I agree, but add that I think it's not only hubris and ego, it's also tying your identity to a certain group (ex: a football team) that makes u protect that group like a wolf in a wolf pack.

to me this looks like the most generic "Hollywood trailer" which is unfortunate but understandable.

TV shows/movies based on games are usually just a cash grab that play on people's love of the source material, but maybe in wrong we'll see.
