    A: Lets see! One. Two. Three! The answer is three.

    Don't know why games can't just stand or fall on their own merit. Trailer looks ok.
    There's no real argument just one moron who doesn't know that it's been like that since the first game and thinks gender matters when one of them is a lich.

    The Warmastered edition of it is only 3.99 on steam it's really good but it's a different type of game than Darksiders 2 it's more like Zelda.

    In Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, War is female and the politically correct term they use is "Apocalyptic Horsepersons."

    I thought the English language dictates masculine form for plural words.

    English language doesn't dictate masculine or feminine form, it's just a habit to use "man" as a short version of "person," either as a hangover from more sexist times when most people worth talking about were assumed to be men, or because it's short for "human."

    Yeah, Good Omens is parodying PC culture in that respect.

    Please dont tell me its another game happening at the same time as DS1...

    Also what the hell is it with those HUGE eyes. Or is it just because of the contrast between them and the warpaint?

    Can you give examples because most words in English are genderless?

    As much as I love War (and hearing Illidans voice coming out of him....)

    I really like how each game is a different Horseman. Maybe there will be a 5th game (assuming 4th will be Strife) where you can use all 4 interchangeably (assuming this one does well enough to warrant them continuing the series after it).

    You really should. It is basically the best non Zelda franchise Zelda title around.
    There is a thin line between not knowing and not caring, and I like to think that I walk that line every day.

    Strunk and White, ELEMENTS OF STYLE, section V ‘Misused Expressions’:

    THEY. A common inaccuracy is the use of the plural pronoun when the antecedent is a distributive expression such as each, each one, everybody, every one, many a man, which, though implying more than one person, requires the pronoun to be in the singular. Similar to this, but with even less justification, is the use of the plural pronoun with the antecedent anybody, any one, somebody, some one, the intention being either to avoid the awkward “he or she,” or to avoid committing oneself to either. Some bashful speakers even say, “A friend of mine told me that they, etc.”

    Use he with all the above words, unless the antecedent is or must be feminine.

    oh and this happens after the first one because they said that the Seven Seals are broken.

    Well it's nice to know that 100 years ago "they" wasn't accepted as a singular, gender-neutral pronoun. However the point made by Clone ("plural words use masculine form") seem to differ from the point you're making ("use masculine pronouns to avoid plurals.")
