Everything Fades	comment	In video game land, things that are dropped or changed about the environment often have a habit of vanishing into thin air after a certain time — they might evaporate, disintegrate, blink in and out of existence, crumble to dust which disappears, etc. You can turn a room into a grisly scene of carnage, or have enemies drop vast amounts of healing items and powerups, and return five minutes later to find the room as pristine as when you first entered, even down to smashed or shot-up parts of the environment having repaired themselves; or if you stand there long enough, you can actually watch the corpses and powerups fade away. There are three key reasons for this. The main one is that keeping track of all the dead people, body parts and blood stains, dropped weapons, healing items, and bullet holes throughout every part of the environment the player has been in requires an increasing amount of memory — at least unless the game heavily restricts the player's ability to backtrack — with little to no practical effect on gameplay. Another is that these objects could become actual obstacles that impede the player's progress — in free-roaming games, you could potentially find yourself blocked off by insurmountable piles of corpses, overturned furniture, gutted vehicles, and so on. And finally, for powerups and cash specifically, this provides an additional source of difficulty and pressure on the player, encouraging them to rush forwards to pick things up before they disappear and making them weigh this against the danger involved. Occasionally, the game meets you halfway by having bodies disappear while leaving behind any useful weapons or items the character was carrying. But even those items sometimes may disappear after a short while, an unrealistic feature common in old Beat Em Ups to keep players moving briskly. For corpses, this is more common than it used to be since enemy characters in games are now almost exclusively complex 3D models with highly-textured surfaces and built-in Ragdoll Physics. Earlier games such as Marathon or Wolfenstein 3-D, where the enemies were low-resolution 2D sprites, had the ability to leave everything the player killed on the screen for their personal satisfaction without negatively affecting gameplay. Conversely, for console games, and especially for powerups and useful items, this has become more rare and is now mostly associated with "retro" games; in early console games, making those disappear was simply necessary because not enough memory existed to retain them. Some games even have "corpse stay time" or "bullet decals" as a changeable setting in the options menu, for players with high-end computers. Another variant is where the corpses stay while you're there to see it but vanish when you move away. The more plot-relevant a character is, the less likely they are to disappear this way, while Respawning Enemies are almost always gone quickly to avoid them piling up. Compare and contrast with Disappears into Light or No Body Left Behind, when deceased characters vanish not because of space constraints, but due to plot reasons, and Fading Away, where the fading happens before the character has died and does due to acknowledged in-universe causes.

Everything Fades / int_11fd7982	comment	The Metroid Prime Trilogy has a few variations. Smaller enemies will typically explode when defeated, with the bits evaporating. Larger enemies will go through a Ragdoll Physics animation, then disappear. When you kill an enemy with the game's fire-based beam (Plasma Beam for Prime, Light Beam for Echoes, and Plasma or Nova Beam for Corruption), they will completely burn up into black dust. Meanwhile, anything killed by a Metroid will become a fragile husk, which turns to dust at the slightest provocation; this last one is used to creepy effect in Corruption, when you find a derelict starship filled with such bodies.

Everything Fades / int_14d341dc	comment	Cryptic's Star Trek Online is much the same on the ground; bodies disappear after a short time of lying around. In fact, bodies that have not yet faded are Only Mostly Dead and can be revived by a player or a medical-type enemy. Player bodies disappear when they respawn. In space play, all ships explode when killed and only some, like Borg cubes, will leave behind wreckage. Even then the wreckage isn't solid and will eventually disappear. They manage to avert another common aspect of the "mechanical enemies disappear by exploding" by making the explosions from destroyed ships actually dangerous — the explosion from the aforementioned Cube can easily destroy the player along with it if they're too close.

