Besides, it is childish to think "I want a darker game, gratuitous violence and gore is the way to do it."Not really, it makes it more realistic.
Not really when you consider who is doing the fighting.
Spartans are weapons trained by the millitary since the age of six. Why does they fight the covenant? Because they are ordered to. They doesn't have any reason to hate the covenant to the point where he would unneccesarily start ripping off arms just to cause his opponent pain before they die. I don't know about you, but if I was in a fight and I had spartan strength, I'd just punch my opponent and break his spine instead of uselessly ripping of limb, because as I revel in his blood, his allies are going to start shooting me to death, and I'm going to stand there like an idiot with only his arm in my hand to defend myself. If he had that behaviour trait, he would also be inclined to taking rash actions without thinking. It just doesn't match up.
Spartans are calm and cool killers. They don't fight because they like watching their enemies die. They do it because they must.
As I said before, go play Gears of War. If bungie had any intention of goring up their game at any time, they could have done it in any of the previous games. Flood get ripped apart by shotgun fire, remember? Why not use the same physics to make brutes or grunts or jackals or elites do that? Because they didn't find it neccesary.
