okay, um, you know the healing thing kinda reminds me of mass effect. in mass effect you only carry 4-6, or potions medigel. your health bars do not regen. only partial bars regen. you have to drink a health...uh, take medigel for full recovery.
Also it has the squadmate manual revive. I think they revive at partial health, too, but I could be wrong abt that. But there are no healing mages, or healing spells. Just a few medigel, and you and the reapers.
It works out okay, though.
And the Focus thing reminds me of Kingdoms of Amalur. You have this special azz kicking ability. But you have to build it up by taking down enemies with special attacks. So the bar does not fill up right away, but it doesn't take too long. However, you want to be careful when you use it once it is fulll. You want to save it for that big boss that's at abt half health.. Then Blammie! on their butt. (Great slo-mo kill moves shown).
It worked out okay, too.
