This is a topic I was thinking about for a while.
What is better, in your opinion? having weapons (or armor, for that matter) that you can upgrade, like in Suikoden or Dark souls, or to constantly replace them with better ones, like most RPGs do? and why?
The main problem I can think about with upgrading equipment, at least if the weapon is fixed, like in Suikoden, is that with weapon replacement, you can have all kinds of weapons with different effects, while with a fixed, upgradable weapon all you can modify is the damage. In order to avoid that, I'm also thinking about having different enchantments you can add to weapons, stuff like lifesteal, increased critical hit chance, elemental damage, etc.

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!
