Censored Blood?

[Hermit]

As some of you may know, inside the War3x.mpq archive there are (were?) other mpq archives with single-letter names that contain textures of water, cliffs, buildings' foundations and Beastmaster's summons. The files inside those mpq archives are used to overwrite the standard textures, depending on the tileset.

There are 19 such mpqs, but 18 tilesets. One archive (T.mpq) doesn't belong to any of the tilesets and contains every model and texture that depicts blood, with the blood recolored from red to black.

I assume this is something similar to the Chinese WoW censorship, but I wasn't able to find any videos of the Chinese version where the blood effects look black.

Does anyone know anything about this?

So, it's better if oil comes out of lifeforms, especially humans? That's some satire.
