    Is there any blood in oblivion? I watched some vid clips of it and saw swords going thru ppl and no blood was to be seen

    For a First Person game, this does not look right! Especially with swords!

    so is there blood or not??

    please dont merge this topic into the other oblivion topic. You guys dont merge all the different CSS topics into one. Or all the WoW topics into one.. This topic should be treated the same as any other game

    there's a blood setting. the blood doesn't look real, and obviously you can't cut off people's body parts.

    when an arrow goes through someone, there is blood..when you hit someone with a sword there is blood (havent used any other weapons yet, but i will soon)..but i think the blood looks pretty good..it splatters on the floor or rocks..also the physics is pretty cool too..there is no area specific damage, so if you hit them in the head..it is the same damage as if you hit them in the toe.

    pb,out.

    I merged it last time because it had to do with oblivion. Please do not post something like that ^ again, thanks. I'll let this thread go since I'm a nice guy, but if you have something related to another topic, post the question in there.

    This is a very simple question which can be answered easily if you put it in the Oblivion thread we already have. I don't see the need for an extra thread. This time I will let it go for your sake. Let's leave it at that, thanks.