Everything Fades / int_16d66e9a	comment	Franko: The Crazy Revenge is a case of a beat'em up game that averts this, with the corpses of defeated enemies remaining on the floor until they'd get scrolled off the screen. Oddly enough the next game from the Franko developers, Doman: Sins of Ardan plays this completely straight with the corpses blinking out after some time. For this time the developers apparently have preferred the corpses to be displayed more "convincingly" (as in the corpses obscuring the characters that aren't below them in y-axis) rather than being simply "flat" on the surface.note Like how Franko has the corpses be essentially "painted" onto the background in memory

In Dragon Age: Inquisition, lootable materials will remain behind after the corpses dissolve, represented by a pile of material (for human opponents), a ribcage (for creatures), or, in the case of dragons, a giant skull.

Everything Fades / int_1acf3832	comment	No One Lives Forever, a '60s spy movie pastiche with a female lead, issues a special body-dissolving powder with the gear, requiring the player to actually get close to a victim's body to dispose of it. According to in-game exposition, Cate Archer's slight frame was considered inadequate for stuffing bodies in lockers. In the sequel she was suddenly strong enough to carry bodies around, though slowly. Ironically, though, bad guys in the sequel carried the body-dissolving powder themselves and would use it before searching for the culprit. The options menu (at least in the first game) lets you enable instant fade-away, so rather than having to use the corpse-remover, it just makes them fade away.

These times were wildly different as enemy wyverns and dragons will take minutes to fade while pesky raptors would vanish in mere seconds. This could become aggravating for the player because taking the time to carve dead monsters would result in acquiring new items so fighting a group of raptors often resulted in a player missing half of his or her potential carves.

When a wounded knight stumbles into the feast hall, he collapses and simply blinks out of existence in the same manner most of the enemies do. Strangely, numerous other knight and enemy corpses can be found throughout the game, and only enemies your party kills will fade.

Everything Fades / int_1d45e6aa	comment	In zOMG!, as in most RPGs, all enemies fade away after death. Some have a justifying animation (Gramsters for instance, collapse into dust, while Predi-Pups attempt to blow themselves up), while others simply collapse and vanish. This is somewhat justified by most of the enemies being composed of G'hi. Strangely, even the endgame enemies (a majority of which are not G'hi based) fade. Though in the case of the Labtechs, it's possible they simply went to respawn, as their death animation is similar to the "Dazed" animation for most player characters. It still doesn't explain how an entire Giant Robot just disappears, pilot included, after you defeat it. But then again, you get teleported to the Developer's Room immediately after killing it, so you don't actually get to see what happens to it's remains.

After half a day or so, the body is visibly rotten, and crows peck at the corpse. Your mercs will make comments when seeing these corpses. (Everything from 'Oh my god, that is so revolting!' to 'Will you look at that! Hey, when do we eat?') As well, the crows fly away if you get close, or you can shoot at them for target practice (or if your merc is really good at sneaking, sneak up to them and punch them). After a few days, the corpse disappears, presumably rotting away to nothing. No sign of the skeletons, though. As well, soldiers killed inside a building just disappear rather than rotting.

In most games, assuming one has battle animations enabled, they'll even fade twice - once on the battle screen, then again immediately thereafter when you return to the map screen. The same even carries over to most cutscenes, and instances where the body of a deceased person remains to be interacted with are quite rare. The characters still talk as though the deceased individual(s)' bodies are there, though.

Everything Fades / int_291e9857	comment	Zigzagged in Dark Souls. Bosses, player characters, and particularly large enemies fade away in a shimmer of light when killed, and player characters leave a bloodstain containing their souls and humanity before respawning at the last bonfire they used. Most normal-sized enemies don't fade, however, and just flop onto the ground where they can be hilariously ragdolled around. Loot acquisition also varies depending on whether the corpse fades or not. If it does, the loot can be picked up off the ground (or in the case of bosses and non-respawning enemies, it's automatically put into the player's inventory,) but if it doesn't, it needs to be directly collected from the corpse (which can occasionally lead to situations where the corpse falls off a ledge into a Bottomless Pit and takes its loot with it.)

