{abridged from God of War III, SCE Santa Monica Studio, 2010}

IDE: You challenge me, mortal? A god of software engineering?

Seer: A true developer does not hide, IDE. Leave the UI, and face me!

Seer: You have disrespected software engineering for the last time, Seer.

[Seer rips the IDE out of its textual context onto a nearby ledge and throws it against a wall]

IDE: emacs and vi should have kept you where you belonged. No matter how many text editors fall, there will always be another to stand against you.

Seer: They will fall as well.

IDE: The death of software engineering means the death of us all.

Seer: Then prepare for your death, IDE.
