I'm kinda disappointed there is no dismemberment, coupled with the more realistic ragdoll physics, because yeah. The lack of heads exploding and bodies being flung back does make them seem less powerful than they look. Still, there is something to be said about an enemy just crumpling upon death that is pretty visceral.
I wonder if that’s something that MS asked Bethesda to tone down for some type of non-US audience reasons. Bethesda has always loved their icky bits in the games (looking at you various Cannabalism related perks!). I mean we can traffic in organs in Starfield! So some ick is still there. But maybe someone considers the head-popping and body blowing up stuff to be just a bit too far though.
