Too much gore?

[Legacy_Zwerkules]

               I've made a hak with placeables that override the Bioware placeables from the OC (no expansions yet).
The corpse placeables looked like they were from minecraft or built with lego, so they didn't really
look 'scary' at all. I've made some really skinny impaled corpses that look starved and other corpses that
look like animals have started to devour them.
Now I'm wondering if that is too much gore. What do you think?



P.S. I've read the rules of conduct and it states that posting pictures with adult content is not allowed, but 'adult content' is a weasel word (or two). If anybody thinks this picture is not appropriate I'll remove it immediately.

               I like it! your approach is just perfect for my taste. I never use gore placeables that much but if I create a place for it it gives the player a signal of danger/ or how he could end up too not by accident...

Bio´s corpse was, yes minecraft or pinnichio is a good example '>

               I agree.
I'm not squeamish about your gore.
In fact the detail, when used sparingly, it adds to the "dread" ambience..
Bring on the gritty, scary realisms ...

               Too much gore? You jest. Speaking as someone who is familiar with blood and placeables and who has just downloaded Ryuujin's Hyper Gore Revised, I have to say give me more gore. I want entrails, a face half peeled away revealing the skull underneath, a corpse with a shark bite taken out of it, etc. you dig?

Nice work Zwerkules BTW ()

               come on guys lets be serious adults here... we all know that a seriously deprived ridiculously malnourished impaled body would look amazing! across a battlefield!

               Ditto. You can never get too much gore. Besides, overhauls of anything dated is most welcome!

               Isn't "Too much gore" an oxymoron? Bwa ha ha!
Especially in a game that features wandering round whacking things wiv a gert sword so much. Looks great by the way.

Added later: we want  a Maggots placeable that fits on copses...

               Agree with Baba and Killmonger.  When used very sparingly, you get maximum effect, and can create a powerful sense of foreboding and dread.  If it's used too much, the impact is negated, and it just becomes part of the scenery -- something Hollywood often forgets.  The "too much gore" comes from how it's used, not how graphically detailed it is.  Nice work Zwerkules.

               Too much gore? Not enough Ghor!



More seriously I don't think anyone in the community now is likely to be squeamish (I'm certainly not). It can be overdone but thats more in placeable placement than a reason not to provide the placeables. Although I think there is a serious lack of content for rotting corpses that have been left awhile: bright red blood stains only really work for very fresh corpses.

Also better flies.

And smell!  I want smell!  Get a big pork roast and some calves liver and stick it in a gabage can and leave it outside to rippen for a few days in the summer.  Make sure you leave a small opening for flies!  Smell-o-vision!  Oh yeah...  '>

               Options are always good. It's up to the builder to decide which and how many placeables to use. Speaking as a builder, when I want to place a corpse (fresh or otherwise), I want it to look like a corpse and not a PG version of it. Likewise I don't want every corpse to be for the Fangoria fans. Being able to pick from a variety of mayhem and decomposition would be utterly fantastic.
