Default GWEN has subliminal messages!

Charr: THERE IS NO GOD! THERE IS NO GOD!

Heh, I laughed.



Also, at the start of GWEN, you are learning about The Great Destroyer and you get a quest called The Beginning of the End. Coincidentally, both are tracks on NIN's newest album.

Quote:
A subliminal message is a signal or message embedded in another object, designed to pass below the normal limits of perception. These messages are indiscernible by the conscious mind, but allegedly affect the subconscious or deeper mind.
The Charr yelling it out doesn't quite qualify as "indiscernible to the conscious mind".

Perhaps you meant "subversive"?

~sigh~

Another person who doesn't know how to use words properly.

To expand a vocabulary, it's a good idea to find the definition for the word you want to use first.

My post took it completely out of context though. If you were paying attention during the cutscene, you would know they meant the Charr had no god. Does that still not count as a subliminal message?

Clord. You fail. The don't want to replace their false gods with anything. They do not want any sort of godly entity to govern their lives and fate. They believe that belief in 'gods' corrupted their people, and they seem to be very stubborn about having any other higher power rule them.

Not in the slightest. It's just as you said: taking it out of context.

On the other hand, this is very interesting:

Too bad With Teeth (save tracks 10-13) and Year Zero (save 13-16) blew goats.
