TV back in the 50s,60s and 70s was not gritty. Today more characters are likely to die in a show then back then.Most of the audience is not going to enjoy a film where James Bond dies or Conan gets taken out by orc number 2.It is not about knowing that they are not going to die we all know that what is fun about those movies is watching how they solve the problems. Tell me would the Die Hard movies be as much fun if John McClain buys the farm? Boromir dies after taking out dozens of Orcs, Thedon dies after leading his men bravely in battle.As a player it really sucks if your character dies in the first five minutes and if you have a lot of character death then the attitude comes why bother developing a personality you are just cannon fodder. Death has a place in the game but if it is used to often then for a lot of players the game is no longer fun.</blockquote>
