Certainly off topic, but what else would you suggest for a death penalty?

alot of these people also want to start at cap level too cuz leveling is a needless roadblack too

Aside from weakness, do we really need a death penalty? If so, how about just take out a small percentage of gil instead of making me run over to an NPC/other character to spend it or stop what I'm doing to finish fixing it myself? Heck, personally I'd take the unpopular choice of exp damage over gear damage because I don't have to stop what I'm doing and to go get it repaired.

A fair amount of individuals would like to start at maximum level, because leveling is a needless roadblock too.

Leveling should be interwoven into the gameplay so that it doesn't stand out and get in the way of progressing through the game. Attaching a feature that stops the flow of battle based gameplay is unintuitive.
I say, either make it so we don't have to go out of our way to fix it or drop the feature altogether.

But yes, this is for another topic.
