Discussion History VideoGame / SpecOpsTheLine

While Walt Williams may have something regarding the titular \\\"Line\\\", he had also say that their intention was not to make people feel bad about playing First-Person Shooter games(even though that\\\'s what some people are reacting to it as), but he did say that the developer\\\'s intention is creating the game is to have people think about the reasons why they plays FPS games; from here, it\\\'s easily make the implication when drawing the developer\\\'s intentions to their natural conclusion with regarding using violence as a means to become a hero. So unless Mr. Williams and the developers come out and say that they\\\'re not condemning violence/violent games, it\\\'s a bit self-denying to make think that the game doesn\\\'t condemn violence/violent games when the aesop runs so much of violence with the desire to be a hero together, an aesop that I strongly disagree with.

Edit: Turns out that in the interview with the author of Killing is Harmless, Walt Williams does express actual hatred towards FPS players, and has expressed if he ever works on another game, he would want to make into what\\\'s essentially a power fantasy for pacifists, so yes, I do believe that he is very anti-violent and makes it clear in Spec Ops: The Line. So yes, I do think the aesop is still broken in that regard.
