What are some games where I know what the HP bar canonically stands for?
>>345167421
What if I just say "Health?"
Life
>>345167421
the Mario RPGs I think?
>>345167421
>hurt points
I bet you fucks don't even THACO
HP Points
>>345167421
>tfw heart points
>not health portion
> hit points
So its the amount of points I can hit people with?
>>345167421
I know it's always called "hit points", but it's been engraved into my brain as "health points".
>>345167808
>no heart pupils

It's husk protection you plebs
>>345167421
Ouch bar
>not saying "life"

I don't care if it doesn't make sense, it sounds cool as balls.
>>345167770
uh, THAC'0'
>>345167421
>health points
what the fuck? it has never meant that
Who the fuck calls them hit points? That implies that your combat is dependent on this stat.
>>345167421
>There are people on this board right now who unironically call them something other than Humanity Partitions
>>345167421
You mean officially not canonically.
>life bar
>not main character faces
>not Harm Percentage
Plebs, the lot of you.

I just call it a "Health Bar" or "meter" or "Health Resource" or whatever seems the most appropriate for the scenario.
>>345168001
>not just calling it thaco for short
I've even seen a character in a really great comic called Thaco.
I just call it health.
>>345168543
I love doritos locos thacos

Holy Power
>>345168076
No, I think he means that the health bar/hit gauge/heart meter has a canon explanation for what it is.
>>345167421
HP Points.
You're all retarded, the abbreviations has its roots in America and its health restoring products.

It's Hope Points because when you run out you don't die you just succumb to despair.

Health HP Points of Life Damage
>>345169639
HOW DARE YOU ASSUME WHAT HEALTH IDENTIFIES AS
JUST BECAUSE IT GOES DOWN WHEN YOUR PLAYER CHARACTER GETS HURT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S HEALTH, IT MIGHT BE HEALTH-TO-MANA TRANS, OR STAMINA-KIN
YOU SHITLORDS HAVE NO RIGHT TO OPPRESS STATUS-MEASURING APPARATI LIKE THIS, I'M LITERALLY TRIGGERED
>>345169662
