Nobody said anything about that except you. You shouldn't joke about that.

yes, costs some gold, ~16k for me, displays a show for anyone on amicus, and you get an island token. you can do this once a day (oh forgot to use timey whimey watch trinket)

You don't know what trolling is? Well, then read a book about it, mate.

When wasn't there a time when a lot of people lost their heads? Must be before the French Revolution when a lot of Europeans beheaded themselves. Oh no, must be before the shogun, ninja and samurai era when it was supposedly done by Samurai, which this piece of equipment is a clear reference to. Well, maybe the middle ages? Oh, no, folklore told us even then, people believed one of the methods to kill witches was by beheading. Same for the early rumours of the vampires in central and eastern europe.

And guess what, I find it offensive, that princesses can kill whales ... At a time, when whales are nearly extinct!

Even your connection to the IS-Terrorists is sadly not really at the "worst time". It would have been when CNE introduced the gear as the western world learned about the first beheadings by ISIS. Oh, hold on. The game wasn't even online when this started?

So, to summarize, no connection between an obvious samurai-influenced character and his gear. Not the worst time to introduce one, but one of the finest examples of trolling.
Oh well, what to do with the rage now? Guess I try to kill the bad witch in Emerald City. She looks like my mother in law.

Just one question Andreas, and please take a few hours to think it over before you answer. If your brother was beheaded in Iraq and the video made available worldwide through the net, how would you feel seeing this "Katana of decapitation" on your kids'computer screen?

the overly-sensitive people of the internet have found their way here? ugh.

Erika, I have to ignore Elpenor who are doing such black propaganda and death threat.

Decaptitation is such a strong word.

This seems like a valid historical reference within the context of this character and this game.

Any gamer knows that Japanese video games have been doing this for decades.
