I don't think any injury/wellness system can top Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. In addition to all manner of possible injuries and illnesses and ways to cure them, you have to worry about vitamin deficiencies as well. The volume of food you consume compared to the available volume in your stomach matters. It's that detailed. I'd also like to give Caves of Qud a shoutout because you can regrow your severed body parts in that game through several methods, and you can cannibalize your own body parts if you're starving. There's also a special achievement in that game for wearing your severed face on your face.

Don't forget Tao Feng. Limb damage alert > Limb damage danger! > LIMB DAMAGE!
Really underrated street fighter type game where you can repeatedly deal blows to your opponent's limbs. If you don't vary your attacks enough or if they don't avoid those attacks enough. that limb can be damaged and will severely weaken their kicks if it's their leg, or their punches if it's their arm. You can heal mid-fight by using Chi, but you have to try not to straight up lose the fight cuz you're focused on healing.

Arma 3's Ace mod goes into excruciating detail with injuries too. When you get hit your character is in pain, which requires morphine, but if you're bleeding the morphine will leak out of you. Plus it lowers your heart rate, requiring epinephrine, or else you might never wake up the next time you get shot. Medics also need to carry saline to refill your body with blood and fluids if you lose too much. It is hardcore, but very fun at times.

New one for the list, Starfield. You can get broken or dislocated limbs. If you get a broken or dislocated leg and you take a movement debuff, your weight limit is reduced, and moving consumes stamina. For those who don't know if you run out of oxygen and build up co2 bar you take damage. Unfortunately you can't just cram food or healing items, you need to find a doctor.

I'd recommend The Long Dark as well. Survival sim with a heavy emphasis on realism in that you're literally just trying to survive the Canadian winter. While the variety of injuries isn't as in depth as some of the entries here, the addition of temperature, hunger/thirst and rest management can complicate conditions quickly, making injuries extremely undesirable.

Man i gotta say, i play a game called StoneShard and it has a really good injury system with lots of healing items, you can use alchool too, pain, morale, sanity and other stuff and its really good. Its really hard to get into it but once you get in the grove its so good. gameranx you guys should take a look at it.

Interesting how Bushido Blade seems to be a sort of early arena fighter; I guess that's one of the things that makes it stand out from even a game like Hellish Quart even though its injury system is basically identical. Bushido Blade really seemed to be ahead of its time, and I think I'll have to emulate it.

thought maybe 7 Days to Die would be on here or at least get an honorable mention.
one of the worst injuries in that game is a sprain or broken leg; running or jumping while you have that prolongs the time it takes to heal and you move slower while it's active.

Escape from tarkov. Man, light bleed heavy bleed, fractures, tremors, food and water, concussion. Each has to have a different item. Like a tourniquet won t be helpful on a light bleed. And getting a limb black affects gun sway and accuracy or how you walk.

No one ever knows about Bushido blade! . Me, my dad, and my uncle along with some of their friends would hold basically tournaments at the house on the weekends. So many great memories playing that game. I miss those days so much!

A small but cool detail in Bushido Blade - When you lose and you select continue (like in Tekken, you play the match again, but your character is bandaged. And the more you lose, the more bandaged your character is.

Deadliest warrior game did have a fun zombie mode where your characters could survive until they're just a leg and their crotch. And Joan of arc could still kick enemies off the map being just a pair of legs.

And here is FF16 where you use a tornado on an enemy, set them on fire and burn them to a crisp while smacking them 40 times with a sword and they shrug it off thanking you for going easy on them

Prey is such an awful game, the fact people think about it when they hear the name now instead of the FPS that invented portals in gaming(the one with the native american dude) is sad

Great video but an honorable-mention would have to be Resident Evil because nothing is worse than walking around being really slow and injured looking for a herb.

I can't believe Fear and Hunger made one of these lists. BTW it gets a lot more sadistic than losing your arms and legs, but it's also a really great but difficult game.

I clicked on this video thinking, rimworld would probably be a good mention. You should have talked about food poisoning, that is the most annoying injury i have faced.
