@ColtClassic: "brain dead take, how would it be super lame when we have a stamina bar already. I wanna know if i should risk my ass with poison or not and if I just got one shot from a shovel out of no where. It would probably just be a circle like the stamina bar, would blend right in with the other elements."
Whether or not something kills you depends mostly on
1) where on your character's body you've been hit
2) how hard you were hit
Here is why having a healthbar would be a completely "braindead" take.
If we have healthbars, people will see that their health is low and they will spend the entire rest of the match running away.
That will completely change how this game is played.
Once again. NO HEALTHBARS.
This isn't Street Fighter FFS.
