what's your favorite games with bleed mechanics?
how realistic is it?
i like bleed in elden ring & nightreign but it's not too realistic

Real life. God got annoyed with the female build and made their ovulation painful

I never really understood why bleed works the way it does in souls games, but i suppose it is unique.
Feels like bleed should be doing health and stamina damage

says the person offtopic posting in the thread

realism is antithetical to good game design
burn, bleed, and poison are all common status effects that could reasonably be explained as damage over time
your options for differentiating DOTs are
>DPS
>Duration
>Max stacks applied at once (if you are already bleeding can you bleed more, and if so how many stacks can be applied at once)
>self-stacking interaction (do all bleed stacks tick down at once increasing DPS, or do you just bleed for longer)
>Cleansing interaction (can you get rid of your on fire status by entering water? can you get rid of your bleed status by healing? etc)
if burn, bleed, and poison are all just middling DPS middling duration non-stacking uncleanseable DOTs it's a bit boring. even with typed status resists and buildup like in elden ring you kinda need additional differentiation to justify having so many status effects
I think it's cool how elden ring bleed is an instant proc because it gives it a lot of character over poison, but poison is so painfully slow on monsters its hardly worth using as a player

Just gameplay variety, I suppose.
Realistically it should be a DoT with a stamina debuff but you already have poison which tends to be the general DoT effect in most games but then again, you do have 2 different poison types on top of scarlet rot in ER.

I feel like bleed's burst damage would actually make more sense for poison since poison can cause instant death while bleeding out is always slow, so if I were to make a soulslike or some other action game with statuses, I would definitely make bleed a DoT with stamina debuff and poison an instant burst of damage.
