A Little Pain with my Pleasure

Personally I don't like death penalties. Also on a side note I don't think we ever "die" we get knocked out. So the penalties should be called KO penalties right? Perma death is silly IMO and not many ppl would play a game like it.

Everquest had exp loss and deleveling. I think Final Fantasy Tactics did also./thread.

Lineage 2 as well, if I remember correctly ('twas a very, very long time ago). . . .

How about for every death, you log out for half an hour?

Gets you the same result, and it won't bother the rest of us.

I'd prefer enforced perma-death

you know how i know you never tackled any difficult content?

This may have been discussed recently; I have not found a post lately though. Why not bring back the loss of experience with death. I know it was not a popular attribute to FFXI. It did do some interesting things to game play. People did not tolerate people not performing in parties. People would help you get better. Also that lovely delving sound. I know it hurt to loose experience. I would rather loose experience than paying to fix my gear. It also set FF apart from other games as I do not know of another that had the loss of exp. It is just one of those things I look back on and miss.

It's called Wizardry Online, my friend.

Less that I like death penalties and more I can see a reason to have them. Don't think ARR will have them because the games they're basing it on don't. To me it's kind of an incentive to tread carefully and perform well. With exp being so easy to get in ARR it's not like you'd be suffering as it was in XI.

Between the ease of generally defeating monsters, the lack of difficulty even in instances and the exp (which I figure be easier to get in ARR despite some saying otherwise...) a death penalty would be pointless overall.

I just think if we die in game we should die in real life. Just sayin' /thread

Ooh at long last, fusional's been an ass to me! Long have I waited for this moment! Now where's that HI-LARIOUS meme I'd been saving up. Oh wait, I'm not an internet forum nause.

You're right, of course. I never tackled any difficult content in 1.0 and hence haven't died yet. My excellent suggestion was made purely to benefit myself and screw over all those who actually play the game! I win!

Sorry, did you have a contribution to make?

I wonder if people would be for an exp gain on death. lol

Timez has changed yo.
