View Full Version : Offensive language in Zm12: The Mithra and the Crystal

During a cutscene in Zilart Mission 12: "The Mithra and the Crystal", when Aldo and Zeid are crossing through a gate, Aldo refers to Eald'narche as a "midget".

It has been decades since the word has crossed into the pejorative when referring to people with dwarfism. I was surprised to find the term used in the game script as it is now commonly understood to be offensive and in poor taste.

Please make the necessary script updates.

You have to be trolling.
