Along with other comments along these lines (by other members, not just you), I had been led to believe that the afterlife is a form of punishment. Since you were, you know, describing the afterlife in that statement.
I have since been told in this thread prior to your joining in that the afterlife is apparently not punishment, despite that being what many people have said/implied when discussing it. I understand that Jarka was not killed as any sort of punishment, it was just storyline fodder.
Jarka Wrote:You cannot have a mechanic that is simultaneously intended to punish and just solely exist as storyline fluff. This is where my issue lies.
Therein lies the purpose of the thread. I know not every situation is perfect or ideal. Again, I'm currently working on a post regarding my solidified thoughts on the dynamics of death and the afterlife.