If you don't absorb them, they'll eventually fly somewhere else in the room and turn back into monsters. Even then there's an exception to that exception, as human corpses on the Main Deck of the station can be revived by these parasites, and after shooting them the body will crumble and release the parasite again - and those remains will stay there until another parasite takes control of them again.

If it does generate a corpse, said corpse lingers for a while before rotting completely away and disappearing. Some corpses are automatically poisonous to eat, most of the rest become poisonous if you wait too long to chow down. Any gear the critter was carrying gets left behind; if you don't clean up after yourself, NetHack dungeons tend to get a bit cluttered.

Everything Fades / int_41d79599	comment	The Dark Forces Saga dealt with it in different ways. Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II and its Expansion Pack Mysteries of the Sith had bodies that wouldn't vanish for some time. Based on the id Tech 3 engine, Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy had bodies that would vanish almost the instant you turned your back (mechanical enemies just exploded). It was kind of disappointing, when Jedi Knight's predecessor, Dark Forces, being sprite-based, was able to let the stormtrooper bodies pile up like cordwood. There is a console command to extend or even remove the time before bodies fade in the latter two games, however. Outcast and Academy actually have three different ways of removing corpses in multiplayer. The corpses will fade on their own if left alone for a long enough time, at which point they'll be engulfed in either white light or red lightning, depending on the Force orientation of the player in question. Alternatively, civic-minded individuals can clean up corpses instantly by attacking them, causing them to disintegrate in the same manner as a fully-charged shot from the disruptor rifle.

Everything Fades / int_43f52aa9	comment	This is so explicit in Oblivion that when you start a certain quest, it spawns a body you have to search. If you wait too long, the body disappears and you can't complete the quest. Bodies do, however, tend to linger for a surprising duration, remaining in cases hours, even days, of game time later. Corpses don't vanish when the character is present, either, lending a certain veneer of plausibility to the idea that they are, perhaps, removed by others. The default time frame for a corpse to disappear is 72 hours without the player present (IE: you have to be out of the cell with the corpse for 72 hours in a row, and coming back resets the timer.) That's in game time, so it's only about an hour or two of consecutive play. Blood on the other hand fades after 30 seconds or so, and arrows shortly after that.

Everything Fades / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft has a set Corpse Stay Time in their respawning cycle. Corpses do last for a few minutes after they're killed, but fade when they're respawned; if you want to loot them, you have to do it before they fade. If you don't loot them, corpses can stay for quite a long time; raid bosses with items on them linger for up to an hour. Empty corpses always vanish within several minutes at the most. They vanish pretty much instantly after being skinned for leather, though (or in some cases in the expansion, after they've been mined or harvested). There are two exceptions: Player corpses can stay for a very long time if the player doesn't release his spirit (there is a 6 minute timer in the main world, but logging out bypasses that until you log in again), and some places have corpses that are there for "decoration" or quest purposes. In one dungeon, some corpses also act as traps, releasing several maggot-like monsters when someone gets close. In that case though, the corpse fades afterwards. Players have taken advantage of the 'Log out/timer stop' element to create what has (artfully) been called 'corpse graffiti'. Essentially, the player creates several 'throwaway' characters and sets their each of their names to one word of a predetermined message, then logs them in individually and suicides to create and display the names in the proper order. Gold sellers have also taken advantage of this to bypass measures taken to prevent them advertising their services ingame. Except they don't use character names for their graffiti, but spell out their site's URL with the corpses themselves.

This is especially notable in any rooms with lots of enemies (such as challenge rooms, big rooms, the Boss Rush room, and some endgame boss fights like Mega Satan), where the room can be coated in the remains of dozens of creatures once you're finished with it, but the second you leave it instantly becomes just as clean as when you first entered.

