Folks, I asked this question back in 2015 to get everyone's opinion on the Death Mechanic, I got a great response covering a wide variety of opinions and feedback so continuing this discussion is no longer warranted as we have developed ideas and strategies that we will release on this mechanic as the game progresses.
I will now go ahead and close this thread down, please refrain from making any more topics on the death penalty mechanic until you see what we have in store.
Thanks for all of your opinions and feedback, we appreciate it a lot. :)
