| Plastiware:
The latest update has made default a feature that some of us, myself included, are uneasy about. Blood and gore are now officially part of the vanilla Blockland. Sure, it's only in one gamemode, and only caused by two specific types of death, but the fact remains that players can explode into a shower of blood and leave behind a bloody, limbless, and apparently skinless corpse in the unmodded game. The question comes to you, Blocklanders. Do you think this feature of blood and gore enhances the game in some way? Perhaps you think it's awesome, or even hilarious. Or is it totally without sense and out of place in a cute, cartoonish, toy-themed game like Blockland? Perhaps disturbing? Argue about it and call each other names Discuss. |

If you think it's disturbing you're too easily offended, and maybe stupid too It's just a game addon with virtual (not even realistic looking) blood |

And in a game that attracts 8-10 year olds, it doesn't seem completely appropriate. I just don't think that sort of thing belongs in something like Blockland. If any different kind of death should be implemented, I think it should be one like in the Lego Star Wars games, where the mini-fig falls apart. |

It takes some pretty nasty, hateful stuff to offend me. Cute little toy people exploding into skinless corpses, however, is a pretty disturbing cake no matter how you slice it, and it doesn't fit the game's style at all. |

I feel the same way, but now that it's put in the game, I highly doubt it will be removed. |
