I was wondering if anyone at Bioware could confirm if there are any violence/gore options in the PC version.  All I have read is a bunch of asumptions.

Also, if there are no options at launch, would it be possible to mod it/add it later?

Thanks in advance

I know the persistent gore can be toggled off(the blood that stays on your character during/after combat). I am not sure about the comical blood fountains, though.

If you are going to play a game involving the evisceration of blighted creatures, which holds a solid M rating, why bother? Whether the gore is red, green, blue, or non-existent doesn't change the fact that you just crushed that guys head in with a mace instead of a flower.



Even if the mods changed the in-game content, the CG won't be un-bloodable, however.

Comical?



Have you ever seen someone major artery punctured? You have this thing called 'blood pressure' for a reason, and it sprays violently if large enough incision is made on a larger artery.

Sorry - more assumptions. But traditionally Bio's always had a gore control (BG2 super-chunks pwnage LOL)

Very well said.

The key here is "pressure." There are very few places in the body the pressure is actually high enough to create these blood fountains. Seen Kill Bill? Yeah, that's not real.

I am not here to debate what it is right or wrong but don't even make me list the COUNTLESS games that were awesome games but didn't have fountains of blood to make it awesome. Also, I am not about censorship, I am about OPTIONS.



I am here for a quality RPG, not a horror flick. If you there is a gore toggle/mod, then everyone wins.

There should be a toggle that allows you to tone down the blood, gore and violence during the game in the game's menu or control options. A dev. from Bioware did confirm this, although I can't seem to find the exact quote at the moment.

A lot of people agree with you (including me), there was a rather big thread about it in the toolset forum.
So you can be almost certain that if there is no gore option ingame, there should be a mod that adds one relatively soon (depending on how difficult it would be to implement).

Fairly simple, actually. All you would have to do is replace the sprites used for the gore/bloodspray with confetti and sparkles. Should only take a few minutes in the toolset, concievably.

Yeah, if there is any official quotes from Bioware or anything, that would be awesome.  I've already seen enough of the "toughen up/gore rocks" replies...

I respect the artists' and everyone in this forum opinions.  Please respect mine.

I am fine with the blood. It just doesn't look very realistic on characters. In Fact, it's quite ugly, and especially disturbing when they walk into a cut scene with blood all over their faces. I would love it to death if they could add more detail to it. - For example the scene with lelina, i know there is meant to be blood on her face, but simply, it doesn't look very good. No shading.. texture..



But as said before, there is a reason why the game is mature.

Yeah, I respect all views. I know there are ton of people that love blood and gore yet a small amount of people don't care for it.



That is why a toggle is best if possible. Call of Duty: WaW has it. Hell's Highway has it. Diablo III will have it.
