Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Suggestions Thoughts about the Death Knight

Don't worry, there's quite a lot of dark humour in some of the things the Death-Knight says <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Great to hear it. What about things kids won't understand but the more mature read in a diffrent way then intended for the kids <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

I don't really know if it fits the thread here but all this talking about humour made me think of a program on the Flemish TV that was superbly hilarious. It was called "Buiten de Zone" ("Out of the Zone" or something in English) where there was small scene where a boy tries different methods to charm a girl. He has read somewhere that girls are often quit fond of a boy who can show his feelings and can express his emotions. So one day he is walking with girl in the park and suddenly he sees a little dead bird on the ground. Then the following happens :

Boy : OH MY GOD, a dead bird!!!! O this is so sad, the ending of life so tragically displayed in front of my eyes, (starts sobbing), this makes me sooooooooooo sad, I'm really hurt, the little birdy died just here all alone without no one to comfort him in his last moments (sobs even harder)...
Girl : (looks sympathetically in the boys eyes), it's so nice to see a boy who can express his feelings, don't be sad... come let me comfort you (holds boy in her arms and pats him on the back)
Boy : You want to go to bed with me? (actually the expression used was a bit more direct, more like "wanna shag?".
Girl : Slap, Whack (runs of with a furious temper).

It was absolutely hilarious and I hope I was able to transfer some of the humor in this post...now imagine :

After a blood fest including a lot of imps, the hero stands next to the body of a dead Imp.

Deadknight : OH MY GOD, a dead imp!!!! O this is so sad, the ending of life so tragically displayed in front of my eyes, (starts sobbing), this makes me sooooooooooo sad, I'm really hurt, the little impy died just here all alone without no one to comfort him in his last moments (sobs even harder)...
Hero : looks sympathetically in the deadknights eyes), it's so nice to see a deadknight who can express his feelings, don't be sad... come let me comfort you (holds deadknight in his arms and pats him on the back)
Deadknight : Wanna shag?

THAT would be hilarious!!! But I think it would compromise the Teen Rating of the game no? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

According to gamespy the ESRB rating is Mature. I don't get why it's mature. It not like you can go buy "koffiekoeken" in the game.

Like in "The Hedgehog Can't Be Buggered At All" or "The Wizard's Staff has a Knob On The End" songs ? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />

A Mature rating?? Djeezes... What the heck? The Deadknight goes stripping halfway the game or so?

ESRB game rating

isn't it 16+ and 18+ i never heard of the 17+ rating...i don't bother about rating anymore aniway...i passed all ratings except maybe being in america where i have to be 21+ for some drinks...or did that change?

Yep in the US you have to be 21 to drink and gamble. Just barbaric if you ask me.

yup...can't even get a decent drink untill then...that's a big minus for me....

wooo go those songs!! personally i liked DK's voice in the demo, and it does indeed fit with a weary, sarcastic guy. And sarcasm is my number 1 humour! lol. I like this guy more and more...
