But the premise of the immortality chip suggests that we won't simply "die."

Vampires and orks are immortal too. Doesn't help them.
I think only games that handles not dying properly are King's Bounty reboots. It makes sense and you can end up in unwinnable situation if you lose too much fights. Some people say the same about System Shocks, but i don't know, prefer a straight death. Ded is ded, anything else just looks pointless, we are capable of loading the safe after all. I don't count mmos and diablo like game ofc.
