dowan wrote:Randomly killing you has no counterplay, and makes every single event up to that point completely meaningless (except picking Xom, I suppose). If you want that in the game, why not just wrap it directly into the character selector? So you pick human, then chaos knight, then a weapon, and then it tells you "Xom randomly kills you at turn 1067" so you don't have to bother playing through an unwinnable game.
Stuff on D1 killing you isn't coded as "xom kill you" it's just a side effect of the stuff he does. That side effect is (hopefully) unintended, it's just a result of the complex overlapping systems creating some unfortunate situations, most of which will only kill you early, which is less horrible than being unavoidably killed after investing significant time into playing the character, and making choices.
