Lovely article.

*Stands and claps*

A wonderful evaluation of the psychology behind games and gamers in general. The world is a messed up place, full of petty politics and injustices. Games are the one escape most of us have. The place where we can go from normal, hum-drum citizens to great heroes, releasing our inner idealists and living out our vision of a better world.

A truly moving article.
