It isn't like it has struck me with insomnia and I spend the twilight hours in a darkened room, teary eyed as I replay SotC and whimper words like "I can't believe this is happening...mwaa, bwaaa".
So what if I care about a video game? So what if I get slightly annoyed when people take something I enjoy from one medium and butcher it on another? If the thing finds this alien and beyond comprehension, tough titties. It hardly strikes me as irratic or abnormal behaviour.
People have done this for years when they announce screen adaptations of novels. The thing swaggers in all like "lol nerds, I am calling you a nerd, therefore I am not, booya bitchs" then shits all over everything and feels pleased with itself. Thinking that if it was human, it would be the James Dean of the internet. Did you take your shades off to make your posts? The thing's claim to be masculine doesn't fool anyone.
I think me and Mal differ in that it will never spoil my enjoyment of the game, never. It just annoys me when they do this, and I made a thread about it, as I happen to know things like this annoy some other people here too. Added to the fact that the decision itself to make this into a film strikes me as a very bad and risky one, which puzzles me more than anything.
If it doesn't bother you, great. Don't come on and tell me there is an objective response and try to tell me I am wrong, stupid and an asshole for getting annoyed. "YOU RESPOND TO THINGS IN THE MANNER I DEEM FIT, ALL ELSE IS FOLLY, FAGETS!!!, BUT FIRST I SHALL BLOW THIS OUT OF PROPORTION", that is what you sound like.
