This system uses a blood mask (texture) used to create blood effects in your characters, you can shoot/hit them in animation or in ragdoll mode. No c++ required, it uses a SceneCapture2D to render the blood mask texture only when a new hit is requested, it have no extra performance cost and no additional draw calls when not adding new hits.

Important/Additional Notes:

• It uses a "SceneCapture2D" for rendering the hit location and an additional "Render Material to RenderTarget" for dilating the blood mask for removing possible UV seams. It only renders when you request a new hit in the mesh, the character shader doesn't have any additional performance cost other than just having an extra texture in your material.
  
• It requires your mesh to have a second UV (lightmap UV) that have a full body UV with no overlaping UVs for the blood mask to work. (you need to be able to edit your mesh UVs in a DCC software like Blender or Maya)

Luckily there is the option of enabling or disabling the Gore, usually, in serious games for the reason you mention. I don't like splatter style but until the blood is limited to some realism is fine to me.

I'm more concerned about the 1st person exclusive view in games, games developers often forget or do not care about the fact 1st person view, especially if prolonged for all the length of the game itself.
A lot of gamers avoid some titles for that reason and I know that because I'm one of them. part of the problem is the fact the 1st person view is most of times totally unrealistic and that helps generating headaches and strong nausea. It takes less than 5 minutes like that to me, to feel the urge to quit. A good balance in gameplay choices and mechanics is essential, mandatory and very responsiblefor me.

In general I agree with you if you say games developers should keep always in mind the health of gamers, especially for the youngest.

Is it possible to change animations on amount of wounds?
