Think from a new perspective

Sometimes when i play, i think that this game i spend so much time and thought on is just a virtual world. That all those subs i sent and outposts i captured are just bytes of data on some hard drive in rons basement somewhere in the world. Makes me wonder: What's the meaning of a specialists life? They exist just as a part of a virtual universe meant to bring you satisfaction, happiness, hatred, grief and anxiety when you enter.

Think about this the next time you play.

When no player who has the specialist on his sonar, is online to see the specialist... Does the specialist even exist?

Yes, as a few sets of 1s and 0s on a disk somewhere?

The bacteria or is it enzymes in my stomach has a life of their own even though that life may be different than my own.

Maybe this is all real. On a faraway planet maybe we are controlling real subs with real specialists and real drillers. Maybe it's at the bottom of the ocean. Who knows?

If this is what the game truly is, then I'm a mass murderer :?

You've most likely killed the most drills out of everyone here. 264-ish game, double the next best person (i assuming its me, with 126)

Maybe its blob, who exploded over a million with that martyr in the sandbox game

Technically that was the martyr's fault.
