We play Halo, and all video games, as it is just an escape from reality. That is the beauty of video games. If you aren't truly happy with yourself, or are just having a bad day, you take a break from real life and become a new you. In this case, you become a super soldier, with the fate of not just the whole world, but the fate of the human race resting on your shoulders. You have to pass insurmountable odds and save the day. If you die, oh well, you can just start over. There’s another break from reality, the ability to start over. No body knows you online, and you can paint a whole different image for yourself than what you really are.
But that’s just the Eggnog rambling. Take it as you will and have a Merry Christmas tomorrow if you celebrate it.
