My only concern about this game

Go ahead. Call me a baby. Come on now. I won't care.

I'm a bit concerned that there will be blood squirting EVERYWHERE. Don't get me wrong, I'm not overly squeamish. But someone said something about "demon familiars ripping out enemy's still-beating heart and eating it". Excuse me, but, YUCK! I don't want to have to close my eyes every time I kill an enemy. This game looks fantastic, but I hope they don't make it TOO disgusting, and if they do I'd like an option to turn off the gore (or at least the truly horrifying parts).

Is this too much to ask for?

Thanks.

    Don't buy m rated games then.

    I don't know what else to say. Maybe warhammer online.

    What a thoughtless response. Let me put it this way: This looks like an incredible game, better than any game I've seen, released or in development. This truly seems to be the ultimate mmorpg to date, based in a riveting, brutal world with outstanding graphics and music and an amazing, revolutionary combat system and PVP potentially better than Daoc. All I ask is that I don't have to see somebody's heart get eaten out, and you tell me not to buy M Rated games and suggest another EQ/WoW clone.

    Buy the German version, they have strict rules to blood in games and I am sure they will color it green like most blood games they get over there.

    Also I am pretty sure they will have an option in the game to turn off the blood effect.

    But I don't speak german, lol. I realize that it would be pretty hard to get an option to turn off the blood, just lots of time that could be better spent. But it is just sad that nowadays, the only way to entertain the general gaming audience is to blast blood and guts everywhere. Anybody remember Rome? It fell after it became a city without morals who enjoyed watching people get ripped to shreds by lions. I'm just requesting that they cut down on the gore just a bit to make it playable for those who don't like blood spraying out of someone after they've been poked.

    Actualy, an option to turn blood or other extreme gore stuff off is not that hard to do. In fact, its very easy to do. A pretty simple IF statment,
    ...
    if(GV_gore_level==true){
        Char.PlayGoreAnim();
    }else{
        Char.PlayRegularAnim();
    }

     or whatever.



    I am the type of player where I like to do everything and anything from time to time.

    Actually, as long as the blood and gore remain on the other side of my monitor, I will be satisfied. It's when it crosses to my side of the monitor I begin to worry...

    Spatter Vision! The revolutionary new way to play! Tired of the same old pixelated gore? Well now it comes to you! Our monitors come with their very own supply of the blood type of your choice, human, nubile virgin, dragon, or fairy dust, when you perform that fatality, you get blood sprayed in your face! Feel the Thrill!

    LOL! Does Splatter Vision offer a monitor wiper attachment along with that as well?

    I agree with the OP, i am all for blood, but way to much can make the game corney. Thats why i couldnt stnad mortal combat, every hit made blood fly every where and it jsut got cheesy after a while.

    I wanna see the enemy, even your character bleed, but not turn into the walking bloodwork water fall.

    That's true. I would assume or at least hope that they will make it semi-realistic. Afterall, the human body only holds so much.

    Look at the movie "Kill Bill", people loved it for being over the top.  I personally couldn't stand the movie, but it still is a good movie nonetheless.

    I just wish they would release some new information, movies or something!!!  Warhammer is coming out with tons of new information all the time, while AoC is the same ol same.

    lol.. Yeah, but in those big battles, with lots of people.. will blood just squirt all around so you cant see?

    Excuse me?  Have you played any MMO games recently?  I do not know of one MMO game that is in a Live state that has any kind of dismemberment, gore, or bleeding.  WoW is the #1 MMO in the WORLD and it has almost no sign of realism when it comes to combat.

    AoC will most definitley be in the minority when it comes to comparisions between realistic/non realistic game violence.

    --- One more thing, there will most likely be a way to turn down the blood if you do not want to see it.

    Conan of Age?

    In any case, Dameonk is right, while much of the gaming industry is indeed going in that direction, MMORPGs have not until now with only a few exceptions, none of which are ever mentioned here.

    They probably won't. Such animations would require a lot of work. I'm confident that'll you'll experience blood and decapitations and a perhaps even some disembowlments, but I don't think you'll eat a heart every time you kill an enemy.

    He's right, its a fatality available only to the demonologists familiar, at least thats the way its looking.
