Villains aren't like maple syrup. Can someone please fix this before I bust a brain vein? I've bugged this since day one.

(The "ahold" is also wrong, but viscious is even more wrongier.)

Oh, and this is for mish 4 of the LRSF, when you get to Swan's cutscene.

I'm just amazed that it's gone on for this long without being addressed. ;( It's a typo. No gameplay is harmed. No balances are unbalanced. No costumes have been nerfed. But seriously, GIVE ME the text files and I'll spellcheck every single one of them. It's just embarrassing.

...if they were coy about it and had Malaise say, "Viscious? They're slow and sweet? My kinda criminals. Shouldn't you wear more than feathers? You look cold."... then I'd laugh for a month straight.

That word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Perhaps you were thinking of viscous instead.

Although it's clear, even without context, that the word the writer's apparently didn't know how to spell is vicious. I'd drop in an image of the wrestler sometimes known as Sid Vicious (and no, not the one where you see his leg snap during a match) to emphasize the spelling, or an image of the punk rock bassist of the same name but I'm afraid it might not make it past the moderation team.

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
