    Contextualized Player Death

    Concept »

    Contextualized Player Death is when a game includes the player's death in its fiction instead of just treating it as a thing that didn't happen. Mario, for example, doesn't canonically die when the player jumps in a pit, but Destiny's Guardians die and are resurrected constantly, as a core aspect of their identity.
