The fact alone suggests there something wrong with you, mate. I'm sorry about personal tragedies that may have happened to you but stop constructing absurd theories.
If you can't get rid of these connotations, stop playing the game but at the same time you might wanna stop watching TV, stop reading books, stop talking to people and so on. Because, you know, someone might mention sultans accidentally. -_-'

Yup, I already uninstalled. And yep, it's a very beautiful, cheesy game and I have been a fan of the units ever since I found it on Kongregate. It reminded me of better times. Norse content seemed like the icing on the cake.

And I'm not the one who referenced its content to terrorism, the in game quest did. Broke my heart.

If fun, campy games can no longer be innocent things that you can even let a child play, without fear of any connotations then they are no longer games designed with heart. Whatever tragedies I have suffered, it just shows that they are there. If game designers don't realize they have the power to improve someone's life just by making it better or giving them a world they don't live in, they are just not dreaming big enough.

It's like War Amps for children, where they lose a limb, and they make a mechanical one to replace the use of the old one. It will never be like the old one, but it serves its purpose. Games have the same power to treat trauma. It gives them a world they no longer have. And why not? It's not like it serves anyone to have that connotation there. If you can improve someone's life by changing it, then it's heartless to argue against it. Whether you think there's something wrong with them or not.
