How do y’all prefer to have Low HP communicated to you?

[Jaguar93]

Visually with Red or Bloody Vignette/Outlines

Or Audibly

 

[BBG]

Depends on the genre, but in a realistic fps I want the blood in eye, reduced speed, a limp, etc. until healed

Audibly or via vibration but both of those are hella over the top. All u need is the character making a comment or breathing heavy type shyt. But obviously it’s like this because of focus testing and the average gamer being dumb as shyt. So it is what it is

 

[GrudgeBooty]

A fine question! Fine indeed! I like a change in the character portrait or the character's stance for RPG's. Actually, it's not so much that I like that, but that's the way low HP is typically communicated in RPGs.

 

[OneDeep]

Visibly injured
Covered in blood
Bruised
Heavily breathing

Somewhat like what BG3 & Expedition 33 does

I like when the screen turns red and you can her the heart pounding sound. It gives you a greater sense of urgency.

I hate that shyt.

 

[Illuminatos]

Anything but the screen turning red and obscuring my vision. I can’t stand that shyt.