First they're there; then they're gone but there's a chalk outline where they had been; then the chalk outline vanishes. The burnt-out hulls of destroyed cars also disappear after a short time. However, simply abandoning a car on a sidewalk may result in the player finding it there later. Emphasis on may; any player that relies on this to any great extent will find himself boned sooner or later. Supposedly leaving the door to the car open (not in a closed state) will allow the car to remain more frequently. Which, seeing as how there are NPC carjackers in the game and regular NPC will sometimes drive unoccupied cars, this doesn't make single lick of sense if trying to apply a smidge of logic.

Even lampshaded in the intro, where when a Hybrid is killed and dematerializes in front of another person, one of the Hybrid agents says not to worry about it because the evidence is gone. However, this dematerialization only applies to the Hybrids and their non-AI allies, as the other enemies (scanners and robots) would simply explode upon defeat, and the non-Hybrid alien Gargatuans would not dematerialize upon death. However, it is never fully explained exactly what causes the Hybrids and only the Hybrids to de-materialize.

In Warcraft III, the undead Scourge, which have the majority of them, even have Meat Wagons (their siege unit) that can carry corpses to prevent decay (their animation implies they use spares as ammunition) and create them with an upgrade. One of their buildings also generates corpses for the same purpose. Heroes don't leave corpses behind, since they can be re-summoned at an Altar.

Everything Fades / int_5e91c7d	comment	In Resident Evil 4 and 5, the enemies collapse into piles of goo when they die. This goo itself evaporates in short order (or dissolves if in water) - this, however, is only true for the basic 'Ganados' or 'Manjini' enemies. Certain, more rare, types of enemies often leave lasting corpses, that remain indefinitely (usually because they might be carrying a key item). Other games in the series feature bodies that disappear once you leave and then re-enter an area. This was lampshaded in the first film adaptation, where the characters return to the "laser corridor" to find that the bodies of their dead teammates have mysteriously vanished. The Gamecube-exclusive remake of the original Resident Evil subverted this trope (but only with basic zombies). Any zombie that, er, "dies" by any method other than burning, exploding, or decapitating will stick around even if you leave and re-enter. These zombie bodies must be incinerated posthaste or they will come back later as the much more dangerous "Crimson Head" zombies. A similar fate befalls slain enemies in The House of the Dead 2, but not the bosses. In the first game of the series, they just faded away in conventional fashion.

According to the Metal Gear Solid Database, the FROG soldiers have nanomachines that enhance their abilities even more than normal nanomachines. To prevent these apparently-advanced nanomachines from being captured by "the enemy", when a FROG soldier dies, the nanomachines instantly overheat and burn the body from the inside out. Squick.

In Tomb Raider and Tomb Raider II enemies pretty much never disappear; Tomb Raider III had them disappear after you had turned away for a little while; in Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation and every subsequent game, corpses always disappear right in front of your eyes after a few seconds. In Tomb Raider: Legend and Tomb Raider: Anniversary this also extends to many physics objects. Eventually averted in Tomb Raider: Underworld. Tomb Raider (2013) puts an interesting variation on this trope, as now, only some of the corpse fade, this conveniently limits the amount of ammo and gear you can scavenge off corpses.

Everything Fades / int_6ee28fa8	comment	Handled oddly in the old Commander Keen games for DOS machines. In the original trilogy, enemies leaped up into the air with expressions of shock/pain when shot with a ray gun. The roasted corpses (they appeared to be surrounded by some sort of flame or energy while in their death throes, which would suggest a roasty-toasty manner of death) stayed in the room for a time and then faded away. The later games in the series, trying to be more kid-friendly, replaced the ray gun with a stun gun. The "neuralizer ray" had the same effect as the plain old Death Ray, but dispatched enemies had cartoony stars circling their heads. Despite this supposedly gentler method of dealing with enemies, the bodies never went away and kept the bizarre "oh no, I've been shot!" face while stunned. (And if you read the story section of the help, you'll learn that Keen shot his parents with the gun before the adventure began. As the extro states, "hopefully this won't affect his allowance".) It doesn't seem to be permanent for the monsters either - some, such as Arachnuts, recover and come after you again. The sizzling corpses staying was a deliberate choice by the designers to remind players of the consequences of their actions.

