Comparable to a babys birth. And no, the unit is fine... its zerg after all. The Queen poops creep tumors, Infestors have a huge sack of shit on their back - what do you expect? | ||

So far, the polls point out that over 1 out of 10 players is actually disgusted by the Swarm Host artwork. I would say that is a pretty high percentage. Now that is the wrong conclusion, 10% says: "I had to stop watching at some point/had to scratch due to itches (197)" That is referring to the disgusting video, not the artwork. If you want answer to how many get itches from the Swarm Host artwork, you have to do a poll for that. | ||

Rather than catering for a minority, think of it as helping a bunch of people out. I don't think you'll complain if blizz comes out with a better unit design to replace the current swarm host.  I personally find all the vids/pics in this thread disgusting... the swarm host itself doesn't seem to bother me much though. | ||

Haven't Blizzard succeeded really well if they make a creature that actually makes you feel disgusted? Tasteless said as much of the infestor. I love these kinds of races, from Zerg to Tyranids. I think catering to a small minority for something trivial as this sets an unnecessary and annoying precedent. | ||

These videos always get to me. I'm sitting in a computer lab watching this with no sound trying to stifle my laughter. My favorite is the pickle one! HAHAHA. But seriously guys, this is probably the most ridiculous thread I have ever read. Blizzard made the swarm host with the artwork it has because that's what they decided should go in their game. | ||

Seriously, the kid who posted this and made the video is nothing but a troll. We were all fine until he exposed us to this fake phobia, which can be boiled down to "Do you find creepy shit creepy? Watch this video of horrible stuff. Do you feel horrible? Well you have this phobia." | ||

The video was rather discusting .. but not because of holes.. well i guess there are phobies for everything. Now the thing is. There where quite a lot of people who where against this unit. This will harm the game. but on the other Hand.. I think this Unit was not designed to be ... cute or nice to watch and it will be burrowed a lot of times and even if not its not like you can see the creature in close up in game .. so i think as long as the Loggin screen isn´t the artwork it should be ok. On the other hand i dont have a phobia and dont know how hard this can get ... so if Blizzard still ahs the time there is also no reason to not to (except the will of Blizzard) | ||

I didn't even see the video. I couldn't get past the first 2 seconds because the "suggested videos" on the side were so revolting that I had to immediately close the window. Zergs in general kind of bother me. Larvae freak me out the most, and since you have to click on that shit all game to make anything, I can't ever play Zerg. Mutas, hydras, and ultras are all okay though. | ||

For people, including me in some cases, seeing this triggers a very intense uneasiness, unlike a general fear, or disgust. | ||
