I should also be very clear in that they aren't "wrong" for disliking the alternative health/harm systems I talk about, but in how they think they are implemented or affect gameplay. I'm totally fine if folks prefer HP, less fine when they talk with authority about things they clearly don't know.

It does make me laugh when a developer goes really far out of their way to replace hit points and manages to walk full circle back to hit points. This enemy can sustain 21 "conditions" before it is incapacitated.

In the off chance you want to check the video out, here it is...

Though, I would kindly ask that you do not engage with or be unpleasant toward any of those negative comments. If you do, I'll hide all you from the channel. Be nice, even if they weren't. <3

This is great! Two other systems that deal with "health" and "damage" in interesting ways are Harnmaster (specific wounds and injuries) and Crown & Skull (equipment and skill attrition).

The idea of no HP in a TTRPG is great. But can I have an HP bar in real life so I can see just how close to death I am?
