Re: How many muds have permadeath?

No, it's not something new. Even Gemstone had certain NPCs who were permanently killable, and killed. In some games that -usually- have auto spawn hunting areas, it is assumed that these critters are -not- the same critter, reincarnated. It is assumed that the 3 bugbears you see every day aren't the only bugbears on the entire mountain. But that there are actually many many dens of bugbears that breed and live their lives. You just don't get to kill them all in one day. And by the time you think you've killed a few dozen, another few virtual dens have been bred.

This is not only not something new, but it isn't even uncommon. Perhaps your perspective of things is just a little more limited than you assumed it was.
