[2022] sprained leg or broken leg rework ?

So basically you want no consequences. Just turn on debug mode and turn on god mode to heal it, save yourself the trouble of jumping off a cliff.

You don't have to 'wait'; Just play the game. Avoid sprinting and jumping constantly and you'll still recover over time, and be aware that you are slightly slower and compensate for that in your fights.

You haven’t presented any problems with the leg injury mechanics. All you’ve said is A) how you don’t like waiting so long, despite the counterpoint that you don’t have to wait; and B) how a different mechanic, dying, is too easy.

The first step towards persuading someone to fix something would be to demonstrate that it’s broken in the first place.
