Default Since they introducted ale....

Shouldn't they change the warning on the box? The ESRB that rates the game has T for Teen indicating that this game has violence and only violence. Other games that I know of where there are taverns and such will indicate "Use of Alcohol" on the ESRB rating.

Could Anet get in trouble for not listing the use of alcohol in their game with the recent addition of dwarven ale into the game?

Who is going to care about the booze??

"My 5 year old can't slay racist dwarves and then loot their corpses if there is alcohol in the game."

This is no different from alcohol in commercials, as long as you don't see the bottle/mug touch the lips, it's legal. That's odd way of consumption though, double clicking. If everything required two taps to be engulphed..... Oh what a world that would be

Wait, does this mean they could add graphic eviscerations and virtual debauchery next week without taking a rating hit?

How is a really, really small screenshot supposed to make me feel sad?

What is it with people trying to make me sad with pictures? That Christian guy was relentless.

You know, funny story related to this topic of ESRB ratings and such:

I was just told by a friend who was at the mall that a kid was kicked out of GameStop for playing Resident Evil 4 on one of those booth matchines for not having any parents with him.

I dunno why my opinion is on this story... I mean, okay, maybe the kid shouldn't have been playing it (he was young) but then why the hell would they set up such a violent game in a store thats prone to having kids in it? And of course, would kicking the kid out of the store REALLY be nessicary?

Also, it's not like they card you when you play these games. And since when are the ESRB ratings an enforcement? I remember hearing something about Wallmart and the games it sells, but I never recall reading that games were RESTRICTED by rating.
