Balrog rips his shirt in half when he wins, then he has a perfectly fine shirt on at the start of the next round. What is this, some kind of magical shirt?

Doesn't this actually happen all the time in Fist of the North Star and some characters even comment on it?

Imagine it really worked like that. San Andreas style. There would be fast food places all over battlefields. They would probably become the strongholds you take over from enemies.

explosions, e.g.:

grenades having a tiny blast radius. like in Return to Castle Wolfenstein. I swear only Syphon Filer got it right: if you could see the grenade, you were dead.

rocket launcher rockets that travel like 2 miles an hour, like that one on Perfect Dark.

This is one of those "it depends" things. An HVAR is faster than a bullet but a bullet is faster than a M9 rocket launcher.

Of course in video games that have such a thing, the HVAR is usually slower than a bullet. I don't know how many do. Maybe just Battlefield?

on the subject of projectiles:

arrows always fly perfectly straight and don't arch

BotW is one of the only games I've played where you have to actually account for the arrow's trajectory

I'd add the opposite as well. When your HP wont recover no matter how long you stand idle unless you use a restorative ability and item, or rest at a inn.

People can heal naturally even if it's slow as nails.

Another is roleplaying games that punish you for every evil choice. Sorry but sometimes it pays to be bad and do bad things.

Know what annoys people more? Moves that actually do take your whole team out from full health in one move. It's a situation where you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. The only solution to not piss anyone off would be to never introduce super insane moves like it in the first place. Do you really want that?

So you puck the option where it never exist in the first place. That's cool. I personally like over the top shit and don't need it to be realistic at the same time. If you can pull off both, great. But there's a place for this stuff too imo. Not everything gotta be so serious. Especially in a ps1 game
