Sifu’s unique age mechanic would benefit Marvel's Wolverine

With so little information about Marvel's Wolverine other than its harsh tone, fans have been wondering how Insomniac would balance a Logan-centric game. The hero can practically heal from anything because his healing factor allows him to rejuvenate his body no matter how much damage it receives.

While this would undoubtedly be entertaining to play with, it's impossible to picture the game being even moderately challenging given that the protagonist is immortal.

As a result, Insomniac will have to develop a unique approach to increase difficulties without taking away one of Logan's most recognizable abilities, and Sloclap's Sifu might be the key.

The age mechanic in Sifu is a big part of the game's difficulty, but it's also what makes it so distinctive. Players begin the game at the age of 20, and with each death, they grow older.

Every ten years, a portion of their necklace will shatter, and once it is completely broken, they will perish. While Wolverine has lived for far over a century, a precise replica of the age mechanism would be impossible; the principle might be employed in its entirety.

Logan may have been afflicted with a toxin that weakens his healing factor the more he uses it early in Marvel's Wolverine tale. Players will be able to experience the full force of playing as Wolverine early in the game, shrugging off any damage and fighting on. However, overusing the healing factor can effectively kill Wolverine since players will eventually be unable to recover.

Both ways are viable, as this might cover the whole game or be reset after each level, depending on the difficulty settings. It would be a pity not to be able to use Marvel's Wolverine regeneration since it might be a lot of fun to see him recuperate from
