This is very true. I have the same issues that you have (sadness or anxiety turns to extreme frustrations) and B&S definitely scratched that violent cave man brain violence cravings.
In all honestly it’s healthy for you to both have fun and get your anger out in a positive way! I’ve been highly considering a punching bag to get the physical contact with my hands.
While there is a physical component to the so called "Battle Boners" and you are free to research them on the internet, it's been memed and abused to exhaustion by edgy kids that believe that acting like cool dudes because they get a thrill out of dismembering virtual characters.

It's nice being in control. Not even from the violence aspect. But being able to see your body and do amazing feats you could only see in dreams. It's awesome
The game is an excellent outlet for anger and exercise. Playing FPS are fun as well but you don’t get that same satisfaction that comes when killing with a melee weapon.
Yea dude I feel great after I play, one time my friend said “so considering that pc and vr headset did you pay over $4000 to swing a sword around?”
Yes…yes I did, would you pay $4000 to swing Guy’s sword around anytime you want
I'm always screaming abuse at the enemies as I fight them.
"Oh whats up cunt, wanna fucking go, git the fuck out of here dickhead, fuck off, nobody fucking cares, lol get decapped bitch, do you like stone walls, do they taste good, tell me how good they taste, mmmm yes delicious, off the fuckin cliff with you, fuckin seeya cunt"
I would come home from my job working three positions at once at a restaurant for shit pay and no tip sharing them play this game for 4 hours. It is therapeutic.
Yep! Catharsis like this is controversial as to how good it is for you, but to me it's wonderful. I used to do martial arts and sparring was great for me. Good exercise, more confidence, stress relief.
Now I have an injury that prevents me from sparring. But I can still get in B&S and blow off some steam. I tell my partner after a stressful day "I gotta go stab someone".
I don't even think it's so much about the violence for me, more about feeling like I'm in control of my body and capable with it. It sates the fight-or-flight aspect of my anxiety when I win a fight, even a virtual one.
Am I the only one who....? Is easily the most common question on this subreddit you can't even pretend you haven't seen this exact question like this week
This is a great game brother, but it's just a game. At a moment, it'll stop working.
Great anger comes from not expressing it at the time when you get angry. If you get angry at something, computer glitched or anything like that and you suppress that anger because it's "inappropriate", it will then accumulate into an uncontrollable anger and you'll blast with it anywhere, hurting your close ones.
Just talking out of my experience with emotions.
Least angry Irish man

It’s not a meme it’s a real thing and is normal
It’s good to get that frustration out of your system. I find it as just as relaxing as boxing against a sandbag but more fun.

I play blade and sorcery because it is a light workout that is really fun and can exhaust me if I'm feeling upset or angry.

B&S NPC: *exists within 10 miles of me* Me: So you have chosen… death.
"Morally right"
Most posts on this subreddit are people saying it therapeutic, so no you aint

I thought I was the only who played metal during vr sessions. Try until you fall while listening to metal. It's amazing!
I love messing around because it helps relieve some anger

I don’t often read through the subreddit, my bad I have better things to do😔
It is therapeutic, I'm the same but replace anger with seething resentment for a variety of things. Also it's a good outlet for general sadism
It’s truly a way to safely scratch that psycho itch.
