- Description
-
The phrase "have teeth" is used to describe something that has actual power, challenge, or a significant impact rather than being weak or superficial. In the context of gaming, it often refers to boss fights or difficulty settings that are genuinely threatening and require effort to overcome. It suggests that a mechanic is not just for show but possesses a "bite" or a real level of consequence. This expression is used to praise the depth or difficulty of a system that was previously perceived as too easy or "janky."
