    Default Not sure what to think...

    First off, disclaimer. This post is not making fun of a serious issue, and I know STS meant no harm by this. But seriously, the Mage human face is pretty offensive. It looks like a person with Downs Syndrome, which is not funny or cute. I have been close with special needs people all my life, as my mom has taught special needs in schools for about 20 years. As soon as I saw that Mage face, I immediately though of someone with a disability. Again, I know STS did not mean to make it look like this, but many others than me think exactly the same thing. How did this face get approved? And please, do not think this is funny, because making fun of someone with a disability is as low as you can get.

    /end rant.

    no one is making fun of anyone.

    It's a cartoon game with non photo-realistic graphics. I think you're reaching to find offence.

    Like in the Pokemon game black and white where route 4 was destroyed by a meteor got people mad because they thought it resembled the 9-11

    Some people like to find things offensive, it's better to leave those alone they'll leave eventually it's better not to have people who make a big fuss over everything I think every single little thing seem offensive

    Ugly or not, it got you thinking :P Let's be more optimistic, at least there's a "new" face, who knows, maybe the next one will look like Justin Bieber (still not good...shoot!) :P Just play on :P

    If the mage face represents Down Syndrome, wtf does the bird face represent? An achoholic with Elephantitis of the nose?

    The crazy bear face is a crack addict? Come on now sometimes things are only what they are without any "second meaning" or "double entendre". In this case it's a cartoonesque human mage.
