Fair greetings, gentlemen(and ladies) of MMORPG.com. I have come here with an inquiry about RP side of deaths in MMOs. And it is following: What is the explanation behind mass ressurections? How did you explain it? Do immortal characters bother you?(this talk of mortality is void if your character is immortal itself-think Aion/Rift...). How does one explain that every Agent, every Warrior is to be ressurected(no matter the rank-even lowly Footpads)? Or am I overanalysing stuff and Death in MMOs falls in WSoD(Willing Suspension of Disbelief) category? I know that I am asking a LOT, but that side of MMOs prevents me from fully enjoying them. Much obliged :)!

It really seems to depend on the game - and the people you are playing with. I've had people just ignore the ressurctions. Most guilds/groups I play with tend to just take it as being revived from falling in combat - but not being dead. Others think the Gods bless the more adventurous of spirit and allow them to return.
Really, how you explain it is best discussed with those you are playing with. What works for you and them. |

Yes quite so. But why does sign ingame tell "You're dead/You've died"?
And playing Godblessed people is a first sign of Mary/Marty Sue syndrome. And we do not want that, now do we? Because let's face it, who are you to be blessed by Gods? Hell if Teclis/Tyrion/Malekith/Gotrek are not blessed by the Gods... How can YOU, the random mortal be so blessed. Essentially, you are above the likes of Malfurion...LOL |