Everything Fades / int_74f7210c	comment	The exploding-corpse version is used in several The Legend of Zelda games. It varies, depending on the game, as well: In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, the explosions are purple and spirally. In Twilight Princess, they are red, black, and more morbid-looking. In The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past fallen enemies explode in a cloud of smoke resembling a skull. Skyward Sword echoes this, with a larger, horned skull for bosses and even having bugs turn into little ghosts with antennae if you squash them. Older 3D iterations of the series use this; notably Guays, ReDeads and Lizalfos. The rest of the time fallen enemies burst into flames (which are usually a strange color) and disappear. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask featured an interesting Lampshade in the form of the Garo, a highly secretive order that taught their warriors to destroy themselves with a bomb when defeated, so as "to die without leaving a corpse". In the original The Legend of Zelda, enemies would simply vanish when defeated (except for the Big Bad Ganon, who turned into a pile of ash). While this is naturally enough explained by the limitations of 8-bit graphics, the animated series based on the game would Hand Wave the phenomenon by having them not die so much as be teleported back to Ganon's lair, where they were kept in a really big jar. Notably, in a couple of the games (Wind Waker being a good example), ReDeads stick around for a while after you kill them, much longer than other enemies, until finally fading/exploding. Actually kind of a plot point in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. The boss monsters dissolve into Sands of Time after being defeated, which is the fuel for the titular hourglass. In Hyrule Warriors, enemies flail around for a bit, become desaturated with color, and explode in a puff of smoke with a PAF noise. Giant Bosses turn black and explode with a much more glorious effect.

In Fallout 3 you are able to pick up and move the bodies (or their extremities) around, which can lead to the corpses of entire gangs occupying a single bathroom stall providing you're so inclined. However, after 72 game hours in a different cell, enemies can reset and disappear or respawn, depending on who or what they are.

Everything Fades / int_8258e260	comment	Some enemies in the Super Mario Bros. series, especially in the RPGs, do this after a whole bunch of colored stars fly out of them at zero health. On the other hand, it's not particularly consistent, since about a third dissolve into light and then fade, another few explode, some turn into clouds of smoke, Bowser gets his skin melted off in one game and bosses in Super Mario Sunshine have different "fades" for every boss. In the Paper Mario series, the stars represent Experience Points; if an enemy gives no experience they just flatten and disappear. In the older Platform Games enemies would just vanish or fall off the bottom of the screen.

Everything Fades / int_959dd815	comment	In fighting games with weapons, such as Professional Wrestling and the Super Smash Bros. series, it isn't bodies that fade but weapons, usually after only 3 or 4 hits. This is largely for reasons of gameplay balance, and to make the actions on screen more interesting: while a real person wrestling on TV might hit someone three times with a chair and then toss it aside to keep things from getting tedious, someone playing on a console might be all to happy to eschew doing any moves in favor of hitting their opponent thirty times with the ring bell. Notably averted in the Japanese game Fire Pro Wrestling Returns. Any weapons pulled out will stay where they drop throughout the whole match, and can be used ad infinitum. This is balanced out by a referee's five count leading up to a possible disqualification, though.

Everything Fades / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: In Morrowind, corpses disappear after three in-game days. Alternatively, you can manually "dispose" of a corpse to get rid of it sooner. This is so explicit in Oblivion that when you start a certain quest, it spawns a body you have to search. If you wait too long, the body disappears and you can't complete the quest. Bodies do, however, tend to linger for a surprising duration, remaining in cases hours, even days, of game time later. Corpses don't vanish when the character is present, either, lending a certain veneer of plausibility to the idea that they are, perhaps, removed by others. The default time frame for a corpse to disappear is 72 hours without the player present (IE: you have to be out of the cell with the corpse for 72 hours in a row, and coming back resets the timer.) That's in game time, so it's only about an hour or two of consecutive play. Blood on the other hand fades after 30 seconds or so, and arrows shortly after that. Skyrim persists corpses for a lot longer, in some cases this is to comical effect, such as when the corpse of the slain leader of the rebellion remains draped on his throne perpetually after you kill him (this was later fixed). One of the popular performance improving mods actually enforces this trope to diminish the save state data being tracked.

