I don't care about his debate, but fuck the faggots who call MP 'mana.'
>>719512941I'm from Spain, HP Will forever be "hijo puta"
>>719513031This."Health Points" perfectly describes what it is."Hit Points" is way more vague

depends on the mechanicsif getting hit costs 1 out of your pool of X points, so you can get hit X times before dying, those are hit pointsif getting hit deals an amount of damage between 1 and Y to your total health pool of X points, those are health points
>>719513236MP = mens' penises
>>719513236It's mana points so yeah
>>719513447no, it's magic points

Hit points if every enemy always takes away 1 point, health points otherwise.
>>719512941I'm playing Rogue Trader and it has the worst version, HP is called "wounds" so having wounds is good, the more wounds you have the less wounded you are. Also a separate system of "injuries" and "traumas" and also "temporary wounds" with convoluted rules for stacking. Also all my characters have more wounds than their max wounds for some reason

>>719512941MP = my mana is low HP = my health is low

Hit points if the max is less than 36, health points if it's in the hundreds, HP if it's in the thousands.
>>719512941it's just healthit's never health points
>>719513046me on the far right
>>719512941Health It just works
>points>barfucking retards
>>719512941If health doesnt affect characters general performance, hit points. If it does than health points. No i dont consider purely stat based differences as performance but actual movement and attack speed stuff
>"health pool"
>>719513812Isn't this how the actual tabletop works? I vaguely remember units having multiple wounds.It sounds weird but it's clearly short for "number of wounds you can take". We're used to video games calling it health but if you stop to think it's also weird, health almost always refers to a lack of illness, if you break your leg or get shot you wouldn't say "I'm unhealthy". But we're just used to calling it health
I get that health red because blood, but why is magic blue?
>>719514151Why would stat based differences not matter and how is attack speed not a stat?I mean I get that for an action type game, as in the physical in-world movement or the speed with which you can attack in real time would matter. But if you generally consider e.g. attack speed as "performance" in the general case, then in a stat-based RPG you'd consider it for an attack speed debuff but not any other debuff?
>>719512941Literally and figuratively no one here calls them "health points"
>>719514684because green is poison
just say hp

Hit points. This isn't particularly ambiguous, and is clearly spelled out in the player's handbook for every edition of D&D I've ever bothered to look at.

>>719514684you've lived a very sheltered life if you've never seen magic leaking out of someone's chakras, it's horrific
If you suddenly get a heart attack, do you think "oh shit I didn't have enough hit and now I'm dying" or "oh shit I wasn't healthy enough"

>>719515824That's a Save vs. Death roll, has nothing to do with hit points.
>>719515824That's pretty stupid. I
>>719515824>do you think "oh shit I didn't have enough hit and now I'm dying"That's word for word what I thought when I had my last heart attack
>>719514832I think poison is purple.

>>719517019>you get mugged, you get shot, you're almost dead but you stand up and say "lol I have 1 hit point left retard"Again something that's actually happened to me except I got stabbed instead of shot. Try harder

Plenty of objects have HP bars therefore it is Hit Points. A metal does not possess health for example.

>>719512941Health points makes more sense but hit points is what it be. Just like "game master" makes more sense but if you aren't called "dungeon master" I'm screaming woke and informing all of xitter that you're destroying the white race
