The game needs more gore

We need more immersion gore is very toned down, dissapears too fast, we can use more options or sliders to gore.
A diablo game without good semipermanent gore cannot make the impression of our hero being a supreme killing machine, pools of blood and plenty of corpses/gibs MAKE a difference.

you could feel the lack of “punch” in comparison with diablo 2 or even 3 , why demons dissapear? so fast even, or the bears? it really kills my immersion to the point I want to not play anymore or run from the killing zone to not see the corpse to disspear.

please add some options to tune the gore, the gibs and the number of corpses, plenty modern pc´s can manage that without any problem…don´t consolify this game like this.

Game needs build diversity first, then we can sart talking about how many pieces enemies explode into.

Jesus christ game needs good itemization and open world end game options. Like terror areas in some area of the map and some other corner should be with +50% monster density and more helltide type of events and solve the trade issue.

If gore would be the main issue this game would already be 5/5

yes it needs better itemization, but as a veteran from since diablo 1, atmosphere is important. To the point you can grind more and not have this currently sour aftertaste.

they are not mutually exclusive you know.

Heard you out man, just mega frustrated atm…

The world has moved on since Carmageddon and Splatterhouse.

Over the top gore detracts from realism, there is plenty of blood and gore. Gratuitous gore would do the game a disservice.

We have people flayed, impaled on spikes, cut in half, eviscerated, exploded, bursting with flies, maggots, spiders…

I know it “used to be cool” to want blood and gore back in school, but it’s 2023, kids watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre and laugh, as a society we have seen the real horror, it is in the form of… too little stash space. (And energy bills from gluttonous energy CEOs):scream:

lol no, I mean a gore that is not a bbq sauce at minor spots.
a gore that stays at least a little while I move from the spot.
bosses that don´t dissapear.
You totally exagerate what I tried to say.
Game already has pools of blood for environments, Im sure they can manage some gibs and some more blood on dead bodies.

To what end?

We blaze passed the corpses onto the next mob.

Why waste resources on particle effects of no value?

waste? it adds IMMERSION , by that logic we should return to old graphics then
in fact the blood was already there in the beta, they toned it down?
also I sugested a slider or more options to the gore to the people that wants zero gore /blood (for kids, potato pc´s or whatever) to the hardcore old fans of diablo like me that wants violent deaths on demons¡, feeling the progresion when you pop mobs like no tomorrow.

the option to tune it it´s what many veterans want. At the very least the options to display more ragdolls and corpses, not seeing a big bear dissapear like a cheap 2 dollar game.

Immersive?

Have you ever struck a person so hard that a spray of claret bursts into the air?

I can tell you, it’s nothing like in the movies. :laughing:

I have actually been stabbed with a navy sword, and the amount of blood was laughable compared to any gut wound in any movie ever.

Have you seen someone shot? Point blank, in the back of the head? 3 of your highschool friends, for instance, during a robbery? Less blood than one hammer swing on a barbarian.

The game is full of gore as is. You want Tom Savini style blood and gore. But the rest of us are happy with Clive Barker gore. :+1:

ok again you are doing your own narrative.
And clearly you don´t want to aknowledge that I want the option, you want zero corpses ok you want more diablo feeling? add more
“Full gore” for you is spots of bbq sauce and big corpses dissapear in my char face.
I call it hardly immersion.
I dont want sprays ala quentin, just more gibs (game already has but they dissapear too fast like stupid fast) some more blood on the floor , and some more corpses if not permanent (they can do it) at least a more number of them. Idk why you equate this as a bad movie from the eighties.

We dont stand still, we keep going.

The Gibs despawn to maintain performance.

I understand what you want, I loved Dawn of War for how it left hundreds of gibbed corpses around your turrets.

But the game is great as is, it’s huge and mobs are on screen for 15 seconds before we are off to the next mob.

But, if you want to request it. Why not.

First of all, game needs to run fine. Then we can talk about other things.

Agree with OP. Killed things dissappear almost instantly, instead of staying on the floor. Look at gore in skyrim, when you kill a bandit it stays dead there on the ground, you can camp and sleep and next day his corpse is still there. This is much more realistic than Diablo flawed solution. You kill a bear and 5 seconds later it magically dissappear. Fairy tale world, not dark and serious game.
Blizz please add slider to gore/corpse dissappear timers, current default settings are dumb.

But it would put more pressure on their already unstable game, underfunded servers.

They cut down monster numbers, stuck us all on the same world together if we like it or not, all to save money, c’mon they’ve only made $1billion from this game, what do you expect!

Yes, it needs sex, drugs & Rock ‘n’ Roll. And a bit less boredom.

Oh, now I understand. Please take my excuses. He hit you on/in the head, didn’t he?

No. It was in the thigh. You’re not good at this game.

Modern gaming can manage it no problem also I agree that the game has big problems like itemization as a veteran from since D1 I know what this game lacks…one of the things it lacks is proper gore for a diablo game.
, perhaps blizzard wanted the “appeasing china” route.
As I said a dissapearing big body in my char`s face cannot be immersive at all.
But I agree the game has other problems, homever this is a very big company and this is a game with a very big price tag, we should have a set of options to customize our ammount of blood and gore.

Are you on max settings, or really slow? Literally the bodies are left in my wake, and there is blood flying everywhere, wonder if your region is censored.
