Is there a trope about how in video games with factions, the factions all seem to have a hive mind about the player character or other people? I don't know if it's counted under Artificial Atmospheric Actions or not, and I can't find anything on there, nor do I think it would fit without derailing it.
Basically, it's like how in some games (The Elder Scrolls, Deus ex, STALKER, some MMORP Gs) have a "reputation" gauge or a factional-association, wherein people who've never met you somehow are automatically hostile to you, hate your guts, or worship the ground you walk on. If any change is made to your reputation within the faction, random peeps associated with them who've never met the player character are now hostile to you.
