When you get hit by an attack in-game that CLEARLY missed you. Being hitboxed is a hallmark of bad game design.
It is also called "Hitreg" or "Hitregging", depending on who you ask.

1. A thing that Ash, lacks.
2.A hitbox that in most video games, everyone has. The purpose of it is to be able to do a lotta of damage (see Phil Swift) if a boolet hits an enemy in the fucking face.

1.: Godamnit! I shot ash in the face 12 times, and she wouldn't die! Jesus Ubisoft, fix this Headshot Hitbox, please!
2.: We have finally tuned the Headshot Hitbox so that it feels more realistic to hit all headshots

Homecoming (or public testing) hitboxes is a phrase most commonly used in the Roblox fighting-party moab game community Project Submus Accudo fan base when a attack (usually a melee) does not register when it should. This being a direct reference to the first public test build for 1.0 (or the full release of the game/homecoming update) where there was a bug in the hitboxes that didnt register most melee attacks and/or delayed them, making most of the brawlers and assassins unviable. This bug was fixed after the developers break ended along with the other bugs in public testing build/demo 1
person 1: hey did you see that? that should of hit! These are like homecoming Hitboxes
person 2: didn’t know homecoming part 2 came out! Thought geomaster fixed it!

A term in FPS (first-person-shooter) games among other games that, in the literal sense, defines where a hit counts. Hitboxes are important for any and all games involving combat, as not having a hitbox doesn't allow any combat.
