I was looking for a free 3D RPG that will run on my machine. Yours is the first I stumbled over. This caught my eye: Permanent death When a character dies, it is removed and ceases to exist. The same goes for Non-Player Characters (NPCs) as well. This feature has received much criticism for one obvious reason: people don't like to lose their characters. However, we want death to be serious. We don't want a world where people run around attacking dragons blindly or acting against common sense in general. Permanent death is possibly the only effective way to achieve this. However, when the character gains in power the character might have then gained his/her deity's favor and he/she might have a chance to be resurrected by the deity itself or one of its fervent followers. Are you trying to keep your community limited? If you know that people do not like losing all their work, I don't understand why you are doing it. Sometimes I think gameplay comes before being realistic. Life is for being realistic, I want to have fun playing games. btw, i think you have too many mailing lists---it kept me from subscribing to one. :)
