Well, I like permadeath. It adds stakes, and also provides a good in-universe excuse for picking a new avatar/character. I can see why some people want to keep their avatars/characters, but in my mind, death is something that happens in real life. If it happening in a game can make cool stories happen, it isn't the worst thing to happen in-universe.

Well it seems like it's between two places that are a little too far to connect together. Keeping a game simple enough that it doesn't get bogged down with extra info. And not enforcing people to change their avatar or quit playing that do not want to do that.

Edit: the difficulty setting idea is definitely what I would do if it was a game I was running myself but for this..

Edit: ...how do you feel about the nuzlock self-imposed idea?

Yeah, it's complicated.

Not having permadeath is fine, but I would prefer to have the option to drop a character when they die. I know everything you said points to the option, so there's that.

(Not sure if the Nuzlock suggestion was properly responded to).

Wow this poor village. Feel like there should be a chap dedicated just to some TLC for it.

I never realized spyro had the ability to tell threat from distraction and such. Where is that stated?

I haven't made a character sheet, but Spyro always does it. Gnasty Gnorc, Ripto, The Sorceress ect.

...he's not a big dragon. Or particularly powerful in the world of dragons. Yet in a world of powerful dragons he is still the one they're relying because he's smart.

(Also added a reason for him to go to the house)

So really that double 1 death rule creates a built in hard mode... If you dont use it you risk death, but DO gain an extra LP if you don't... So greatness, that would be potentially something MORE than a nuzlock.
