There are mechanics in place to make death more punishing.
In concept, I really like this, it would make the game more exciting.
In practice, I die too often to things outside of my control.
(Ship randomly exploding, pushed off the elevator by an invisible force, suddenly stuck in my ships hull at random)
The consequences are not enjoyable. The subscriber gear that is lost. Sniper rifles that I cannot purchase anywhere are lost.
The same goes for crimestat. The other night I got crimestat because my Pisces bumped into my own Carrack from inside it's own hangar.
And for plenty of other reasons, the sentence is a lengthy one.
The other night, I slowly watched my character go hungry and thirsty, while being unable to eat or drink the items from my inventory.
I felt punished for the game glitching out.
