i studied for about 4 years in video game design. sorry but i take offense to this. have you seen a game design doc? it's practically a museum of art. all the reference and work and design that goes into a game. you have no idea.
we had to study 3d animation, 2d animation, sculpture, set design, cinematography. modeling texturing painting anatomy life drawing, everything you can possibly imagine or not. for that matter.
when you look at it from the perspective of gaming is about killing sure you take a very generalist approach to someone who doesn't game themselves. it's not about killing it's about having fun. it doesn't matter if that game is about killing or not, what matters is that it's fun.
same thing with wow. it requires a strength of character to be able to hold your own and some people react to it with rage and anger because they were never taught good manners.
you know ignorant people used to say the same thing about music, about whatever it is that was "new" in society. weren't the beatles considered satanic at some point. wasn't witchcraft shunned and people burned at the stake because people were so ignorant in their judgements as to whether what was good or bad.
now wiccans are regarded as acceptable and are equated to spiritualists, one in the same.
I think it is wise not to judge something especially when you don't partake in it. it's so easy to act high and mighty, when u haven't experienced these things for yourself and then to come to a conclusion that it's not video games, or movies that make a society, it's the person viewing them. it's the individual. this is the problem with light. you can go infinitely in any direction. that is why love is my guide.
i'm not sure if many of you understand what light is in reality.
light needs love to direct itself i say this all the time. light is infinite, but so is love.. love is infinite.
light is one half of infinity which is equally as infinite as intelligent infinity
love is equally as infinite as light, which is equally as infinite as intelligent infinity.
it doesn't make 2 things finite, it makes 2 things parts of the whole and when u only look at things from one perspective, you are promoting intolerance, fear, and division.
