Completely disagree. The word rape has a very clear meaning (to rape someone) and the only reason someone would use it in a gameplay setting is when trying to create parallels to a rape, it is not possible to use rape without that connotation, and hence there is no justification to use it. Also, the victim of a rape is always a person, therefore we always have your second case, where the subject of the rape is a person, the player that is being talked about.
Look up the definition of the word rape.
