Yes, that's exactly it I mean, it's just good game design to permanently handicap the game player, undoubtedly rendering it frustrating for some to the point where they either conclude that they can't make the choice they want to make in the game, or just give up on the game entirely. A more astute summary would be that the people here are just upset because rather than forcing others to play the game the way they want to play it, they are forced to play it the way others want to. If the player is stupid, he should be handicapped. Just like killing everone in town (stupid) will handicap you. There is no actual "consequence" in your "choice" if you can just replace NPC's via a camp that you carry with you. Yes, obvious because theres no other way to die.

Dragon Age
So lets summarize: 1) The inability to die unless there is a TPW is cool with everyone because death is an inconvenience that everyone just reloads through anyway. 2) C&C is just a catchphrase that has absolutely no meaning because who cares if you piss off / kill your entire party, theres an entire camp of fully leveled NPC's happily waiting in camp for you to use. Also, C&C is an inconvenience and otherwise everyone would just reload instead of, you know, thinking about their actions. Also, Im curious, what happens to the NPC's that the protagonist himself slays? Do they pop tall when you leave the screen?

So I suppose this also means you can only choose the skills/spells of the protagonist? With everyone in camp leveling in lockstep, the game must chooses for those NPC's, right? Or if you choose one of those guys after several levels you have a pile of points to spend on them?

I get your point but I would like to point out that no, you shouldnt learn anything from being dead.

Well, yeah, but you could also just have everyone start out at max level so as not to be burdened with having to raise them. IMO, the NPC's in camp getting exp "just because" is a bit weak.

Dragon Age
From what I heard, every active party member gets the full mob xp, and the camping ones get reduced xp. Interesting. So they probably even get exp when they're face down on the dungeon floor. There is literally no penalty for death that cant be fixed with a potion. I suppose thats helpful for kooks like me who would reload in BG if even one member died as I wanted everyone in the party on close to the same level, lol. EDIT: I see now that you said "active", so do dead/unconscious NPC's not get the exp?

Dragon Age
Can you explain this a bit? Lets say you have one party member and kill one darkspawn for 100xp. If you have two party members kill one darkspawn both get 100xp each? Not 50xp each?

^True dat. I have the Android (T-Mobile version of the iPhone) and while it does have a virtual keyboard, its a total pain in the ass and I always just use the slide out QWERTY keyboard.

It doesnt matter who owns what, the fact of the matter is that since the spider merely exists on that tree, it is deserving of the bounty the ants worked for. Duh.

Lol, that reminds me of the Navy. Paygrades of E4 and above had to do these same self evaluations and pass them forward to our supervisor who would make the final grade. At the time, 4.0 was the highest score you could get and everyone I know had that score.- Nesiyya CYOA
