I prefer death from a random encounter to something preplanned by my DM and I. When death is not an option in combat, I start to feel like my choices do not have consequences (unless there is something explicitly set up by the DM, such as a hostage situation). I know that's not always the reality, but it's just how I feel as a player.I enjoy the feeling of trying to come up with a strategy in combat, and the fear of death makes that effort even more rewarding!</blockquote>
