In terms of written texts, these restrictions don't apply as strictly, so Intrepid has plenty of leeway there. How graphic (violence, gore...) would you like these (written) stories to be? Do you want them to sugarcoat it to correspond with the graphical nature of the game or would you prefer them to be open and descriptive regarding the Horrors the citizens of Verra had to endure?

The nastier and gorier the better. I don't need to know what colour the child's teddy-bear was and how fluffy it felt while she ran to the portal with it. I do need to know how many arms and limbs she saw torn off on the way through the blood-soaked killing-grounds towards the portal. Excite, shock, thrill. Don't bore.
