I don't think violence and blood on rpg's or any other genre  is  a "must" formula for making a good game. But that's my view. Take OKAMI for example. Also... it really depends on the type (the main theme) of game the developer is making. So it is a very subjective occurrence. :P
I don't think rpg's need blood, you have to ecpect a little violence though. How else are you going to be the bad guys? The story to me is what makes an rpg great.
Oblivion needs blood. It dosen't have to be groteque and splatter all over the screen. It can be done tastefully. Like in Tenchu Kurenai, not to gruesome.

definitely not. games can be amazing without violence, yes fighting can happen, but ti doesnt need to be gruesome. im not saying blood and gore flying all over the place isnt awesome, though
Why does a gave need to have gore to be great? Surely gameplay, sound, graphics and such are far more necessary that blood and gore. Excessive gore is probably more likely to put of some gamers than attract them (though I could be wrong, as 50 Cent sold binloands). RPGS have about as much as violence as they really need.
Gore isn't required to have a good game (look at I love Katamari, or Prince of Persia)...However, it's something that makes some games better...Games like Scarface...I think Scarface is a good game, but if I shoot someone and all they do if fall over, it takes away from the experience...it needs the blood and gore.
I think violence is "needed" only in some type of games, like God of War, for instance. In RPG´s, some confrontation is necessary, but we don´t need lots of bloodshed to taste it, do we? Videogames need enemies to beat, and the beating itself implies violence, no matter how much that violence is detailed or not
