Fun fact 2: you can use console command to give yourself 100 placebo... er... I mean 100 skill points if that's what you need to see to feel amazing

Skill points right now are entirely placebo. They don't really do too much other than, apparently, piss people off.

You should see what a REAL death penalty feels like and play some Everyquest or Path Of Exile. Yikers. If placebo ghost points HERE piss you off... jesus... imagine losing 10% XP past level 95 in POE! (3 hours of your life POOF GONE)

I started my MMO life in Lineage 2. Back in 2004 when it launched in America. 3 hours of experience for a death makes me giggle when I think about deaths at levels 55+ in Lin2. Could be literal DAYS of experience grind lost from a single death.
