Aliasalpha: The same things you always use a HUD for, knowing which way is north, seeing how much ammo I have left and knowing which real world objects I'm allowed to touch
Miaghstir: Don't forget health, mental state/mana, time to level up, knowing which direction damage comes from, arrows pointing towards your objective, and... uh there are probably another few dozen pieces of info that should be easily accessible. Objective markers would only be good if I ever had an objective. Well I suppose there could be "give a shit - 0 metres" but I'd never get it done...
