That would in my opinion, hurt the sales of the sequel, because these games are literally designed for families to play together, and violence would alienate parents who want to buy it and players who dislike violence. I’d say part of the reason WSC failed is because it was E10+ and parents who buy it for the family took it literally, than never bought it.
