Don't know why people would be offended by that unless they're extremely sensitive. You're fine, Evike. :)
Some of us know the difference between reality and a game.
I hope you're staying safe out there, too! <3

I doubt anyone was extremely upset by it, but I understand the apology as well, it could have easily been perceived as in poor taste, if a person or family member was suffering from viral infection and/or had passed away.
My stepfather for example is a critical care patient already on ventilator/assistance - if he got Covid19 he would essentially instantly die.

Playing a game intended to express an idea is irrelevant when compared to playing a game nominally about something else and encountering that idea.
For example, if I play Animal Crossings, I'm certainly not expecting explicit murder or pornography, but I probably am if I play Danganropa or Honey Pop.

I'd be shocked as heck if Animal Crossings turned murderous lol
But the ichor rats have been here way before covid arrived. They used to plague us the last time I was around 6+ years ago. :shrug:
Either way, agree to disagree, Evike didn't mean any harm.
