In case anyone's thinking they can get by and ignore the gore scenes, the majority of the scenes are gory deaths, not light gore/brutal. I beat the whole game and didn't encounter any scat (even in the gallery), so unless you intentionally lose to every monster, it's hard to see (DOWN+C is your friend
). Also, it might just be my laptop, but don't press any buttons during loading screens or between boss openings and fights. There's some kind of bug that causes the screen to stay white or REALLY dark if you do, but I've avoided them so far by not doing any additional button presses. If you're not into the girl getting torn to shreds at the end of most scenes, this isn't for you though.
