Bleep option?

Now, I have just one little question for Telltale.

WHY DID IT TAKE YOU PEOPLE SO LONG TO TELL US THAT? YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED US ALL FROM WHINING!

Seems like a waste of money to even submit it to the ERSB.

Unless you're a tiny indie company, it's generally a good idea to submit a game to the ESRB. It's kinda unprofessional if you don't.

[BiggerJ]

Hmm. Let me try something.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

Because they hate you. They PMed the rest of us to let us know, though.

Because we already found a secret button on the site that lets us watch the trailer without beeps

May I inquire as to where this button is?

In Bunnyman's imagination.

By the way, I'm not sure if you're allowed to answer this, but could you confirm if all the swearing is going to come from Tycho or not? It'd sound pretty strange hearing Strong Bad drop the F-Bomb...

[Jake]

Only Tycho swears, true to form. Nobody else does, because they don't anywhere else. It would be weird to hear one of the other characters talk like that. I think the characters themselves, and their creators, would both find it weird, with rare exception.

[BiggerJ]

I am expecting comedy to arise from non-swearing characters reacting to Tycho's erudite yet filthy mouth.

Strong Bad: Dude, I will give you the rights to my awesomely popular indie comic book you tell me what those words mean.

Heavy: In my country, we never use such language, you filth-mouthed мудак!
Tycho: ...You just called me an asshole in Russian, didn't you?
Heavy (in shame): ...Yes.
Max: See, kids? Gambling is fun and educational! Impress your friends! Confuse your enemies! Look like an idiot in Spanish class!

[NameOfUser]

Speaking of which, the Heavy could say Russian swears to keep with his character, like Chort, Mudak, etc. Those are the only ones I remember Reznov saying in World at War.

That was hilarious, but I think the bleeping was actually planned to make that funny (however the game is bleeped by default)

Poker night at the inventory however will have the option to turn bleeping off, so I don't think there will be much humour on the fact that a swear is bleeped out, just if you hate swears you can turn it off!

That is another case where bleeps make things more funny.

I will now be sad if a similar exchange doesn't happen.

This, would be awesome to see! True to character and hilarious.

Hey, I've seen the Sam & Max outtake reels. William Kasten swearing in the Max voice is hilarious. But yes, that's probably best kept out of the actual game.

I don't mind that he swears, but will he be rude like in the comics? Just wondering.

What do you mean exactly? Are you referring to some specific thing? We tried to write him true to as much of his personality from the comics that we could fit in the game. So, sometimes he's a little rude, yes.

[Nintomster]

Okay, nothing specific, I just wanted to know if he was only going to swear or if he would be a bit rude as well. I don't mind of course. Like how they talk about the penis, they drew one once, for example.
