Growing trend? Little to no penalty for dying in a game.

I don't like it but it's not like this hasn't been a scourge for much, much longer than recently--it's especially irritating when a game only has one difficulty level and/or you have to go through the game once to unlock a harder one.

However, as a semi-relevant aside, I love when people complain a game is too easy because it provides unlimited continues--apparently not continuing never occurred to these Einsteins.

 

 A game with unlimited continues can still be challenging if you have to start the entire level over again while keeping none of your experience or pickups.
