So i think it would be cool if the player's armor started falling of or have scorch marks and maybe bruises!!! Like say your player is at half health! He could have a chunk of his helmet missing, his sword could be dirty, and he could be weezing and looking like hes a bout to collapse! But of course in the end he would be back to normal. On the other hand, it would be cool seeing a guy with bruises at the ah!
If it didn't kill the limited memory this game uses, that would be fun to watch.
