Its about misleading with you fucking PARASITES in an effort to creep you out. Read the post a few above mine, it nailed it perfectly. The entire OP was DESIGNED to skew data and get people to agree with him, and he still BARELY got 10%. math is not your strong suite isn't it. Anyway, since OP is a psy student, you don't know what he's testing for and what data he is truly collecting | ||

And while we're on the topic, its suit. Not suite. And its "is it?" not isn't it. If OP really was a psy student, he wouldn't have told us the reaction he was testing for before posting the video. You NEVER do that, its already made his results invalid. Post video, without ANY pretense, then ask question the question. Its commonly supported that when people "know" what kind of reaction they're supposed to have, they will have that reaction whether they really do or not. | ||

Is the Swarm Host supposed to creep people out? Yes. Does that make the design bad? No of course not, it's hitting it spot on. Personally I also think the way the Swarm Host walks is really cute  (scuttle, scuttle). It reminds me of parasect the pokemon xD | ||

It's kind of disturbing to see the wounded fingers, but wounds are not supposed to look sexy, they are something that needs attention in order to heal properly. The artwork was obviously inspired by nature, DUH, all zerg units are somewhere inspired by nature. Is the Swarm Host supposed to creep people out? Yes. Does that make the design bad? No of course not, it's hitting it spot on. Personally I also think the way the Swarm Host walks is really cute (scuttle, scuttle). It reminds me of parasect the pokemon xDTotally agreed. I have a friend who doesn't play zerg cuz he gets grossed out by the zerg sounds. Does he complain on forums? Nope, he just doesn't play zerg. I play zerg BECAUSE of the design of it's unit and I love it. Playing a "insect" type of race is just how I roll. | ||

And the Queen because it's offending to Republicans. You have people inside those SCV's? Didn't you think about how claustrophobics must feel about it, how rude! I'm happy SC2 doesn't have spider mines, I have aragnofobia and couldn't play SC1 because of that. While we're at it let's include coloring the in-game blood black, along with the removal of smoking references and "vulgar" language. Oh wait... | ||

"isn't it" is perfectly fine, but yes it is indeed suit. Not that its such a grave mistakes or do I really care about Grammar since its not my primary language | ||

I don't have this phobia but I do understand how members who does feel about this design. Financially speaking, Blizzard implementing a design change like this is gonna cost them how much? a couple of hundred dollars? a couple of thousand dollars? or perhaps nothing? Change the design of the Swarm host. | ||

Financially speaking, Blizzard implementing a design change like this is gonna cost them how much? a couple of hundred dollars? a couple of thousand dollars? or perhaps nothing? Change the design of the Swarm host. There are two ways to deal with a phobia: 1) Face it accumulative under professional support (this means, getting rid of the phobia for a ton of cash). 2) Avoid anything that instigates your phobia. This means: don't play the damn game if you don't like it. By the way, creep tumors are almost identical to the back of the Swarm Host. I'm not saying phobia's aren't real or that people should make fun of people who have phobia's, but I am saying that this is melodramatic due to the game already having an aspect which instills this phobia, meaning that people that have it are not playing the game already. So this post is pointless. | ||
