Great idea!  IMO , if you die , its REALLY gameover , which is a new way to play RPGS.


It is a fun way to play a game, but hardly 'new'.  Diablo II has a hardcore mode to where if you die your character is deleted.  It's funny to watch someone get into a bind in that game, cause they will frantically try to exit the server and save their character instead of dying.

Speaking of which, in the Witcher, they had better make sure you can't save you character by turning of the system if you are about to die.  I could just imagine people injuring themselves by diving across the desk reaching for the power cord.  If they do make it to where you lose your character if you turn off the computer or shut the program down, what happens in case of a power failure or computer system crash.  It is a fine line to walk in these situations.
