Post PCs don't die?

I'm just wondering if I'm the only one that feels this way...I read part of an interview with the design folks for Dungeon Seige and in it Chris (I think that was his name) stated that player characters will not die unless the whole party dies because it's not fun? Because you have to go back to town and resurrect them and it interrupts exploration. Hmmm. The article went on to say that your character falls unconscious and then gets back up after a while.

"It was just a flesh wound!" Isn't that why many RPGs have scrolls and spells of resurrection? Death and permanent death are what makes games challenging, I think.

Just wondering if I'm the only one that thinks this way...
