[QUOTE="ironfistchamp, post: 47465531, member: 226656"] I'd never really thought about profanity in games. I suppose I am so used to hearing these words that I don't pay attention to them. It some circles (public schools nowadays) swearing is almost like punctuation! I can't imagine it would be very easy to mod the audio files of most games, at least not without breaking the EULA. I suppose doing it to your own game wouldn't matter, but you definitely wouldn't be legally allowed to distribute those modded files, at least that is my understanding. A favourite game of mine is Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion. One of the interesting things in that game is that they use their own (or what I would assume to be their own) swears. Perfectly intense, but nowhere near as offensive as the more common words! I've always been interested in swearing (not because it offends people or makes me look "cool"). The English language, well language in general is incredible. From a spiritual point of view I can understand that profanity is sinful, but what defines profanity. Does it only count for words that are currently offensive, or does it stretch to old words that, in their time were horrible, but now just seem quaint and harmless? What about when words that are offensive now, weren't? So confusing! [/QUOTE]
