I cannot stand when people take a game extremely literally, as if everything in it is a necessity, and that superiority and the like are such tomes to real life adequacy as to usurp the fact the games are made for enjoyment and play (with the occasional addition of an educational element, but I digress), not for some fictitious doctrine stricken and wrought with fallible strictness.
When it goes from an object of enjoyment to an object of "political" dominance and "military" superiority, I begin to find video games so much less enjoyable, and in lieu, it becomes draining; as if it were a workplace interrupting relaxation. And it becomes even less enjoyable when this very concept robs you of time to spend with the one you love, and turns a fun time into that being rent asunder.
Video games are meant to be sources of relief and enjoyment, not taken so seriously as to be treated like religion. Bah, and to offer discordance (despite its mature execution) when one wishes to assist and accommodate in hopes of being allowed to spend time with the one they love, whom is involved in said "organization," and thus disallow it is utter inanity that truly, in my eyes, separates the free and the willingly enslaved.
Translation: Rebecca (Shuishe/Khaega, my girlfriend) intended to ditch me all day Saturday to go on Halo Reach with her clan, the Sangheili Eminence Fleet, without even asking my opinion. We talked about that, and eventually came to a resolution, and happily showed each other love and apology (as neither of us gave favorable responses to becalming things.) I tried to work out a compromise with one of the leaders, due to my previous involvement with them, I was dismissed as one to cause riff raff despite my lack of disrespect for the clan. My girl is still working on persuasion, but the initial response from the noted leader was infuriating enough, regardless.
