But it's still illegal because it indirectly (or directly, that is debatable) identifies me as a individual.

As I've explained identifying someone as an individual isn't not identifying my name, it's differentiating between people.
And you can differentiate perfectly fine based on characters in a computer game.
One character is played by one person, another character by another person.
