I love going there. Its a lot of fun, and you meet interesting people. Plus EVERYONE can get there quickly and simply by typing /die.
You tell me a better place to have  aparty, honestly.

Ummmm.... The tavern?
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

Ahh, but that costs money. lol. Besides, Its great for playing lemmings, sneaking off into dark secluded corners, And you dont get any NPC's trying to kill you. Just other people. lol.

Seems much more logical than just walking to the tavern.

Options:

A) Loose your pickaxe, armor, weapons, and iron ore that you spent the past few hours mining because some idiot led a grendol down into the Laanx dungeon mine.
B) Keep all that stuff, but go through a simple maze.

Personally, I prefer the maze.

I think there should be a limit to the number of times you can die. Once your character dies more than the limit, it gets frozen and you have to start a new one. This limit could be so many times in such a period and not an arbitrary maximum. It could also be that frozen characters could come back to life after some time, a month or two. This idea is just off the top of my head and needs work.

Of course this would mean that there would have to be some way to enter the death realm in a living state in order to  use the services of the denizens without incurring the penalty.

One thing this would do is encourage people not to use the DR as a shortcut. It could be that dueling deaths in the DR would not count towards the limit unless you entered the DR alive and then just the once as you change state from live in the DR to dead in the DR.

Any thoughts about this?

This may come as a shock to you, but DR was implemented by the devs, thus its rp... thus whenever you go whining about death not being taken seriously... well maybe you should find a different game.

Until DR is made longer, people can and will accept it as rp... and will use it like a subway system, no pun intended.

BTW, I like the idea of coming back after some time if you die so many times in a select period... it would add depth to death, so to speak.

There is one consideration that would need to be made if such a death limit were implimented and that would be how to account for death due to bug. Certainly such deaths should not be counted towards your total but identifying them could be problematic. No-one wants to sit out a month or two with their character because their account got stuck in some kind of death loop. It would not be fair. That said, if such a bug occurred it would very likely be targetted for immediate correction even if the only simple correction found would be 'release rollback'. I have faith in the devs not allowing major bugs to stand.

It is NOT RP to use it as a subway. It is not yet finished. That is like saying that Yilikum only has one level because there is only one in game.

Figured so... anyways In resolution I feel that the plan of making DR more of a difficult trip, is a better idea... I think thats what the devs are planning to do anyways... So im sure it will add meaning to death,a nd people would rather run through maps then go through the new winding maze of DR... once it comes out, until then... welcome to subway death, please show me your tickets ;P
