Such messages come as stock in most codebases, but they are not "realistic". A mob described as "DYING" will generally heal back to full health if left alone, and you'll see the same sort of "leaking guts" status even if you're fighting something like a skeleton.

Actually I'd find that far preferable to the stock combat messages you described previously, whereby you can "ANNIHILATE" or "DISEMBOWEL" someone who will then be right as rain after a few minutes of standing around.
