If someone talks to you about lice there's a strong possibility your head will get itchy and you'll scratch yourself. Same if you see the photo of a rash or stuff like this. Meh, I know I don't get itchy I just feel disgusting, and panic, and need to look away. I also have had it for a long time, and been unaware that anyone feels the same way, so it's not just "human empathy" | ||

So in other words nothing can ever be changed because of player feedback because we can't know how many people mean what they say. Great philosophy. | ||

The Swarm thing in HotS is fine i know its not real so it doesn't bother me. Yes, I agree with this. Totally. Seeing this toad-thing was disgusting because it actually is disgusting, it's not any phobia(to me), but the swarm host is just a stupid animation so it doesn't bother me at all. Also, at people making fun of this: There are all sorts of crazy phobies, don't be a dick just because you're lucky enough to don't have this issue. Some people lose their consciousness over little dogs. | ||

however i can't help but feel that looking at a hole in an apple that was created by a worm is a lot more disgusting to me than looking at the cool effect of the swarm hosts's back | ||

Why do you have to be a dick and even act like you were on 4chan? | ||

It's not a philosophy, it's a fact. And nothing about what he said suggests that you can't change things based on player feedback. This just doesn't suffice. | ||

Because there isn't a connection. I'm pretty sure most people got itchy from that video either by empathy or because of the insect in it (most people check their skin for insects, because it's evolutionary the correct thing to do - not getting bitten by mosquito's, lice or wasps etc.) The video and the OP are misleading a lot of people by attaching itchyness to irrational fear, which are two completely different things. I'm pretty sure there are as many people affraid of balloons as there are people affraid of holes, but the video fucks up the poll's numbers, making it an invalid and propagandistic reflection of the poster's intentions . | ||

God knows why holes bother me. I need help. I guess i can take some solace in the fact that others are just as messed up as i am. I'm fine with this though. It's the Zerg. They're meant to be creepy as hell. But creepy for everyone, not nutjobs like me. edit: i don't get the itchy feeling, i just feel uncomfortable. So dumb lol | ||

People are getting overworked over nothing. You won't ever notice the problem in a real game unless you specifically look, so I don't see the problem. | ||

No what he is refering to is that TL isnt enough of a representative sample of the whole sc2 community. and therefore its not enough to actually make them redesign the unit. | ||
