It seems that TES fans are very afraid of change. I've seen people bombard forums with "They should just stick to focusing on single player!" whenever someone suggests a cooperative mode of some sort, and now gore is being shut out by fans too? I mean, if you REALLY must know why anyone would like a decent amount of gore in a game where you're USUALLY whacking people with swords of all sorts of sizes... Welp, beleive it or not, usually, when you take a massive claymore to the face, you don't bounce around in a comical ragdoll way. Personally, I don't demand gore, but I think its an interesting thing that should be done well in any mature, violent game. Especially considering we know Bethesda CAN do it well. I mean, what, "Think of the children!"?... Think of the parents who aren't responsible enough to be keeping the damn gore-filled games away from their children. Still, ultimately, its not a big deal, because... In the most simple statement I can make that I know we can all agree on... TES is amazing, and gore will never be a deciding factor in if the game is good or not.
