Cleared Act 2, died. Made it back to Act 2 boss, who says they composed a new song: "I am Gonna Claw Out Your Eyes and Drown You to Death." Ha ha.
Fight starts, when I notice the music is different. They really did compose that song, and it's now the boss theme.
I <3 this game.

Is Hollywood even trying to go after the under-40 demographic anymore?
