Honestly I don't think it's that big a deal, considering that it wasn't meant to be in the final code anyway (I know I tend to use rather lurid names in programs I'm testing out, especially if it's slow going with the coding). It's embarrassing for the company to have accidentally published it, though - it was almost certainly nothing more than a dumb in-office joke, and wasn't trying to be all "ooh, offensively artistic/artistically offensive!"
Oh, and whining about political correctness is dumb; be honest about it and just complain that you don't think it's okay for people to get annoyed when you act like a prick. (I know I do!)
@peter pham Well, maybe the little Warp character guy has a very delicately balanced tonicity that matches that of the average human's blood, and the barrier that separates his inner juices from the outside world allows free passage of water, meaning that if he touches freshwater he rapidly takes on watery mass until he bursts... Or, in the case of highly salty water, loses water until he shrivels.
Or something. I mean honestly, I'm just pulling stuff out of the air here.
Awesome! Are the faces all still terribly ugly? Well, yeah... but now it's because they're utterly grimbrutaltastic, instead of, y'know, just plain ugly. Now, if only the writing matches the atmosphere the default faces are giving off...
@radioactivez0r Oh, it's not as bad as everyone says! There's even a level where you get to go for a happy little swim, and then an invisible friend comes to join you! :)
Man, I'm LOVING the new looks for the races. Frickin' velociraptors shooting fireballs, yes please. And the Dark Elves look even better than they did in Morrowind - here's to hoping they bring back the old voice actors for them.
