Editing the death penalty on a Vintage Story server can improve the gameplay experience by making death less punishing while encouraging exploration and risk-taking. Adjusting settings like item loss, respawn mechanics, or debuffs can create a more balanced and enjoyable environment for players. Customizing these mechanics helps tailor the server to different playstyles, whether aiming for hardcore survival or a more relaxed, cooperative experience.
