One thing about RPG's that I find interesting, the level up system. Getting stronger by doing battles. But, if you do too much, like grinding, or just getting unlucky with random encounters, your level can sometimes become too why, and parts of the game may become too easy. Which is where my idea comes in, unlocking new level caps. Here is an example.

At the start of a game, your level cap is 10. Pretty decent level for early game. After you defeat a certain boss, you get a message basically saying, "Level Cap Increased!" With it, you can level up to say, 20, giving you better stats, as well as new abilities you can get. That way, your never too powerful for what's ahead, making it so you can't just grind to win. You'll still have to think about how to win battles. If I had to compare it to anything, I'd say the Crystarium system from Final Fantasy XIII, just without branching paths and stuff.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

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.
