The health potions taste so bad that your character cannot bring themselves to drink more than one a minute. Imagine if you had to drink two of those Code Red Mountain Dews in the span of sixty seconds.

I know E.Y.E. does this but what other games do?

what are some games with invisible cooldowns that leads to consequences if you don't intentionally hold back
Terraria gives you a 50seconds debuff, regardless of how powerful the potion is.

I wish moves on cooldown would still activate and cause some fumble animation so that people who just mash button would get fucked
>>333615735
I remember in Rift the in-game macros when you would just cast a bunch of abilities in a row would just pick the first one that's off cooldown; which resulted in some classes whose ability use is just a priority queue turning into literally spamming 1 button to do an optimized ability rotation for their class.

Every modern MMO has a 1min cd on potions and it's annoying as shit. Especially because potions are usually shit for healing.
>>333623051
Then you gotta add side effects based off the quality of said potions, are you using a consistant brand or formula or are you just chugging every red bottle you find on the floor in a 300 year old dungeon.
No cooldowns on health potions are silly, it effectively turns your character's actual health irrelevant (only get as much health to survive the biggest possible hit) because you can just chug potions forever.
I never got into ARPGs partly because of that (though I know they have some ways to balance around that).
>>333623627
just give a easily interruptible potion drinking animation, plus limited quantities
lot of ways to go about it depending on what you're trying to do
>Played Flyff back in the day
>No pot CDs
>Could literally stock your inventory with health cookies, cast a spell that reflects twice the damage you get hit with back at the attacker, put all yur stat points in HP and kill shit 50 levels above you

This needs to be used more, Health Potions are medicine and should be treated as such.
Only one I can remember off the top of my head is FFXI where you would get a status effect that prevents you from chugging potions. The problem was it lasted for like 30 minutes to an hour
>>333624746
That would be difficult to do for certain genre of games though, not impossible but if all games had to do cooldowns on health aids, games like diablo would be really different.
You could probably ven diagram all the games and how they use health restoration items.

I know Mabinogi has a form of potion poisoning, although unless you are purposely spamming low level pots, you should not trigger it

I'm so glad that was changed. Quickheal now automatically uses the most potent potion in your inventory. The devs seem to really love figuring out quality of life changes.
>>333614757
>Try to overdose on health pots
>Can't get the cap off

What the fuck? There is quick heal in terraria?
I played like 100 hours of it and never knew

H key.
Did you know about the Smart Cursor? Where you hit CTRL and a yellow highlight will appear while you're mining, hammering walls or placing them?
>>333613706
>Can't use too many at once because you get full

Bags were always full of potions and nothing else.

Because clickspamming is shallow as shit and any gameplay balanced around it will be boring schlock?
Even combo-based games have cooldowns on individual attacks, because it takes time to build the combo to certain attacks and exit the previous combo to reach it again.
>>333629976
>cooldowns on attacks
Why does real life do this?
>>333626652
There was one I played where HP potions worked over time but the healing buff only stacked up to 5 times.

In GTAV, if you run out of stamina, you can still sprint, but it slowly drains your health.

No, it's just Shindol's latest work about a girl who gets corrupted and addicted to drugs, knocked up, and fatally beaten while full-term. That image is from one of the last few panels before shedies from the internal bleeding of getting her pregnant stomach stomped on, she puts on glasses and reminds herself of what she looked like before she went down the slut path

If potions are common and not weak as shit I use them over healing spells when possible to conserve MP, especially out of battle

It's like you actually enjoy using spells or something.

It really pains me because the art is good, and I want to like it, but that ending is depressing as fuck.

Poison is all the colors though, the amount of poisonous substances that are neither purple nor green should be proof enough.
If anything it should bewhite
