Mordhau petition calls for Team Fortress 2’s medieval chat filter

Hark! Away, fighting kobolds! Thine jests and japes in yonder land of Mordhau mightst be about to change...eth. To translate, a petition on Reddit calling to add an Early Modern English-themed chat filter from Team Fortress 2 means that you might soon get to put the medieval in your Mordhau mouthing-off. Sitting at 1.2k upvotes, the petition on Mordhau’s subreddit offers a glimpse into what an even more immersive rendition of marauding might look like, middle-ages style. Already characterful for in-game laughter and deep, throaty variations of ‘Argh!’ mid-swordplay, Mordhau seems a viable platform for testing out some choice, era-appropriate (sort of) phraseology in the text chat between players. The Team Fortress chat filter referenced by the petition works by swapping out key words, phrases, and punctuation for Ye Olde English ‘equivalents’ when players chat to each other. For example, ‘lol’ becomes ‘lollery’, ‘groin’ becomes ‘nadchakles’, and ‘haha’ can become ‘and there was much guffawing!’. Excitingly, even the humble exclamation mark can swap out for ‘verily, I say!’.
