I didn't mind. It only means one less party member to worry about. With more focus on one character, I think it makes it easier for me to take on bosses, especially Super Bosses like Minerva, in Crisis Core.
And, there IS an enemy that can cast Death on you. Except, it's not known as 'Death' in the game, but instead, as ..... Okay, I forgot. I do know that the enemy that does that is some Shinra-looking, or Wutai-looking fellow that holds a gun and shoots.
If that shot hits home, and you do not have Phoenix Down, or Safety Bit, or whatever, you're dead. I forgot it's exact name, as well as the enemy himself. I'll probably need to replay again to find out. (It's one of the higher level missions, not the simpler ones)
On the other hand, Minerva's Judgment Arrow can count as a 'Death', in a sense... Though it's more of a 'Dispel' than a 'Death'. That skill of hers, accompanied by its uselessly long animation, removes all buffs from Zack, and does high damage.
So, even with Phoenix Down, that skill will remove the buff from the item, and if the damage finishes Zack off, it's Mission Over. (Since Minerva is only available in battle through a mission, it's not a 'Game Over')
