Hey all!
I'm looking into a non-traditional leveling system. The game premise is basically this: You are one in a group of magicians (wizards/witches/etc) but instead of leveling up normally (EXP to increase from 1 - infinity) you will have a book of spells. In order to unlock the spells, you need to gather components to "cast them." Most of the components would be usual stuff you find while adventuring. Herbs, alchemical stuff, etc, but the big ones you'll have to fight mini (or major) bosses. You'd still be able to find increasingly powerful gear as you progress through the story, but overall this was the idea. The components would be wasted once the spell was unlocked, but the spell would remain forever unlocked at that point. Of course there would still be an MP usage requirement, so there wouldn't be any concern about being over-powered.
Anyway, I was looking for other people's thoughts and opinions to tweak the system and perfect it. Or trash it all together if it's crap!

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.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
