Guess I'll take the bait. [quote]I really think that this use of vocabulary is historically and culturally very inappropriate. Just like the game current does not contain any "[url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url]" word (or maybe I don't know of its existence yet, but if it does, I don't approve of using that word either), I believe "kamikaze" to be same.[/quote] Actually the Cabal certainly have some [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] similarities. Their whole empire is built upon military conquest and general oppression of people groups. They have giant draping banners indicating their empire on all their bases, they have tons of propoganda... And so on. Like most militaries do that have an imperialist bent. [quote]It is not a synonym for self-destruct,[/quote] That's good because the craft is crashing itself into a target while destroying itself in the process, which isn't activating a self-destruct protocol. Your interpretation is off. [quote]it is an act of human degradation, one of many war crimes and crime against humanity done by a nation. And you cannot say that it was used as the meaning "the divine wind that neutralized invasion to Japan", because there is no such context in "giant kamikaze spaceship".[/quote] Then you can't say giant space rhinoes either because the Cabal aren't related to the rhinocerous. I suppose the conclusion is removing analogies from language altogether. [quote]And yes, there are other games that use the words that I'm saying are inappropriate. While I do not personally approve them, they are usually games that have such context, that either the game contains such factions, the world is cruel and crude, and/or the characters are foul-mouthed or sinister or crazy.[/quote] Not sure what point there was in saying any of this. [quote]From what I have played, I had the impression that the world Bungie is building in Destiny, and the character of Ana Bray does not fall under any of those above. Yes, Destiny world is post-apocalypse facing another apocalypse soon to come. But despite all feuds and bloodshed during the dark age, humanity of Destiny regrouped under noble causes and guardians stood to protect humanity. It was Bungie that separated light bearers to guardians, and Ana is a guardian. I really cannot understand Ana Bray using "kamikaze". Why would she use that word? There is a difference between carefree, casual personality to inconsiderate personality. I believed Ana Bray to be former, and I hope that Bungie will rethink about what vocabulary they are using to build and describe their characters and world.[/quote] So I guess ever making mention of someone or something on a "crusade" is also very very offensive because of people 500 years ago or thereabouts that have suffered from the various cruades practiced by various nations?
