First, what I mean by the Katana/Blade-wielder archetype: the PC who uses either a one-handed sword (maybe two-handed sword but not so big as a buster sword or berserk greatsword, something like dual-wielding a katana) or Katana or ninja-sword, something along those lines.

I've always thought about this type of PC being a DPS that is battle-focused on flashy sword skills that deal high damage. To me, this PC is different than a rogue-type because they are not dealing out a lot, if any, status ailments or debuffs; pretty much just straight DMG. They would rely on other party members to draw focus away from this PC in order to buff or set up a strong attack or series of attacks. I think of this role a lot like a melee-type DPS role in an MMORPG, for example.

I'm just wondering what other people interpret as this archetypical role? Or if this role means something entirely different to you?

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.
time for a new avatar :)
