Yoshi P comments on death penalty and more

[Shaone]

Yea some of us don't want games to kick us in the balls ever couple of minutes either.

Roshambo ftw!

lmao yea and there's a minority that strongly wants too.

[Sojiro]

Oh yeah we totally need completely soul crushing penalties in this game! But SP loss and leveling down just isn't enough. We need to be even more hardcore these days, how about every time you die you need to start a new character! Awesome is just what I was thinking too! My friends will think i'm such a hardcore badass playing this game then! /sarcasm off

No thanks to SP loss and leveling down.

So basically, the plan he's suggesting give the player absolutely zero incentive to not die.

Way to completely remove any thrill from this game. This guy's as bad as Tanaka.

I don't know about you, but I don't like being spoon-fed as an adult.

if you want to lose EXP when you die go play FFXI. I played a bunch of mmorpg and never have i seen a system as retarted as FFXI's death=exp loss.

Yoshi-p took wow's approach here with the gear damage when dying and that's nice, we don't need more then that as a penalty and the weak status. In mmos we die very often, it is part of the game so a very strict death penalty will ruin the game.

Apparently, only "terrible players" and "noobs" die in MMOs. The FF audience is too elite for that, and we need to impose severe penalties so the people who aren't good enough to hang with us will stay away.

Because that kind of attitude is not counterproductive. At all. No, really.

[Maruviel]

*Sarcasm* I don't know about you guys but I TOTALLY want to be kicked, punched, stabbed, and strung up by my big toes every time I even come close to dying. Spoonfed-Shmoonfed. I don't need no stinkin' kindness from anyone! I WANT TO BE MUTILATED! *Sarcasm*

Thank you Yoshi-P! I'm perfectly happy with the concept of having to repair, and the new Raise spells! ^.^/

[BelgianRofl]

I can't think of any reason why not to enjoy being spoon fed.

Dignity?

Why play a game that is not challenging?

There are games that have that system.

I think you're right.... screw EXP loss, that's not challenging at all. For XIV we look at bigger and improved death penalty! Level loss, you die, you lose a level... you die again you lose 2!! You die enough time you gotta remake your character from scratch now that's challenging!
