Mine is a bit of a combination. I always loved the Fallout series growing up, so naturally I've played them all, the main antagonist (could be considered a protagonist or even just a neutral character) in the New Vegas DLC, Lonesome Road, really played a bit close to home for me in a philosophical sense. He called himself Ulysses after Ulysses S. Grant, due to the fact that he thought that America could come back from the nuclear war it had endured, and that the two main factions, the New California Republic, and Caesar's Legion, shouldn't be separate as they were, and that both of them were nothing compared to what America could be, not in the sense of America returning to what it once was, but becoming something better than the Pre-War commonwealth that it had become in the days leading up to the war. I also like to read a lot of old novels and stories, and Homer has always been one of my favorites, so taking two of my favorite characters and putting them together just seemed to be very appealing to me. Loving the C&C series, specifically the Tiberium Universe, I always kind of felt like GDI and Nod would be better off as one single mega-power, instead of two individual warring super-powers, though I do have more of a devotion to Nod than I do GDI. The reasons for that I won't go into because I don't feel like starting any kind of argument based off of any real life circumstances.
