@1: There's no mention of suicidal thoughts or depression. Highly unlikely that happened.

Also it can be a test of one's self... like running a marathon, or climbing Everest, ... heading out into raw Nature develops skills, hones senses dulled by workaday concerns.

The Computer serves as the game's principal antagonist, and fears a number of threats to its 'perfect' society, such as The Outdoors [...].

The heart of darkness is not Alaska, it's the Bronx.

How many people died a violent death in the Alaskan wilderness this year?

How many died a violent death in the Bronx?

Your hyper-socialism helps you forget that the greatest danger to man is man. Forays into nature help us understand our place as individual members of nature.

Because its fun. Pretty much the same reason people do most anything.

This man's attempt to live as part of nature, red in tooth and claw, invited risks we are not well-adapted to withstand.

"Why do we play these games with nature?"

"We" don't. *He* did; some people do. His life, his right. I'm sure he didn't expect the rest of us to go looking for him.

"Leaving our nature and entering all of nature is only madness."

*eyeroll*
