It's better than being red stapler guy

People look up to me, cringing like whipped animals, hanging on my every pronouncement.  "Permadeath will be the cornerstone of our game!" I cry, and they scurry like rats to their cubicles to make it so.  Well, that's how I envisioned it anyway.  Turns out…not so much.  Especially in an itty-bitty team like ours, where most of our stuff like art and character models is outsourced.  It also turns out that everyone but me has veto power, so permadeath will not, in fact, be the cornerstone of our MMO.  I do make the decision on what coffee we drink though, and by Grapthar's hammer people will lose knee-caps and organs before I give up that kind of power.

And I re-opened my Everquest II account last night.  I know, I know.  I am starting to come to terms with the fact that I am Sony's bee-yotch.  The occasional kiss first would be nice though, that's all I'm saying.

    The permadeath idea is awesome if you ask me! I never understood this phenominon of dying.. yet only being made naked by death…. wish that happened in RL.. think of how crazy life would be with naked people spawning randomly around the world…

    Naked people spawning randomly around the world…Mike it's called childbirth! ;) I like the idea of permadeath too. I think I'm more bloodthirsty than most though.
