OK, so my main concern for my game at the moment is what battle system to use for the following ideas.

characters suffer Panic attacks and thus transform into another person using a state of "panic". this would allow a summon of sorts for a few turns until the state wears off.

using Panic attack States at the right time would turn the tide of battle, unlocking new moves and classes for the character who panics. like you'd start with a basic class but once you unlock your Panic state (think defeating your shadow in Persona 4), it's usable and unlocks 2 other classes. one that goes with MP and one just for the Panic state.

sooo getting to the point, what would be a good battle system for something like this? I've tried a few for feels but nothing concrete yet other than it being Sideview for summons...

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.
