Both of the examples you give are Id - and to be honest, I feel like this was always more of an Id thing than it was an overall trend

Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri would vocalise “Please don’t go. The drones will miss you. They look up to you” when you go to quit.

Yeah that’s very much id’s old 90’s machismo. This is the company that invented the word “gibbitude” in Ultimate Doom’s flavor text xD
