I vividly remember my Diablo I corpse runs and my memory is forever etched with images of Duriel trumping over my dead Ice Sorceress in Diablo II.</p> <p>So what’s cooking in Blizzard’s lair when it comes to the death mechanic in Diablo 3? Listen to this:</p> <p> Before I get in to what we are doing let me go over some things we want to avoid with a death mechanic. We want to separate being in town and being out on a quest/adventure/dungeon as much as possible. Leaving the safety of a town should not be a decision you take lightly. We don’t want to remove the sense of suspense and danger by making town something you’re always going back to pretty much whenever you like.</p> <p> The intent is to create a greater separation from being in town, and not, and to make your time away from town a lot more tense. </p>
