Sifu Character Aging Mechanic - Here's a Look From Age 20 to 75

What makes Sifu stand out aside from its combat is the Sifu character aging mechanic. Check it out in action here and in a screenshot.

Looks ok but no wrinkles and hair goes from black to blue nd with gray highlights 🤷🏿no balding trust me a man hair kept tied like that for years will make you go bald just ask my big brother with his crown bald spot

So far so good. Had mine up for years. I think genetics might play a small role as well.

[SDuck]

genetics no so much. More like diet and lifestyle.

[Flewid638]

lmao its genetics. Besides, The Rock & Statham are winning.

So, they change the hair color and length... revolutionary!

[henbayward]

Yeah, seriously. Big woop.

No hairline receding? Looks like idealized aging to me.

[SDuck]

for a character who keeps himself healthy and fit to accomplish his crusade, I think hair health wouldn't be an issue

[HeliosHex]

If only we could all age as gracefully

So this is a self defeating mechanic isn’t it?

It would be better if you just died. What the hell is the point of prolonging the person’s life if they become older, slower and a lot worse in a fight?

Do you get up straight away to the same amount of people who defeated you or what? If you start back older In a new room of people, then why bother? Put a loading screen there instead.

Why don't you read up about it, like you're literally commenting about a game you don't even understand.

The ageing mechanic is just a visual representation of play style mechanics. It's really no different to Dark Souls having you turn hollow which halves your life but giving you benefits.

Doesn't seem like it does much. Your hair just gets longer and it fades to grey. The hairline doesn't change at all, and the skin seems entirely unaffected. Not trying to be negative but it seems like a pointless feature. I figured it would have a bit more depth than that.
