Tell tale ones aren't the best, but as a fan of the series I'd recommend watching a play through just for the lore bits (particularly in the 1st). But yah, dialing back the toilet humor is just gonna dial back fan engagement, it's what really defined the series early on in a time where you wouldn't find lots of foul language in games.
I don't remember a lot of toilet humor in B1, B2 or BTPS, it was a very childish humor with SOME toilet humor, I think just moving back to the sarcastic/frustrated slightly immature humor of B2 would do wonders for the series.
That's fair, I was kind of pumping in all the immature humor in with toilet humor, I see there's room for distinction there. And yes, B2 was the peak of the series imo.
