[QUOTE="jaerdaph, post: 5272973, member: 3398"] Hey Claudio! (Claudio is one of my ultimate favorite RPG artists ever! I remember him from my Kargatane days long, long ago and it was always cool to see him break out into the industry and have such a successful career!) Well, obviously we can't say until the box actually comes out, but, I would think the whole corruption system, which has basically always worked as a Save or Die (or lose your PC, which is essentially the same thing), would be against current 4e design philosophy. It could work, however, if they build in a redemption system. That would be great roleplaying.
