I guess so yeah

I had bought the game but haven't played it as yet so I wasn't sure what game with trucks you and @Patrik were talking about.

I think it's only Red Dead Redemption 2 that I have played recently where I have had to do this. San Andreas is another but I've never played that properly for hunger to actually become a problem for me.

GTA San Andres, was just like RDR2 in that regard. Skyrim is kinda similar although it is more related to the more you do something, the better you are (ex; running, for example).

i completely forgot about GTA SA even if i spent ton of time in it (since you can eat, lose weight, get muscles and even has a sex appeal there LOL)

Which game are you refering to ?

A lot of games have in game mechanics where you can feed your character to recover health etc. not necessarily vr

Can you make a brief list of such kind of game? I am yet to play such kind of games in history ever since I started gaming in the last 15 years.

Well, it's not a video game, it's a gadget, but... Tamagochi!!!😄

While I generally prefer RPGs that simplify things, my one exception is limb-based damage systems. Hit points, vitality, wound levels, etc are all just buckets of health with different names. But a limb-based system is much more visceral and tactical.

I was trying to think about games with a limb-based system but the only thing that came to my was wrestling games xD

RDR-2, Skyrim remains the best when it comes to feeling the reality scene in video games. Refilling the health of my character is marvelous, in order make em energetic to face the battles ahead. I never really played Skyrim so we'll, but my cameo was well enjoyed including the one from RDR-2.

That's where game developers performed to the highest occasion, building the games, and you feel they're just real. The act of feeding your character to regain or refill power bar back is commendable.

Man do you even read what you post, first of all how can skyrim be "best feeling the reality scene"  whatever that means, when you never played the game yourself. You don't need to eat in skyrim since your health regenerates over time, it's completely optional sure yes you can eat food/herbs to find out what positive or negative effect it has if you are into alchemy.

I mean no offence but whenever i read some of your posts i could swear you are either drunk as fuck or high out of your mind. Like the one above what is it supposed to mean exactly?
