Reduce Gore

Disables most in-game violence, such as dismemberment, finishing, and combat blood.

This MOD is disabled

Dismember a slain enemy

Terminator

Pool of blood after death of human NPC

The body parts scattered after the enemy's explosion

Red water after enemy dies in water

Combat blood (sword effects and ground strain)

Note that even with the reduced visual violence, the game still displays a lot of uncensored violence.

This module is not disabled :(

Blood effect after spinning explosion (quite annoying)

Live blood and gore (annoying, but rare)

Blood stains in the environment (annoying)

With this mode, the game should be on The Witcher 2 level in terms of player-induced visual violence (minus the battle blood). Unfortunately, the official modkit only crashes on my computer, so I can't work on models and textures.

If you have specific ideas on how to further reduce the visual violence, I'd be happy to hear it (any ideas on how to replace the combs in the environment with less ripping, censored bloody wounds, especially flying heads?) My goal is just to change the visual violence, not to change the Witcher lore.

If you don't like the red blood-like borders on the screen when health is low, check out this mod: Remove Low Health Effect
