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.