He does this by using his melee weapons, so close proximity is required. The corpses vanish really quickly though, so a Predator player wishing to amass a lot of points necessarily has to come out of cover and get to where the corpse is, giving plenty of opportunities for enemies to shoot him full of lead. A Predator player will also wish to use the less powerful weapons, as a careless shot from the plasma weapons can vaporize a target's head, making it impossible to collect the skull.

Early games had the enemies as robots, which exploded when destroyed, but the explosion released a tiny animal, which would then jump around towards either the left or the right of the screen until it went off screen where it was gone forever. Yes, even if that meant jumping into lava, or a bottomless pit. Later games allowed you to collect these animals meaning the robot parts disappeared, but the animals stayed, but only the last eight found, any new ones would mean older ones disappear. Later still, the series got rid of the animal powered robots, meaning the robot parts would disappear, either into pieces, or knocked into the horizon if they were boosted into.

They always fade away (except for the things you would find useful), but they have different animations and noises before they do so. Mantises sigh and make a clanking sound as they collapse, pterosaurs fall down on their side while somehow still defying gravity to the point that things they DROP stay in the air, Tuskmoors do a little dance thing and just fall, Taurocs look like they are going to hit you with their club one last time, and torches... ugh. They scream "CURSE YOU!" in their last breath... to make matters worse, it does this evil laugh the whole time you're fighting it. If you're a ranged class and it's closing in on you, laughing in relish the whole time...

Even after a real-time year, it'll still be hanging around—even, oddly, if it's a food item like fruit or candy. A lot of the game's saved data consists of repeated "nothing is in this grid cell" markers in order to avoid having to cap the items per acre. Items do occasionally disappear to make way for a new building, in which case a neighbor turns the item in to the Lost and Found. However, trees you cut down do fade, even if their stumps stay—your neighbors will lampshade this and wonder how the tree trunks do that.

This percentage can be modified from the in-game settings; depending on how powerful your PC is, you can go from all bodies fading to the entire battleground being littered with corpses by the end of the level. The Expansion Pack Dark Crusade introduces the Necrons, who have the ability to animate these corpses long after they're created. The Tau Empire also has Kroot units, which can feed on the corpses of organic enemies to gain an immense boost in health and damage. Soulstorm added the Dark Eldar, who can harvest corpses for soul energy to fuel several abilities.

Everything Fades / int_c0d295c4	comment	In Team Fortress 2 corpses will remain until you respawn and die again. Your Eternal Reward, a special alternate Knife for the spy, plays with this. Upon a successful backstab, it cloaks the corpse, muffles the death scream, and changes you into the person you just killed, all within the span of a second. While it sounds like it should be easy to spot, it's actually very hard, especially since you'd be paying more attention to the other 10 or so people shooting at you than where that sneaky engineer or pyro disappeared to. The Dead Ringer causes you to "die" upon taking damage, dropping a fake corpse and instantly cloaking the real you so you can sneak up on the guy who thinks he killed you; attentive players may notice that you died too quickly or hear the loud decloak noise, but many will not. And you can use both of these tools at the same time...

Everything Fades / int_c2463c46	comment	In Final Fantasy, slain enemies just disappeared in the blink of an eye. From Final Fantasy IV onward, the enemies faded in a purple haze, although they went through death throes first in Final Fantasy VIII. Final Fantasy X and X-2 were exceptions; it was explained that the monsters were restless souls that gathered together "pyreflies" (supernatural fireflies) and manifested as "fiends" - thus, killing one caused it to break apart into the component pyreflies, which flew away. (Mechanical enemies, meanwhile, just blew up or fell apart, but humanoid enemies still simply vanish without explanation.) Final Fantasy VII and its Compilation show bodies dissolving into The Lifestream, even in The Movie. To what extent this happens to humans and other 'normal' animals is not really explained. Final Fantasy has used the fading death trope as a signifier of Killed Off for Real as, for humans this is always depicted as the character blinking out of existence (see Scott or Galuf.)

