Off cuttable body parts

[elleryss]

Not even sure if this is even possible but my idea is as following:

I think it would be great that when you kill an enemy you actually feel like you really killed him
 instead of just having a final slash and he dies with only some blood covering his face.

So my suggestion is that when you have your last hit at an enemy (the killing blow) and you hit hes head you cut their head off.
This would work for different kind of hitboxes for example, when you hit their arms you cut a hand off, if you hit their chest you would see a major wound.

This shoudln't look rediculous ingame, like too much body parts flying around, you get my point.
I just think it would bring in a better experience if you could actually see some damage that you cause with your enormous weapon.

What do you guys think about this?

what about maces and other blunt weapons?

They could maybe leave another physical effect, like a half smashed helm/head or stomped arm?

Just to be clear, what we want is this:

Hehe well in some sort of way yes,
I think the blood shoudln't be too much because when your in a large battle it would be raining, blood.

But you get the idea, your finishing move has to be deadly, deadly as in meat flying off

Meat that could later be roasted, or eaten raw. Which brings us to second suggestion: mutilating/eating enemy corpse, because killing him wasn't enough to satisfy your hatred for him.

hahaha, exactly

I prefer to keep it on the realistic side, so no thanks.
Also Vikingr has beheadings, looks awful, your head just disapears with lots of blood and a new generic silly looking one spawns and rolls around abit.

This idea makes it realistic, you think it is realistic the way it is now? having huge swords slashins around you w/o beheading or anything else?
And yea, if you code things wrong and it looks awfull its not fun at all. But why do you think if another mod has it coded badly so will crpg?

[Kenji]

Maybe.

So long we get the option to turn the effects on or off due to fps concerns, I'm all for it. (Just like blood and particle effects)

One thing that's got me better immersed into the violent and brutal world of Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas was because of the limbs and heads being able to explode or cut off, but considering this game is rated T for teen (13+), a disclaimer for the worried parents is probably needed if ever developed

If it gets too intense, at the body cutting part we maybe could find another way to attach more physical damage to your enemy's, think of just open wounds, smashed arms etc.
