I came to WoW straight from Diablo 2 and was amazed by how light the "penalty" was for dying.

In Diablo 2 you lost gold,Experience(...a portion of which was regained if you retrieved your corpse...) AND you had to pay for repairs.You would never delevel but believe me going from halfway to level 91 back to the start of 90 really hurt.If you happened to play Hardcore dead meant dead forever...

Blizzard could have made the penalties for dying harsher without ruining the experience of the game.Why they didn't is beyond me butd suffice to say it is far too late to be discussing this now.
