StaceyPowers Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Some games display damage points on the screen when you fight (i.e. Dragon Age). But I never find this very informative; it just seems like visual noise to me. An enemy’s health bar is useful to see, but I don’t understand the point of the numbers. Does anyone find them useful?

killamch89 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 I don't mind it but as you said, the health bar is far more useful to me when playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Some games need to offer that level of precise information, some don't. For action games and shooters I'd call it unnessery. Like @StaceyPowers said, it's just pointless visual clutter. For strategic RPS's like a Final Fantasy game, it can be necessary. Still, it has been an unwelcome trend in recent years for games to flood UI's with damage points, health points, hit points, shit points, power point presentaions and all sorts of garbage. Make UI's detailed if you must, but be smart about it and keep them clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
