Changes

::''Regardless, potential penalties aside, this is the death mechanic we're currently using and it's working really well so far.''

::''We had a [[checkpoint]] system in the BlizzCon demo we showed, where you would die and pop back up at the last chekpoint you came across. Some of that was for the convenience of the demo, but we do like the checkpoint system and intend to carry that forward in the same or similar form. We're not looking toward corpse retrieval currently.''

This is the penalty for death in standard, "softcore" character mode. If there is a Hardcore mode, it will come with permanent death, as was the case in Diablo II.
