So currently, I have a very generic/simple naming system, i.e. -
Blind - blinds the enemy for 1 turn
Blind 2 - blinds the enemy for 2 turns
Blind 3 - blinds the enemy for 3 turns
Paralyze - paralyzes the enemy for 1 turn
Paralyze 2 - paralyzes the enemy for 2 turns
Paralyze 3 - paralyzes the enemy for 3 turns
etc.
Do you think this is poor game design and I should make it more flavorful like "Dim Vision - Blind - Sightless Despair" or something like that for each set?
The reason I have it the simple way right now is because I figured it makes it easier for players to keep track of the different spell effects, and they can immediately tell by looking at the name which is a stronger version of another. If I end up with a lot of spells, and each one had a unique name that was descriptive/aesthetically immersive, a pure mage who had a lot of spells could become frustrated with having to keep track of a zillion spells and which ones do what and to what effect.

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
