[QUOTE="Older Beholder, post: 8478497, member: 6813585"] I'm happy with either death or no death setting, (both as player or DM) Both are fine options. As a DM, I've had one TPK in the first campaign I ran in 5E. One of my players said he liked D&D over video games because death felt real, etc... So I upped the difficultly as it was coming to the final battle of a long story arc. It was a pretty deadly fight to begin with, and then the players did everything wrong, didn't use any of their abilities etc... The player that had said he wanted a deadly game was the one that then complained and refused to play again. Other than that I've had two other character deaths as a DM, but I've never had a PC die while I've been a player. There are times when we haven't played for a month due to scheduling conflicts where I wouldn't think of throwing a deadly fight at the players as I know the group just want to have some fun and get back into the game. I don't really have things set in stone, things can change from group to group, campaign to campaign, even session to session. [/QUOTE]
