This game sucks for new players

[Crissa]

That's the nature of a sandbox.

No, that's the nature of making a world that doesn't encourage players to experiment.

It has nothing to do with a sandbox. You could screw with players in WoW, too.

You're completely allowed to disagree but fact of the matter is things like this will drive off new players, like it did me. I really want to enjoy this game but it just isn't fun to play as a new player and i feel like i wont be having fun playing until i am a month into playing it(...) trying to get back into it for the first time since pre alpha. (...) would you want to keep playing a game that randomly kills you with no explanation other then things like "mysterious illness" while you are in town?

1- So you're a new player but also a pre-alpha player? How does that work?
2- Randomly kills you with little warning? Try getting stuck into cow form hahaha
3- As a pre-alpha player, you clearly haven't been around when we were distributing poisoned food.

Eh ... Let's not necro this thread.
