Trying to define hit points in any remotely restrictive/simulationist way is /like/ writing midi-chlorians into your campaign, sure.Wait, so hit points are .... midi-chlorians???????

Maybe not Dark Souls or WoW games, which are deliberately based around some D&D tropes.In any case, I believe the answer to all these questions is no -- video gamers don't care about these things; they just accept hit points for what they are, a condition of the game, and have fun within those parameters. Only tabletop players spend hours ringing their hands and their minds trying to "make sense" of hit points and what they truly represent.
So... are they crazy?
...or are we?![]()
