I guess I've come to terms with extra legs on things after so many Discworld novels, but I totally get the inability to take it seriously (and how that might not be all that important to do).
For me, the thing that kind of breaks set is the little sounds and animations when someone misses on an attack. The game is all tactics, blood, gravitas, and finely sculpted penises... and then "Nyah HAH!" Somehow, it reminds me of Snidely Whiplash and his dog from Wacky Races. It's just so far removed from what I would consider a likely response to barely dodging a lethal attack. Then again, I'm likelier to injure myself tripping over my own feet than in ever sustaining a wound from combat, so what the heck do I know?
