3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Yes, but the trait Bloody Mess literally was in the first games, it was just translated into a Perk for 3 when they got rid of traits. It isn't a reference to 1 and 2 being gorey, it's a literal named continuation of the Bloody Mess trait in perk form.

As far as I recall there is no dismemberment on crit without flavor text or special weapon on 3+ unless you had bloody mess, on f1-2 is was a lower chance than with the trait but still possible.

But again my point is that its always been gorey more so if you make the correct choices.

I just think it's a bit silly to say that, it's like saying Stimpaks are a reference to Fallout 1 and 2 having health points, and not a literal carryover from 1 and 2.

I don't think they're at all the same but you're certainly welcome to your opinion.
