    You want to keep your money? Give us 40%!
    You don't wanna pay the protection fee? Well, hope you like cliffs and losing money to DEATH!
    We're happy you paid us for this game! Now we get to have the satisfaction of taking your fake money too! Just to spite you! We never really wanted you to be able to keep your money. We just wanted you to spend your fake money on everything. Buying things. Crafting things. A resurrection fee of a percent of your money. Hahahahaha! We like to see you lose money!


    "Dude, they just want our money and make us feel bad. Let's not get this game."
    "Yeah, I'm with you."

    I don't understand.

    Is this supposed to make me laugh or something?

    The OP seems to not agree with the way death penalties work in this game and has decided to respond to it in a sarcastic manner rather than a constructive one.

    Money isn't difficult in this game despite the banking and death fees.

    People just have an emotional reaction to losing stuff, even if they have more than they need.

    Um I'm confused. Please explain yourself.

    If you're referring to how you paid for the game and now they're do a character wipe, it's part of the beta. Don't play if you can't handle it.

    I... Don't get it. If you have a problem with something, at least take a moment to make a post that is actually arguing why you don't like said thing and make your voice heard instead of just sending confusing signals.

    Would you prefer it to just allow you to kill yourself whenever you feel like with absolutely no penalty? Sounds like the most passive-aggressive game in history :rolleyes:

    Not the character wipe.
    The death penalty of losing your pixels was enough. They only needed a way to store pixels. So you wouldn't lose 30% of your pixels from getting knocked off a cliff. But they didn't do that, I accepted it as "Oh, they're gonna put it in later."
    And then I hear they will. Only you lose more from banking than dieing. They just want your money, both real and fake.

    All right, if you don't want to lose pixels on death, what do you propose as a death penalty?

    Enough people have made actual, and serious, points. As such, I'm making my displeasure known via a snarky, sarcastic story.
    And the more threads on how bad this idea is, the more likely devs will care because "wow, look at all this hate mail!"
    That is, if they actually do care about having a good game and not just "Look, a game, pay us and play."
