How gory can a game truly become without any actions taken against it?

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    So my game (Regrouping) right here: Regrouping [BETA] - Roblox
    Is currently not gory. Not fun (i am not a psychopath). I want to make it more interesting with gore, the thing is, how gory can a game become until roblox decides this is too much.

Look at other games on the platform that centre around gore, hell you can blow heads off with shotguns in some and see the brain inside the head, I think all that’s needed is for you to make the OPTION to disable gore.

Or an option to enable gore… Roblox spins a wheel blindfolded and throws darts at it. Whatever game is hit, gets banned. They really are iffy on their blood policy. By having to manually enabling gore, it could make it less likely for little timmy to see gore as he jumps around on moms ipad.

Tuff question, games like combat warriors have some realistic blood and it’s still up, however games like Redbox with more gore are banned. I might go somewhere in the middle of not like combat warriors.

People don’t play games for the goriness, they play it for the functionality, goriness isn’t going to make or a break a game, I wouldn’t recommend pushing the borders in this area as it could compromise your account/game.

That’s putting it lightly. The blood/gore policy is beyond ambiguous.

If you’re implementing blood/gore beyond a small red cloud, you have to have gore opt-in. This is just what I’ve observed many [popular] games doing, so don’t quote me on the aforementioned.

On another note, assuming timmy’s mom never enabled parental controls on the ipad in the first place, safari is nothing short of… open season.

While there’s no definitive “gore threshold”, one thing I can assure you is that it ultimately boils down to:

How big your game is; aka, how much of a loss would Roblox take if they put their foot down?

Im not trying to make my game based about gore, but a large chunk of roblox is 13+ and would appreciate bloody shooters, so im trying to add some blood here and there.
