Feedback and Suggestions - If they made a "no experience loss" option, I think a ton of players would take it - Forum

You NEED to be losing something if you die. Else we'll see fullyolo I r DPS-LOL characters all around. Offense/defense balance is what makes this game good - if you can't defend yourself from dying, getting high DPS won't get you anywhere. I'm not sure if losing fixed 10% xp is a great idea, but it works for now. It could be changed a little, added something like "if you die, you will be gaining 50% less xp for the next 10-15%, or something" or any other option rather than just taking you exp. But no penalty for dying means a dead, boring, stupid league. Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance. Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge. https://joeduncan123.imgur.com https://joeduncan1234.imgur.com	Posted by Perq on Sep 26, 2014, 1:11:32 AM Quote this Post
I'm tired of waving this particular flag, but what the hell. Other games have already done the death penalty better. See Dark Souls, see D3 post shrine of reflection. Toss a coin and pick one; either is exponentially better than status quo.	Posted by Taganov on Sep 26, 2014, 1:44:43 AM Quote this Post

It doesn't make the game harder, it just increases the grind, which a good number of players really don't give a crap about. Losing XP just encourages Grinding to overlevel and boring gameplay instead of taking risks jumping into maps. So leave an XP loss league for all the Uber hardcore players, and make a no XP loss league: best of both worlds.

It hurts a lot when you die again before getting the 10% back all the time. lol	Posted by Sa_Re on Sep 26, 2014, 7:16:35 AM Quote this Post

And while GGG fuck up from time to time, I don't think they're guilty of the above. I fucking hate the penalty as it forces artificial play such as leveling before trying tough areas. We also lack some means of getting lost xp back via corpse retrieval or the like. That all said, simply removing the penalty is cheap and uninteresting. I don't advocate for removing the penalty, and it's a good analogy. However, a key difference is that a parent will continue to be the child's parent regardless of parenting style, except in extremis. Parenting is the long con. By contrast, game players can leave their proverbial family on a whim (as we do). Subject to the developer's, and their owners', aims, I think the "parenting style" of a game developer should veer a little more towards appeasement. P.
