Beast Busters for arcade had some nice exaggerated gore.

Gotta love the pixel detail in gore for old videogames.

There's were also a pair of shoot 'em ups with bizarre gore, I think the name of one was X-Multiply or something like that.
In the other you fly in a dragon.

best graphically are the finishers of ethernal champions for sega cd if ya ask me.

Blood storm is gameplaywise the most brutal as you can keep fighting with missing limps.

Weapon lords fatality combo system made it very gruesome, as you gutted, and then beheaded the enemy step by step with button input.

And finally House of the dead and soldier of fortune are quite detailed in their violence functions.

DreamWeb for Amiga and PC
I played it on Amiga, but the vid I used for the webm seemed to come from the PC-Version judging by the poor sound of the original video.

I still think this was one of the many inspirations for the Hotline Miami games, despite DreamWeb being extremely slower gameplaywise in comparison, since this isn't an action game but rather an adventure.

That and the heavy religious/hell/satanistic themes too.

It didn't got published because the company that was going to do so, but they (virgin interactive NA) were bought out by EA, and EA thought that releasing a game like that would be bad for their image/reputation, even if all the damn thing needed to be released was getting greenlit by the publisher.

Later on the same engine was re-used for some other fighting games.

Blood's imagery is incredibly violent, even if it's meant to be tongue-in-cheek. Caleb's misanthropic attitude (killing innocent civilians while quipping one-liners, slapping a hanging mutilated corpse while mimicking Duke Nukem's "shake it baby" line, laughing maniacally whenever he kills something with explosives be it good or bad, etc.) is something that just wouldn't fly in 2017.

The Dungeon Keeper games have some fairly fucked up premises when you examine them.

The torture room has some funny but also fucked up bits to it. There are also audio easter eggs pertaining to this in particular.

There's at least 1 implied gang rape in the first one against the Avatar.

There is also of course blood and gore and starving people to death.

Irrespective of that you should play them because they're both amazing.

Blood's setting is basically Half Life 2 except replace the combine with demons and the fact that they basically just killed almost all of humanity, and used the corpses for a zombie army to reinforce their might.

It's pitch black darkness basically, which is why the tone works so well, and it's actually kind of funny that the only reason this world was "saved" was because one guy was fucked over by the demon and got so pissed that he came back a vampire, destroying everything in his path to Tchernobog.

And yeah, no way in hell a game like this could be made today.
>>
>>4207706
Postal 2 is one of the greatest games of all time, however.

>>4208123
Pretty much. Postal 2 is too ridiculous to take seriously, and yes, it genuinely is possible to beat the game without killing a single person, and without really engaging in exploits like with Deus Ex. There's more than just the taser, there's using catnip to just run through the encounter at super speed, using the hatchet or dismembering items to hack off a hand or a leg so that they can't chase you or they run away screaming, you can shoot them in the leg so they go down but do not die, you can piss on them so they vomit even if they have a gun up, the list just keeps going.

Really? Is the pussification of America really that complete?

I hate what's happening to society. Games like that are beautiful, are art.

On the other hand, there are plenty of recent games that are at least as gory, and Duke in Duke Nukem Forever had an attitude problem that didn't go over well with libtards and the like (but it still got made).

I haven't played DNF, so I don't know if he's as bad as Kaleb in the Blood series, but I did read one than one review that complained about that game's un-politically correct sense of humor.

There's also still the Postal games. Those haven't gone anywhere. I never did play PIII, but a new P2 campaign was released not too long ago, and apparently they're working on a real Postal 3.

that one. chiller is one of the only games i've ever played that genuinely feels like it was made by people who weren't right in the head. it's not even consistently gorey and the general theming is actually very stereotypical halloween stuff so it makes the gorey bits just that much more weird, creepy and out of place. it feels like a game someone would make up for a creepypasta or something. like it was just a regular kid-friendly shooter where you killed vampires and mummies that somehow had horrific human torture slipped into it

dnf is genuinely bad and goes against the tone of the previous games. it's edgy to a fault and the edginess is lazily written anyway.

I beat the original Postal 2 without killing anyone, it didn't have dismemberment items, so I got by with catnip and pissing. If I remember correctly, you could also throw cats to kill people and it wouldn't count as a kill (maybe only in Apocalypse Weekend?)

Because having the protagonist of your FPS be an occult-worshipping edgelord who spouts edgy one-liners while shooting innocents is perfectly kosher, amirite

If Blood wasn't released as late as it was, I guarantee you it would've caused a columbine-tier moral panic. Caleb guns down an innocent civilian saying a prayer in the final cutscene for fuck's sake, he's one step away from being edgier than Hatred's protag

You can chop off a guy's leg, and he'll keep hopping toward you on his remaining one. While he's doing that, you can grab his chopped off leg off the ground and beat him to death with it.

I suppose it's not that shocking just saying it, but the technology showcase that the game was built around is dynamically, directly controlling your character's arm. Swinging the sword to chop something's limb off and then bashing that limb into them repeatedly until they stop struggling is a lot more visceral then just watching an animation of the same a la mortal kombat.

Honestly nothing has changed, there have been moral guardians for decades, all of these posts that say things like "this would never fly in 2017" are absolutely full of shit. The same sort of things still get released today and while people may sometimes whine about it, they whined about that shit being released in the 90's as well.
