Yes. My review is out. You should really read it if you're think about getting this game.

IMO.

Read nao.

I want to play this game sooooo much, but I'm really squeamish and there's a lot of gore...

It's actually not too bad if you can stomach just cosmetic damage and occasional gory headshots. Otherwise, its mostly out of the picture when she or others get hurt... Although there are a few occasionally very, very nasty spike in the throat sequences which are...ugh.

I couldn't even play Skyrim until I applied a no blood mod. (Not that I got very far in that game anyway...)

I thought skyrim was not very high on the blood level, but I do like patching gore out if possible.

I doubt I will be getting the new tomb raider game, but it looks fun

Hence why I'm not buying Tomb Raider, even though I really want to. :/

How long did it take for you to type the whole thing?

No problem with that. I often turn the blood option in Gears of War games off and the profanity filter on because of the excessive and absurd amounts of both in those titles.

Trust me, it is quite enjoyable.

You'll be missing out. I don't think there is a 'no-blood' option now, but who knows- they might patch it...

A good hour or so was spent typing the thing, while I put in around 34 hours on the game in order to review it well enough. I work in a small group of indie devs now, so we have time to do things around the office other than strictly "work" stuff haha. Plus, it's not like it wasn't gaming related or a waste of time- it was quite enjoyable as my review showed.
