The cheeks also say "left cheek" and "right cheek" lmao
EDIT: Does the neck say "Larian"?
EDIT: the full neck is "Larian Studios", amazing

I want to be so fucking angry but that's just clever.
There's a bug report somewhere I bet.
"Face tattoo puzzle regression: only default text shows"
They kind of broke the fourth wall with Karlach. It'd be epic if there's an NPC out there that bursts out laughing when they see those tattoos.
Same energy
You motherfucker. I was sat here for a minute like "Wait... whats the joke? I guess the image is loading... Oh you bastard."
Note, that's not the joke, wikia images are just weird. For whatever reason the ?cb=whatever bit causes hotlinking to fail. Stripping that leads to an image of a ...bouncer? from the show Gravity Falls with face tattoos reading "head" and "chin" https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gravityfalls/images/3/35/S1e3_works_for_me.png
I was gonna post the same thing!
Clever. Less chance for …. Cultural misunderstandings in some markets.
True. I just had this whole image in my head for one of my characters. He had those tattoos and got them when he started worshipping Bhaal. Meanwhile they're just like... infernal IKEA instructions. Dunno whether to shake the hand of someone at Larian or slap them.
Imagine doing some elaborate deal with Raphael for the promise of greater power through understanding of infernal runes only to get this fucking translation done.
I would die laughing.
Definitely fist bump
Don't have any tattoos, myself, but now I kinda want to have "shoulder" runes on my shoulder. In case I ever forget.
You wake up, Durge style, and look around. Don't remember your name. No idea what you are. All you know is that you've been marked by infernal runes, engraved into your skin.
You search high and low and after much effort, and months of travel, you eventually stumble across a demon who is willing to trade a favor. In exchange for you making him a sandwich (with the crusts cut off), he will translate these hellish symbols.
"Shoulder."
"W... what?"
"It means shoulder."
"What the hells does that mean?"
"I don't know. I'm not the one who got the tattoo. I'm an infernal being not a psychic."
"But... why the fuck would I get tattoo of shoulder? It makes no sense!"
"In case you forgot?"
"Bruh. If I forget what my fucking limbs are called I'm pretty sure I have other matters that are going to be more pressing."
"Mmmike mmmwat?"
"Mother didn't teach you any manners?"
(Devil just chews, staring you in the eyes)
"Oh yeah. Of course. Well, wanna try that again?"
(big swallow) "What other matters would be more pressing than discovering the names of your various body parts?"
"Like wh... forget it. Okay. Well now what am I suppose to do."
"I dunno. Did you add mustard to this?"
"Yeah, it's a little extra zing. I mean I revolved my whole new personality around discovering this. I thought it would lead me to the secrets of my existence. Of who I was. Of what I went through. Of why I ended up here in the first place!"
"Huh. Well you should have made a deal for that."
"Fucking what."
"Well dude, I'm a devil. While I may not be a psychic, I can hook you up with one pretty easily."
"... Oh my sweet and sour Bahamut, what do you want?"
"Got any chips?"
I've always kind of wanted one that says something like "I don't know, I don't speak Japanese" in Japanese
It doesn't have to mean anything as long as it looks cool. I'm gonna get me a tattoo that says "Japanese tattoo" in Japanese, would probably look like this: 日本のタトゥー
I have none, not don't desire a tattoo, however if pressed I'd do a Lorem Ipsum tattoo because, I'd like to meet people that got the joke.
Top tier trolling. Simply marvelous.
Peak immersion
At least it doesn't say Damaged, or HaHaHaHa.
Missed opportunity for a “Drink your Ovaltine” reference.
"A crummy commercial?"
🔝 this side up 🔝
that's what the tramp stamp says.
That's brilliant! If you been following Larian since Divine Divinity, this is classic Larian lol
foolish mortals think this is some kind of game.. those labels allow the demons to take possession of you.. that's the point of writing the words in their language.. they can now use that face like a puppet..
succ
I think I finally know what tattoo I want.
"Left arm"
What do you think he says when people ask him what they mean?
"I'm not sure but it's a step up from everyone asking me about numbers." ~Mason
metal as hell
that's hilarious
I translated this as:
"burt is a slave driver and is going bald too"
This is how I name characters and places when I write
Dare someone to get these tattoos irl
