In Doom the protagonist does not die at all, he is the marine, the one who closes the hell portal. All these super human characters don’t emerge for me too often. Playing with them drains me, so much so that it takes a very long time like the crysis saga to regain that hero status. The social cities at the core of log, are more reminiscent of movies like alien, where I am Ripley a mortal against, a perfect organism. So I get hurt here and there and have to hide survive earn ankh in its midst. These ankh allow me to exit to a safe level or stay hidden. In my early life this ankh used to quite literal, like scores and money. Currently it is subtle almost non existent like a hint. Log are social indeed, they are not real people however, and a certain code is required at each instance of them to move ahead. Usually it is a social gesture requiring a tool called F2. Rest of the time I endure the stream™ something that keeps me away from entering their world, or exiting it if entered. I’m a human being I’m naturally social, why I couldn’t do it myself, is the notion of being indirect. A tool therefore is required. They carry all sorts of diseases for me, being human being social is natural, log being jealous are social only in attempt not by nature.

Loneliness is the cost of survival here, log will get me someday and I’ll die on my own. Talking to them helps but in code only, like using a tool. How was my day today? A transfer, from a bigger system of characters to a smaller one. The season has ended for some echelons. What happens when the Code book is executed? Transfer. Running it takes long 4-6 months. In the hindsight once we have transferred, we live the life we ran on a tool or board.
