Gaining our 20th watcher! (welcome), we thought we would run a poll!

I know we haven't been using the forum a great deal but at this stage it hasn't been so important but we believe that it's a good idea to start opening up abit of a dialogue and gauge what people think and most importantly what they would like to see in the final game!

So our first poll is all about Permadeath - you know it's something we have in mind and interested in including, but what do you think!? So answer the call and let us know what you think in the poll and in your comments!

Cheers guys

If you can save your progress then just load it back to where you were before you died then that is good.
Otherwise, making players repeat non-random quests all over again and again could hurt replay-ability, I think.
But it hard to really judge this option since we haven't played it... well.. I haven't played it yet :)

Hey Mkudlo

If we do introduce permadeath it will be an option for which the player can play through the game, there will probably be a few other game tweaks to make the game a little tougher in places :)

I would add that some quests and rooms will be randomized.
Also, encounters while travelling (map) and loot are randomized.
We are trying to randomize all that make sense. ;)
