And here I was thinking it was because of the golden child in Thief 2.

Fallout 3 comes to mind, since the originals had no qualms about it, but Bethesda decided to change it. As for why a designer would think about it, they obviously have to take all possible player action into account as part of their job.

You're right. You could type entirely in faux-medieval LARP bullshit.

If you say so. Wasn't my intention at least.

Keep it that way, we need less Ren Faire around here.

I have no intrinsic problem with what is described being in the game, it's all in how it's executed.
It could be groan-inducingly awkward and feel like some 12 year old boys designed the area (Fallout 2 suffered from a lot of that) or it could just come across as a matter of fact part of the world around Garrett, or even a good way of conveying a decadence which has infected the city. It's all in how it's done.
We shall see. I do find it unfortunate that they are using real curse words, even if only because I had a warm spot in my heart for the whole "taffer" thing. It also could potentially end up killing suspension of disbelief a bit.
