Profanities in dialogue

[Alkoponen]

I have some dialogue to write and I'm not sure what path to take when it comes to cursing and profanities. So what you guys think about the subject?

 

The mod will be targeted to more mature audience overall. The theme is quite dark with eg. prostitution and such. There are some brute characters that would benefit from cursing.

 

Also is there a change that mod with profanities end up blacklisted. Are there some previous cases?

First dont just use profanity simply to use profanity.

 

Second dont use words no one else in skyrim uses.

 

Do that and you'll be fine.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this? You mean don't break immersion?

Yes, don't break immersion - anglo-saxon swear words are unlikely to be said in a fantasy realm with a nordic theme. You could maybe use some Viking ones, rassragr is very rude.

Good suggestions, thanks.

Thank you Agerweb, that is exactly what I meant.
