Where is all the BLOOD?

[DudeBro69]

In DAO you were drenched in blood after every fight

Fights had micro finishers for each crit or kill and big finishers for elites/bosses with blood spray/decapitations etc.

Where is the blood here?

Is there a gore setting?

Sadge

The finishing moves in DAO were top tier.

Jump atop the dragon and blood spray everywhere.

Also blood staying on the armor long after the fight and during cutscenes

RIP BIOWARE

I know?!! That was kinda one of the defining visual elements of the first games.
Hardly surprising though, the original devs have long gone.
If this is the future of gaming...bring on the crash!

[V.V.]

I think in certain countries, they can't have blood shown in games. So it was probably removed so they can sell it everywhere.

I just saw the pre order bonus armor.

I think they put all the blood on it, then found there was none left to put inside the enemies.

lmao

I'd say they censored it to lower the age rating...but its still rated 18, so I got no idea.

There's still romance and the like, but I would say you are right, they try to family-friendly this game but exploring sexualities are still A-Ok

The developers thought it was icky. They also didn't like that players may want to roleplay an evil character, or at least an "ends justifies the means" character and give meaningful choices. Nope, all you can do is 4 variations of "I agree with you because I'm a nice guy".

If there's one thing that I've especially disliked about this game so far, it's Rook. Rook is really annoying because Rook is the protagonist in corporate training cartoons.

Rook is an amalgamation of Pip-boy and Flo from the progressive commercials.

It's because the game is not about you.
It's about the narcissistic creators who are vicariously playing out their sermonic fantasies via the companion story arcs

Why can't there be a counter SBI consulting group? Who on the Bioware team thought it was a good idea NOT to continue the Inquisitor's storyline with SOLAS present? WHO? WTF would we want to play some random "Rook" dude?

I was still holding out hope we'd play as Morrigan's child, some possible Elder God dragon thing in a human body. But nope, even THAT plotline is whatevered.

You can't even be moderately bad in the game as all answers are yes, yes and yes. Why would there be blood?

[TimsGamingDen]

there is blood, do a takedown and you will see it.
But it doesnt stick :)

This is disneyfied slop for snowflakes that live in an alternate universe. What do you expect lol

You dont need a Counter SBI group, you just need to not pay SBI to ruin your game, and publicly say: "We dont work with SBI/Similar", and you game sales will be at least 30% Higher. *laugh*

Not here in Germany, it is the first DA that got a 16 rating while the rest had an 18! So for us and other countries it has nudity in it so that may be the reason there for you.