Corpses will generally only fade if you stop looking at them for a few seconds, but if you kill enough guards in the same area, you can watch them fade away.

Everything Fades / int_c72021c5	comment	Deus Ex: The game is also noticeable for lacking this effect, even having flies gather over the dead eventually as in Diablo below; if the bodies ever did vanish, there was always an explanation given in-game. However, NPCs friendly to the player would fail to react at all to the sight of a dead or unconscious ally. This verisimilitude comes at a terrible price: Individual save files often exceed 10 megabytes! The reacting to bodies was originally in the game, but it caused too many problems with AI, and was Dummied Out at the last minute. There's a lot of it left in that can be seen and enabled with the SDK. Unless the player is carrying the corpse on their shoulders, in which case some friendly and civilian NPCs will flee in terror as if the player had just fired a shot into the air. This goes double for Gary Savage, who will alternate between fleeing in terror and running back towards the player to speak with him (under specific circumstances). This trope was turned into a hazard in the sequel, Deus Ex: Invisible War, where Illuminati Commandoes would dissolve, but turn into clouds of toxic gas. Also hazardous for the many enemies Made of Explodium. In Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Nothing fades, ever. This includes bodies, weapons, Inventory items, Etc. This leads to many players using Adam's apartment as a supply dump.

However, there is a problem with just leaving your enemies to just stay where they are. Not only do they come back to life, they can be enhanced with their OWN soul sucking abilities (when they hit you), but in the Spirit world, you will be attacked by the Wraiths that evolve from their untaken souls (and they come back after a bit unless the body is destroyed, which and only be done after killing the new powered up form, and eating the soul afterward). This can be particularly dangerous in high-level areas when enemies can pick you off easily despite your powers. FURTHER difficult if you slay them on something that does not allow you to get a second chance to kill them in the physical realm (the wall spikes, for example), and you have to suffer a wraith (or more) every time you pass by there in the Spirit realm.

While on this chemical bodies appear to fade away and there is no blood or gore. Unfortunately, when off the chemical the game's engine is so poor that bodies still disappear after a while, this time for no reason at all, and the gore system is so anaemic it doesn't even produce impact marks on bodies, something GoldenEye managed. An otherwise-unique game mechanic even forces the player's attention to this, as after they switch sides they can play dead when low on health to make themselves invisible to the Nectar-enhanced soldiers - and, appropriate given the engine issues above, half the time enemies who aren't supposed to see you anymore will continue shooting you anyway.

This is tactically relevant for many reasons: you can see where battles have occurred before you got there, dropped explosives can be picked up or detonated, explosions can turn dropped blades into damaging shrapnel, and ghols have the special ability to pick up objects (especially blades or explosives) and throw them at enemies.

Don't worry, they can be revived —with a high-level, high-cost spell that shows up near the end of the game, and which restores the ally by the side of the caster instead of his or her original location.

Everything Fades / int_ecd2d797	comment	The Baldur's Gate RPG series—and games based on the Infinity Engine in general—meanwhile, had dead bodies that eventually faded (assuming they weren't exploded into giblets from massive damage). Also, Baldurs Gate had a special feature in some areas that respawned enemies some time after their corpses disappeared out of the Player's Point of View. Notably averted in the Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance series, where you could revisit most locations that you had been to to find that the hordes of corpses and rubble were still there. This might explain why the games' save files took up so very, very much space...

Everything Fades / int_eded135a	comment	Tomb Raider (2013) puts an interesting variation on this trope, as now, only some of the corpse fade, this conveniently limits the amount of ammo and gear you can scavenge off corpses.

