Tekken 8 footage is being slowly released on a drip feed, hoping for the return of a side-scrolling beat-em-up mode like Tekken 3 where I can eat a rotisserie chicken off the ground.

It's always amusing to imagine the Dovahkiin shoving thirty cheese wheels down their mouthhole, but in practice it's really stupid to play.

Years later in its most recent patch Witcher 3 made it impossible to use most consumables underwater, with the reasoning of “Hold on, maybe that’s silly.” No change to land Slimering though.

It was explicit in Deus Ex, they even had special food in-universe that your nano machines/cyborg enhancements could convert most efficiently to fuel your augmentations.

Silently snacking in an air vent to help seal your bullet holes.

It doesn't work; you eat and you feel like your HP is going up, but if you try to use it again you'll find it's still hosed.

My personal favorite is finding food on the ground in side scrollers/metroidvanias and it gives you health instead of food poisoning

First time I noticed how weird this was as a kid—playing Turtles in Time and finding boxes of pizza lying around in the New York sewer.

Link shoving 20 apples down his throat in the middle of a death battle with Ganon, or the Dragonborn swallowing an entire wheel of cheese like a snake eating a pig as Alduin bears down upon him.

At least potions have the excuse of being literally magic.

This seems like the kind of game with political screeds in the patch notes. Taking a "neutral" stance on a conflict of that nature with that name isn't neutral at all.

I'd still play it if half of the players died in the lobby from dysentery before the match started. And if you had to pass a gangrene check at the end of a match if you took damage or your score is wiped from the board.
