This is quite possibly the silliest concept for a game I've ever seen. Essentially it's going to be a typical online FPS with the catch being that once you die, you're locked out of the game and can never play it again. Might have been a potentially fun idea in a completely different genre... a PVP shooter, though, I expect plenty of camping and hacking tomfoolery that's going to fuck a lot of people out of $10 within a few minutes.
Just saw this. Apparently when you "die", you don't immediately but rather your killer will decide your true fate. They can allow you to live, make you their bitch, take all your shit in exchange for freedom or piss on you. I'm sure everyone will be very generous in this friendly game.

The inherent harshness of the concept is tempered somewhat by the "Domination" mechanic, which allows players to decide the fate of "defeated" enemies. The good news is that losing doesn't necessarily mean death. That is also, however, the bad news. "Forgive, humiliate, finish off, take everything he has—it’s your choice. Saved [the] life of some loser? Take them captive and make them work [it] off. They will do everything to be free again. No other game will give you this feeling of power over other people," the One Life Greenlight page explains.
The game promises "live communication" between players with voice and text chat, so victors can properly enjoy the "screams of rage and cries for help" of the vanquished. Based on the trailer, it will also be possible to take a digital piss on them if that's your thing. (And no, I'm not kidding.)
I dont get this model. You're going to have a bunch of dicks who purposely kill people forever just to kill the game. Only a moron would actually buy this.
I could see this maybe working if you just got kicked off for a whole day. Then it would be kind of fun to get together with a few friends and go out hunting little scrubs in packs
