle with your friends game, Coromon is amazing! But if you want to enjoy the world, maybe not.

Still worth trying for anyone who likes Pokémon for the mechanics.

Coromon is a great attempt with great mechanics and alright visuals, but man, did the pacing just kill it for me. I felt like the entire game was the tutorial, not because it was easy or anything, but because it was the slightly boring do-everything-once-to-learn-it slog that a very well done tutorial is. When I beat the game, I was excited to start playing before I realized it was, actually, seriously, the end.

While I would love that to be the case, I don’t think it is that simple. Java edition, at least, has been experimenting with shader-like features in resource packs for a while now. It could be that Luanti convinced them it needs to be built in and not an extra pack, but I think it is at best parallel ideas, or at worst, Luanti taking inspiration from those shader-like packs and trying to do better not even knowing they are doing the same process as Minecraft.
