Blood and Gore -optional-

Surinen

Would you like to see blood in the game? Blood on your weapons, on corpses and blood pools? Would you like to see rolling heads, cut heads opening their mouths and eyes. Would you like to decapitate your enemies, to cause partially severe their heads, leaving them hanging on the thin layer of skin? Would you like to cut their limbs and see how legless enemy collapse? Would you like to pierce holes in their bodies. Would you like to cut your enemy tails? Would you like to see your bolts stuck in their eye sockets. Would you like to impale your enemies (templar's javeline)? Would you like(...) ?

We cannot use mods in this game and this is why I'm suggesting it. Totally optional, on/off Blood and Gore for those who adore grotesque levels of grittiness, over the top blood streams and flesh tearing unrealistic spectacles

Where's the option for people who don't care so much about seeing blood and guts that they make an overly biased poll about it?

nowhere to be found. poll creator does not think that there are people who trully don't care. refraining from participation in the poll should serve it well itself (if you trully, really don't care), but then you would not be able to say that you 'don't care'.

Does the poll creator always speak in the third person?

And believe it or not, many people (weak, strong and otherwise) don't really care whether or not blood is present in their games. I have found that people who have never experienced violence in real life tend to be more excited about the prospect of lots and lots of blood in their video games, but I suppose I should just be happy for them and their sheltered lives.

What gives you the right to comment (or assume) you know anything about the poll creators life ! ? Let alone question the way they speak, maybe English isn't his/her first language ?
Yes.. I'll agree the poll choice was limited, but maybe that would suggest that you keep your comments 'on topic' and not get personal with them (although that's nothing new for you is it)

sometimes.

I do not believe it. Such is a minde of a human, it aligns itself with all matters presented before it. Of course, I believe that people may and may not put much desire in something's existence but the basic 'yes' and 'no' is always present (unless medical conditions prevent it). You must have an opinion on it. well, I have found pack of sour candies in my very old school bag. yes, I suppose that you should.

Age of Conan did this right.

Its an adult game, should look and play like one. It doesnt right now.

Tho I would prefer such improvements to be done later, when those truly important things are fixed..

Dont want our FPS drop on blood..

The poll creator threw the first stone by indirectly commenting on the life of anyone who chooses the "no" option, saying they are "weak". He deserves to have the mirror turned on him in my opinion.

I vote NO. However it is not because I am "weak" I vote no because I think it would make the game unsellable/restricted in a lot of places all over the world and would hurt ZoS profitability, which (in theory) will affect game quality.

And BTW, I played Skyrim with quite a few mods, many of them related to blood and violence, such as Dance of Death, Better Blood Textures etc, so it has not to do with being "weak".

naturally, as the first mirror logician I welcome the thought. but know this, big stompy leaves a bloody mass (mess). do you hear it flowing through the time? NNNNUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

MMMMM---IIIII /cut

not really in a lot of places. Soldier of Fortune II was available in the most countries (even in germany, although partially censored).
also, if you have missed, I will repeat, optionable off/on. I do not mind region restrictions (locks permanently set on 'off'). There is no reason to worry about its effect on selling rates.

I'm glad to hear that you are not weak <thumbs up>

me too! one of the most satisfying combat:::sorry, the most satisfying combat on the mmo market - at least intensity wise

I would not mind x-ray moves like in mk and sniper elite during eso's finishers. imagine, dreugh bones cracking!

you have just made me want to watch AoC fatalities once again. thank you kind sir!

Biased poll is biased. I refuse to vote in any poll with such dishonestly presented options, and frankly everyone else should too. A poll presented like this is not an honest attempt to find out people's opinions, it's simply a sad, transparent attempt to prove that everyone agrees with OP.

the only bias selection is the no. the others are "flavours"

Exactly - the OP wants some type of blood and gore in the game, and he wants to "prove" that everyone else does too, so he only presents 1 option without it, and does it in a ridiculously biased fashion. It's dishonest and pathetic.

Bring on the gore! This should have been an option from the start, however fixing things is more important right now. I would like to see this added in the future..

You won't get any more than pools of blood and maybe blood on clothes. The reason, the 15 rating on the game, the first two options would instantly reclassify it as an 18 rating.

Oh and the last option is insulting, people might just not want to see blood, it doesn't make them weak. It might be for aesthetic reasons, try not to prejudge in the future, or people might start judging you right back.

Tr1cksh0t

No - I'm weak and such horrible things are not for me. our world is already brutal. I do not want to see it in my games!

You could say the same about all of us. If you think about the whole premise to winning this game is to pretty much kill everything that moves....lol

what else, did you expect? no- because I prefer blue over red?

you call it ridiculously biased fashion, I call it 'reality'.

depends on the rating:
ESRB: M
PEGI: 16 <-- here would be a little bit of problem. but you can sell it in cash shop as 'dlc' and quite easily overcome the problem (just like CA did with Rome II)

To some truth might look as an insult. In my eyes they are weak. what do you mean by aesthetically? as if the bloody body parts should compose a pretty looking painting? if it is because they cannot bear the sight of it, well, the answer is simple: weakness.

i myself turned blood off on skyrim at one point because there was to much and no mod to reduce it some, some prefer it, some don't nothing weak about that.
i myself don't see the point in excessive gore if it's not really part of the game, it just derails from the games feel and increases load issues

No, the reality is that you made the only option that you're opposed to sound as bad as you could because you're not actually interested in knowing what people think, and you're too insecure to handle the possibility that people might disagree with you, so you're desperate to make sure they don't vote that way.

Your poll is bad and you should feel bad.

As if Zenimax would go and change their game according to the outcome of a heavily biased poll in the forums - and thus violating the age rating they already received from various authorities over the world - facing lawsuits in the wake

Ow my! How dare you to imply that weak people are worse than strong ones! There is no shame in truth, we should all embrace who we trully are! Just as I have made 'no' option to look as it looks I have made full gore option connected with my description of it, in other words 'brainhacking liveroloid jawmunching gormeister of oblivion and pain".

in fact I could completely skip the 'no' option and dedicate it to shades of blood and gore. have some appreciation!

I don't feel bad

P.S. 'insecurity' is probably the most common word used on internet in replies. is it some tumblr psychology 101 book?
