"I must say that I'm not familiar with the MW2, but I would really, really wish that they didn't take it down.

I love the freedom for religions to express however they wish, but I'm uncertain what sort of precedent this gives when there's an increasing amount of extreme opinions bearing more weight in how things are being portrayed. Game-wise, it's pretty innocuous.

But I am very hesitant about private companies bending over backwards to appease a minority group when it doesn't actually hurt them or lead to them being hurt. In short, I agree with your comment at the end, that someone will always be offended.

Always. So why are we picking now?"

"I'd like to qualify the value by saying that a lot of work goes into even the most rudimentary wood block prints. There's the conception, and then there's planning, leveling, and managing colours. 40-135 is a very good range in terms of price."
