This isn't a death, but it still sucks. Those Reavers in Solstheim with their weapons that sap your strength. Every now and then you run into a band of them without proper preperation and when you kill them all you find yourself incapable of moving and have to load your last save

:scratch:

Just check out the Crash Bandicoot games to see some pretty sucky deaths.

I like how you die on Morrowind too...just 'UGH!' And you fall life-less.

Ahh yes, I remember Crash Bandicoot Racing. Yes there are some really crappy ways to die in that one. As I recall there are some pretty bad ways in Diddy Kong Racing as well... and Mario Kart (although I know for sure that you never really die because cloud man always comes to give you a lift out of the water)

www.tdzk.com

It's a space sim. When you start out, you trade and level up and earn cash. At higher levels you can build warships and go player hunting or raid ports or even pirate people. They have alliances and politics. It's great.
