You became an enemy of whatever Civilization those towns belonged to, when you attacked the people. Anyone from that Civ will now attack you on sight.

If it does not render the game unplayable, it always is a feature. Some features are more convenient than others.

If you kill someone from a town (even if you drag them out into the middle of nowhere first), the other people in the town will want to kill you. The fact they know about the kill when they didn't see it is unrealistic, but otherwise it makes sense.

Same for if you wipe out an entire town - kinda hard for people not to find out about that...

Unless you killed every witness.

What about trading caravans that come along later and dicover a entire town inhabited by corpses?

Drag the bodies in somebody's basement, or if it has a temple, and they maybe worship something that involved a lava pool, throw it in the pool. Hey, it'd look like a mass-sacrifice/suicide. <.<

oh yeah I had that happen but only with a goblin companion and elf babies.
long story and a trip back short it lead to a battle killing tons of elves one thing is that I didn't kill squat and most of the kills went to my dwarf strangler and hammer goblin... oh and the local humans and dwarfs who abandon their homes due to they were wreck by semibeasts. it was epic and left every one except the goblins homeless.
