..as Tobeldest, I would force villagers to give shit back from my kills to enemies I respected. I remember dying to a giant gang on Eastern Road when I was the only rager on and I know I had decent stuff so it was crazy that out of a 4-5 man gang, I came back to my corpse with all of them there and everything returned. I've always loved the thrill of the fight and yes, knowing the consequences and rewards does add a certain element of adrenaline to it, but at the same time, it's nice to tip your hat to a worthy adversary and leave their shit so they don't have to waste time doing more monotonous bullshit. This game already has enough of that already. Anyways, sure, douche bags can exist and completely justify, the full loot/sac roleplay, but it doesn't help anyone's enjoyment and surely doesn't build the playerbase up. So, for the pro-looters out there, do it to your heart's content, but don't expect any new players or returning veterans to stick around if it happens repeatedly. It's just too much of a headache and too much work to try and figure shit out when it's not even that much fun with max 50 people on.
