Check this out. This is extracted from ID Software's finger. I think
they may be risking getting Christian Fundamentalists on their tail.
Check the part out about breaking a deal, then sacrificing part of the
person's body, who you broke the deal with, to a demon. I was laughing
like hell when I read this! Looks like it is going to be awesome.
Yeah, so I have a dark sense of humor and there is at least one very
badly constructed and fucked up sentence in this message, or more :).

This will not be out until sometime next summer.
John now has a simple (slow) engine running. It uses converted
DOOM maps and runs them with flats for textures. It looks REALLY
cool.
Ok, imagine this. You have a health thing and you don't need it.
You meet someone in the game who has a nice weapon but is really
low on health. You guys decide to exchange items. You don't really
trust this guy so you bring along a friend and tell him to hide out
somewhere with a bead on the other guy's head. You meet somewhere
in the middle of a field and face off. You drop your health, he drops
his weapon and you both strafe over the object of your desire. You
start to back away (not turning your back on him) and suddenly decide
you're going to whack this guy before he gets a chance to use that
health. You move towards him and draw back with your hammer. He notices
this and starts to duck, but it's too late. You smash him in the head
and watch him fly down to the ground, landing on his side. You smash
his still body a few more times and cause him to explode! Now you and
your friend pick up all of the items your dead friend left on the
ground. As you are walking off you pick up his severed head and put
it in a bag. That will come in useful later... when you need something
to sacrifice to a demon.
--- END HERE
This is awesome don't you just love that, "You smash him in the head
and watch him fly down to the ground, landing on his side. You smash
his still body a few more times and cause him to explode!" And of
course you definitely should save all the goodies, "As you are walking
off you pick up his severed head and put it in a bag. That will come in
useful later... when you need something to sacrifice to a demon.
Blahahahaa this is great stuff!
