Glad that decals themselves are back..but there is still the issue of..well, the effects themselves.
Couple things I noticed in the new xbox video. As you can see in this gif:

For some reason their is blood in the air before he strikes. Swords on't "fill up with blood", at least not that much, so I don't really understand it.
But, the worst thing is that you can see some of the decals when he is fighting the wolves in the water.. and...
Well..it appears that instead go pools of blood like the 35 minute gameplay, or even last gen GTA5...the decals are the exact same..they just appear on the floor beneath the water.
I hope that this is a glitch as well. That would really stink.
I am thinking of asking for a confirmation if the blood effects from that earlier demo are still present. Any RED people or others with the appropriate knowledge have confirmation on the fact?
Here is the video:
