Gaming's greatest unexplained super powers

The super powers we allow our game c🌱haracters to have so that our games are more interesting

They're totally super powers

They're totally super powers

And today, we pay homage to these abilities - the super powers of ℱgaming that represent the sacrifice we make every time we boot up a Call of Duty game: the sacr🌺ifice of realism for the sake of gameplay.

Slow motion

Slow motion

Examples: Max Payne, Dead to Rights, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Sleeping Dogs

Being able to slow down time randomly has been given several names. Sometim𓃲es it's called "Adrenaline," oth💧er times it's "Shoot Dodging," but no matter what name it's assigned, we all know what it is: that thing everyone decided was awesome after The Matrix came out.

Never needing to eat, sleep, pee, or fulfill any other mortal necessities

Never needing to eat, sleep, pee, or fulfill any other mortal necessities

Exa𒅌mples: Everything except The Sims and The Ship.

Link doesnও't poop once during his entire journey to save Hyrule from Gannon. Not once. Altair? He doesn't, either. Though some games give the option to eat, drink, sleep, or use the facilities, it's hardly🥀 ever actually needed, acting as a proxy to heal lost life or save instead of doing what it actually does: keep humans alive.

Swinging on a pole indefinitely

Swinging on a pole indefinitely

Examples: Prince of Persia, Enslaved, Tomb Raider

Acrobatic platformers were all the rage last-generation, with characters like The Prince and Lara Croft jumping from pole to platform to explore ancient crypts. 🎶Both games also allow their heroes to swing on poles... indefin🍬itely. Just spinning and spinning and spinning...

Regenerating health

Regenerating health

Examples: Nearly every game after 1999

This one sort of makes sense, at its core. If you're beat up, you can take a deep breath, relax for a few seconds, and head back into the battle. But when this concept is found in a shooter, where your character regularly gets shot in the face, our suspension of disbelief is tested - especially when the bullet-holes are𝄹 shown (Max Payne, we're looking at you).

Indestructible, immovable costumes and hair

Indestructible, immovable costumes and hair

Examples: Most adventure games, Nathan Drake's half-tucked sဣhirt

Some games show the character's outfits changing throughout the game. Others, though, treat the character models as🔴 untouchable effigies, with perfect hair and costumes that won't budge no matter how many bullets they soak, punches they take, or leaps they make.

Double jumping

Double jumping

Examples: Team Fortress 2, Devil May Cry, Super Sma🌟sh Bros.

Seriously, this is one you can go outside and try. Jump, and then without touching the ground or anything at all, jump again. You can't do it. It's not a thing. And yet, despite that, a huge amount of retro platformers incluജded the ability to jump and then to also jump again. Modern games do this less, and usually explain it, but sometimes they'll still throw it in without any justification out of what we assume is development habit, giving random characters the super human ability to jump whilst jumping.

Seeing around corners without looking

Seeing around corners without looking

Examples: All cover shooters, most stealth games that don🦩't give the characte⛎r secret agent tools

Nearly every third-person game gives the player the ability to see stuff that the in-game character's can't. Once cover is added in, this feature usefulness is improved tenfold, as the character is able to act on what the player can see. In stealth games the character ca♛n react to an oncoming guard that they couldn't possibly see, and in shooters it allows the player to blind-fire at enemies, taking them down without looking around the corner.

Respawning after death

Respawning after death

Examples: Nearly every game ever

Essentially any game that doesn't have perma-death or explain why characters are able to come back to life after dying has granted their characters with one of the most powerful superpowers of all: immortality. Dying and coming back to life - with the knowledge of what killed you - is absurdly pꦯowerful, and nearly every game ever made does it.

The ability to revive dying friends by tapping their shoulder

The ability to revive dying friends by tapping their shoulder

Examples: Gears of War, Left 4 Dead

Besides being able to ꦦcome back to life over and over again, the ability to resurrect allies in squad-based games is another feat of super heroism that has been appearing in more 👍and more games. We'll give magical syringes a pass, since we can assume that there's some sort of medical voodoo that allows a needle to heal bullet wounds, but when all it takes is "being helped up" or a slap on the shoulder, to bring someone back from the brink of death it's a little much.

Being completely invisible to enemies more than X feet away

Being completely invisible to enemies more than X feet away

Examples: Every MMORPG

The idea of "aggro" in MMORPGs sort of makes sense once the battle starts - of course enemies will focus on specific players over others. But the act of getting aggro has always meant walking SUPER close to enemies, mean💧ing there are two optionꦰs: every enemy has terrible vision, or the players are invisible, and don't become visible until they're right up next to the enemy. Neither makes that much sense, but we think the second is more likely.

Dual-wielding shotguns without breaking arms

Dual-wielding shotguns without breaking arms

Examp𝓀les: Call o✨f Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Marathon 2, Call of Juarez, Timesplitters

Firing a shotgun without holding it correctly could shatter your arms, or cause enough recoil to break your hand or nose. In case you're wondering, holding a shotgun with one hand isn't correct. Despite this, characters oft𓄧en hold two powerful guns and can not only fire them accurately without breaking their bones, but somehow reload them. Maybe they're holding the shells in their belly buttons.

Not shattering knuckles when using melee on objects/people

Not shattering knuckles when using melee on objects/people

Examples: Supꦬer Mario Bros., most games with melee

Ever punch someone? It hurts. Bad. And yet in many games, characters punch out dozens of people without breaking a sweat (or a finger). Wha💖t's more, Mario can punch stone blocks all day long without wounding himself. Talk about a superཧ power - he's essentially Hellboy with that fist.

Page 13 of 15

Super finger strength

Super finger strength

Ex♚amples: Assassin's Cree﷽d, Prince of Persia, Infamous, most games involving climbing

Holding on to a pull-up bar for a long time is really, really difficult. It takes massive upper-body strength, and is quite a workout in and of itself. Holding onto something by just your fingertips? Well, it's essentially impossible to do it like they do in video games, meaning they must have some sort of superhuma🐎n finger powers.
