A feature called "Death Cost" was planned to be added which would have the Captain of the Ferry of the Damned deduct gold from players when they died (excluding when killed in PVP), with the amount dependant on the cause of death. However due to community backlash believing it would discourage new players from playing and simply punish you for dying, the game's executive producer, Joe Neate, told players on Twitter that the feature idea had been dropped.
