        What do you mean exactly? Many videogames have a functionality where you are down and bleeding out or something for some time, in which you can be revived (not counting as death). After that, you have to respawn (counting as death). And real people can’t be respawned, but revived, so the original take still stands.

          The first thing that came to mind was the Revival Book in Dream SMP.

          It was a mistake to say “all video games” here.

        False. In bf4 (and probably most of the battlefield games) if a doc revives you in combat your dead count goes down by one.
