So...from a neutral observer....

This is kind of a hypocritical argument?

You're telling them to "grow up" and not put any worth into digital video game items, but people could also "grow up" and not care if the same digital video game item is simply named differently from the original item?

Both sides are caring about a digital item, just in different ways. If people need to "grow up" and not put any worth into video game items then why does it matter if the item is named replica or not?

You're making a rather unfounded assumption. I don't care about the item at all. I don't care if I get it in any fashion or not. I do, however, care about the attitude that is reflected in being upset by this development, as it's one that I think harms game development when developers allow it to influence them. Perhaps some people care about the item, but most of the posts I see arguing against the OP likewise seem to be more concerned with the attitude than the item per se.

For what it's worth, issues in life are rarely perfectly mirrored dichotomies. If you reflexively seek to understand an issue as a conflict between two sides that are equal, but opposite, you will generally fail to understand much of anything.
