Heya,
Our battle system is really really outdated and old. I bet everyone recognizes
that. Although I admit there has been nice add-ons now trying to bring some
new aspects to it - kharim shieldcombat and animist+riftwalker pets to name a
few.
I know the battle-code is a huge pile and so core functions of the game that
no one in their right mind wants to touch it or think it through again, but
that shouldnt be a reason to not to try to make things smarter or better.
While I am not expecting a full remake on this decade, there are few functions
I would really like to see remade into something better. Because of the size
limit of the posting I have divided them into separate posts on the topics so
if interested on the subject try to cope with these 3 posts
1) Battle formation
2) Ambush, ambushsave & leading-skills (that game provides)
This all culminates to point where partying is very leader focused while
others can pretty much watch movies or cook in kitchen, just because there is
not much you can do in battle but press f1 every 10sec.
Yours,
Z
