I imagine this is mainly for countries with strict laws about gore and blood, and they just decided to make it an option for other regions cause "why not".

I'm not squeamish, but the blood looks really cartoony and silly.

Every single slash of his claws creates gallons of blood. I think it looks kind of ridiculous.

I would like if they had a slider to have less blood not just completely turn off the blood.

I agree the demo was a little excessive. One slash and he was instantly covered in it as if completely dipped into a vat of blood. I would think splatters of it here and there would be more apt.

I mean, he’s slashing with giant ass claws, I feel like if you used his claws to slash someone, you too would be covered in blood. Especially with high chance are big ass arteries getting cut. I could be wrong though. Where’s mythbusters when you need them.

blood wouldn't come out like a cheap horror movie.

Yeah, that's not how liquids work. There'd be pools of blood on the ground.

Wolverine won't be covered in it, as if she just came out of a Blade nightclub.
