We all know classics, but what are some recent games where your lifebar gets visibly longer when your max HP increases?
I personally didn't like how in Atomato when your HP doubles your lifebar only becomes ~50% or so longer.

Zelda is a stupid system. Your life works in quarters, and an enemy takes like 5 damage per sword swing or whatever. It doesn't scale up

It's not even visual lifebar, it's just a set of hearts.
I don't like zelda in general and its ui in particular.
I'm also not a huge fan of musous, but they got action game UI just right.

You mean on bosses?
I think DFO takes it to the most absurd levels, to the point of showing actual number because lifebar runs out of colors and recycle them.

Some enemies take more than a quarter by attack. It should scale that way, but sadly, usually only bosses do that.

I'm a big fan of the first one, and while I picked up the sequel in a humble bundle, I've never played it. The DLC shit really rubbed me the wrong way, and from what I've read about the new drop-based weapon system, that just doesn't seem like it'd fit that format very well.

I like it when the health bar is all stylistic but it has easy to read numbers attached. It's safe to go with simple to allow the player to actually read it and is not a must to make it as cool as possible.

Are you fucking stupid or do you think all 3D action platformers are GoW clones? Specially when GoW itself barely fits that definition? War's movement and controls are nothing like Kratos'.

No shit, so is Castlevania LoS, but they are all really fucking different from Darksiders 1 or 2. Darksiders 2 is shit because of how different it was from 1. Darksiders is more like Jak 3 or Ratchet and Clank.

If anything, it's a 3d Zelda clone with a tiny bit of Devil May Cry combat mixed in. 1 was a good game on its own, 2 is a tedious piece of shit.

La-Mulana has this interesting system, where you can get energy pickups to fill an additional bar that refills your health when reaches it's maximum, but upgrading you HP capacity also increases how much you have to fill the extra bar for the health refills.

Lifebars are a good indicator that the game will be shallow. I'm thankful for having such an easily identifiable filter.

What the fuck are you talking about? This couldn't be further from the truth.
They're action games but that's about as far as the similarities go.
God of war doesn't have:
Fast travel
Overworlds that can be returned to
Mounts
Randomly generated loot including weapons
Levelling
Optional dungeons and bosses
Any non-linearity
Vendors
Skill trees with unlockable abilities
