Legacy board games have the same issue as you described in fire emblem though: players can ignore deaths by save scumming or not performing the instructed physical mutations of game pieces. I've certainly been in a group that decided to ignore the outcome of a session where we had particularly bad luck on the dice rolls because of the expectation that it would've made subsequent sessions unwinnable/not fun. There's arguably more incentive to do this in the board games because restarting from a 'ruined' game state in fire emblem requires pressing a few buttons, doing so in the board game requires spending $70 again.
