Re: Let's talk about being robust.

Re: On death and deadliness
I think the main issue with conversations like this is that people always have a different idea of what SS13 is as a game. A good analogy for SS13 is a D&D game, some people want roleplay heavy games but then you lose the stakes of death generally and your actions feel like they have less weight...
