combat looks option and gore option question
For some reason I never noticed this option, well I wanted to know what it does exactly and neither my manual nor the one I downloaded states what 'combat looks' does, if someone doesnt mind telling me.
Another question, Id like to see all deaths in F2 but not always exagerated deaths, the manual hints that the devs consider the option above normal "normal", so Im not really sure whats normal, I just want to see all available deaths but not always exagerated if'ya know what I mean, thx ahead of time.

Make sure you don't choose the "Bloody Mess" trait at the beginning... If you've chosen it, there'll be no other than exaggerated deaths. Next you might consider dropping the violence level from the max setting a bit lower. But... Who cares, I always play with it on full? There ain't so many different death animations anyways, just add as much blood & gore as you can take.
lol Id never choose that trait, one of the most useless/boring possible.
Meh, I think the manual states it very clear, "On Maximum Blood, you will see the most violent, gruesome deaths possible. Normal shows most of the deaths, but doesnt show a couple of the really bloody ones... Notice that Maximum Blood is the default setting, and Normal is not. That should be a scary indicator of what the development team consideres normal"
Anyone know what 'combat looks' option does?

Combat looks is pretty useful. It means that, when in combat, instead of clicking someone, you can just hover over an enemy, and you instantly get all his details, like hitpoints, weapon, ammo (if you don't have awareness, you'll just get the critter's wounded status), and you don't have to switch the cursor around as much in combat.
All in all, it simply saves you a few frustrating clicks.

Combat looks is a must for me. It saves time and clicking energy, and it's good to see enemy stats and weapons.
As far as gore, set it to max and then just play. This should unlock all death "types." Don't take the bloody mess trait, that just makes every death maximum gore.

Blizzard, one needs variance. If there isnt a mix of violence and no violence, fighting and talking, it's not good. It's like watching a movie that is just about splashing blood all over everything and calling it a horror movie (see almost every horror movie made in America the last decade or so) as opposed to something glorious and beautiful like The Birds.

Max violence (or whatever the max setting is called) means that all gorry animations are included (a-la exploding like a blood sausage), normal the person just falls over and blood comes out, and at the lowest setting the person just falls over, no blood. (that's for the kiddie's).
I don't recommend the lowest setting, just because you can't tell if a person is dead or knocked out. (unless you're paying attention)
