I haven't checked if there's a modifier for permadeath, but assuming there is I think it would be cool if you could have an option to switch to a follower after death.
#On permadeath - if you die you can switch to a follower

SoR1 has permadeath by default though?

What after though? Do you continue to play the rest of the game as that follower with their corresponding stats? That seems kind of terrible. Alternatively would that be a means of cheating permadeath?
I like the idea of the game’s camera following the player’s killer/follower after they die though, that sounds brilliant

i would see it as an alternative to true permadeath while still keeping the essence of it intact, rather than cheating it. with SoR2 being geared towards longer playthroughs i think true permadeath might be too frustrating.
progression doesnt seem too slow so i think it wouldnt be too hard to develop your follower back to a similar spot the original PC might have been in. you could keep items in your base for future characters too.
