In Response To: Allow me... (chef) : The blood was removed from Oni purely for design reasons: it is true that it : didn't look that good when it was in the game, but we could have fixed : that. : The main reason for the flashes was because we wanted to find a way to : communicate character health levels without cluttering up the on-screen : display with a bunch of ugly health-bar type thingies. : So that's where the flashes come in: they serve a critical role in : communicating in-game information to the player. The typical doubting thomas sees everything as a malevolent gesture. So of course, folks see the T rating and extrapolate the worst possible situation that casts Bungie as the bunch of sellouts that they imagine them to be. I've seen it demonstrated over and over again. It's completely bizzarre. How many times has Matt and others from Bungie said that the most important thing is the game itself? The story that grabs you and doesn't let you go until it's finished? Ahh, I'm babbling... - MC
