There's really nothing wrong with swearing if used properly, and not using it in something like Battlestar Galactica is incredibly stupid. Sure it would've been nice and cheesy in the '80s, but for the pretentious modern version that wants to be taken seriously it just came across as plain stupid to me.Well I watched the original so it always made sense to me. Also they aint on earth so different societys developed. When they say it with the right passion behind it, it really does sound like a swear.
Yeah, that's really my problem with it. It just felt so forced and like the actors didn't believe in it. I need to get the second season, though, as it started to get better and I probably would've ended up liking it.
Holy Cow! Why in the world would anyone curse? Heavens what a bunch of bolonie. Cursing in videogames is so gosh darn ridiculous as heavy language doesn't add any impact to the setting, atmosphere, or even plot. I've had it up to here with these developers shinanigans. It's pure pootinanny! Sheesh!

I find myself blowing away a zombie with a shotgun in HOTD Overkill and repeating Detective Washington's favourite line "Mother-f******"
When they especially piss me off that is.
