Viscous' strange writing direction.

[u/Trashy-Guy]

Has anybody else noticed that Viscous seems overtly childish in the new voice lines?

I'm not sure if it's the direction that the voice actor has been given, the lack of sound edits that the older lines had (from what I've heard, the current lines aren't yet finished edit-wise), the writing or all of it as a whole.

Viscous's writing direction has shifted from the friendly yet determined emissary of The Deep, willing to put the goal of defeating The Adversary before everything else. (e. g. him saying that The Djinn's problems are less serious than The Deep's.)... To a second grader. It's a fun line, one of many the update added, but it often feels like an outlier in an otherwise solid character.

Viscous is an emissary, a political figure of the Deep with a message and ambition first, and a goo ball that studies the customs of the surface, second, not a baby.

i think it's just the voice direction not the line itself, the voice recordings have already been confirmed to be messed up in direction and mixing wise so they'll fix it at some point

It’s odd that a sea anemone who knows what blood is, who explicitly tells Mina she can’t drink his blood (because he has no blood), and who in a conversation with drifter remarks that drinking blood must make it hard to make friends, would confuse blood on drifter with finger paint. Would denizens of the deep even know what finger paint is??

Drifter hands color is red, he thinks Drifter using paint to color his hand, not Blood. Drifter is the only "human" with red hands, Apollo entire body is red for example, Drifter is not.