Everything Fades / int_ef215943	comment	PAYDAY: The Heist has dead bodies vanish after too many are present in the level. Players who bleed out also vanish from the playing field, though this is justified in that they're taken into custody by the police rather than actually dying. Subverted with the sequel during the stealth portion of a level. Dead bodies will remain in the level during stealth, since any guard or civilian that sees a body will alert the police, thus necessitating the use of body bags to move corpses into hidden corners or dumpsters if a guard gets lucky and spots you and/or murdering everyone that could call in an alarm isn't an option. If your cover gets blown, bodies will start to vanish as normal.

Everything Fades / int_f04b4111	comment	Metroid: Enemies usually explode into nothingness when killed. Some lingering corpses can be seen in some of the games, including the Prime games, but they usually died offscreen. The Metroid Prime Trilogy has a few variations. Smaller enemies will typically explode when defeated, with the bits evaporating. Larger enemies will go through a Ragdoll Physics animation, then disappear. When you kill an enemy with the game's fire-based beam (Plasma Beam for Prime, Light Beam for Echoes, and Plasma or Nova Beam for Corruption), they will completely burn up into black dust. Meanwhile, anything killed by a Metroid will become a fragile husk, which turns to dust at the slightest provocation; this last one is used to creepy effect in Corruption, when you find a derelict starship filled with such bodies. In Metroid Fusion, this is averted since all the enemies are actually the shapeshifting X parasites, which simply dissolve and turn into floating protoplasm when you "kill" them. If you don't absorb them, they'll eventually fly somewhere else in the room and turn back into monsters. Even then there's an exception to that exception, as human corpses on the Main Deck of the station can be revived by these parasites, and after shooting them the body will crumble and release the parasite again - and those remains will stay there until another parasite takes control of them again.

Everything Fades / int_f2db390d	comment	In Prey (2006), bodies remain there before you obtain the power of Deathwalking. After you get it, they dissolve into a white ectoplasmic residue while you absorb their souls. The implication is that a body cannot continue to exist if its soul is destroyed. Trivia: this was discussed by developers in a restaurant. After one of them made this suggestion, another exclaimed "Finally we know how to get rid of the bodies!", attracting worried looks from other patrons.

Everything Fades / int_fd8ef85e	comment	The many, many corpses created by the PCs in Left 4 Dead fade at different rates, depending on how many enemies are currently around; sometimes they'll stick around indefinitely, other times they'll fade before they even touch the ground. It's a testament to the atmosphere and intensity of the game that many players don't even notice when the corpses disappear. Played painfully straight in the gimped Australian version of Left 4 Dead 2note before the creation of the "Adults Only" rating, where all enemies fade quickly and conspicuously out of existence, sometimes even before they hit the ground. Just as painfully obvious in the German version, especially when a survivor is killed, and the others will then go "Oh no! Not Francis!" while staring at a piece of ground with nothing on it except maybe a puddle of blood and a medkit. There are also mods that can simulate the same "bodies disappear quickly" effect, which is usually made for people whose computers aren't powerful enough to render all the dead bodies. Oddly, in the penultimate map of the "Death Aboard" custom campaign, bodies of the Infected start disintegrating as soon as they're killed. It's only present in that map - word of mouth is that it's related to the map being set entirely in a beached ship tilted to the side, which wreaks havoc with prop permanence in the Source engine.

Everything Fades / int_fe85bfc8	comment	If playing Stamina Mode in Super Smash Bros., your character will remain on the stage if you lose all your health. Other players can still knock you around, and even pick you up to block attacks. This gets averted from the fourth game onwards, as fighters will vanish a moment after being defeated. What's especially freaky is that, unlike the games after them which have the fighter use one of their normal KO voicelines, both Melee and Brawl has anyone whose stamina reaches 0 let out the same huge scream used when they're Star KOed (usually a Big "NO!"), and time slows down as they do so.
