Focus of games must becombat. I hate DnD because it is about natures, aligments, evil,good, chaotic stuff and you have to play as human like creatures andthere is limited amount of classes. In a great game you have to beable to play as everything. I must be able to be dragon, robot,turtle, lion. All characters must be playable with skills and classlevels ETC. So i built my RPG system.
If your damage is 8that will mean you will deal random damage between 1 and 8. So youwill roll 1d8 but we mostly use random number generators in my game.There is also dodge and hit rate for calculating accuracy. You addyour hit rate and enemys dodge to each other. Lets say your hit rateis 10 enemy dodge is 4. That makes 14. If you roll higher than 10 youwill miss; otherwise it is a hit. So if enemy has 1 dodge and youhave 15 hit you will roll between 1 and16; if it is 16 you miss if itis between 1 and 15 you hit.
Core mechanics are likethat; pretty easy and normal. Problem is cooldowns of skills are veryhard to calculate. Each turn decrease cooldown of 1 skill. If youhave too many skills and cooldowns, it can be really hard to refreshall cooldowns. Also you can roll a number for making a cooldownready. If cooldown is 28; you roll number between 1 and 28 if youroll 28 your cooldown for that skill becomes 0.
Like all systems atlate levels mana is being to high and you can cast extreme skills;for balancing the game everything have got Saiyan auras. By consumingmana every turn; you make all of your stats buffed so you become moredefensive and dont die.
Ofcourse spells andskills cant be balanced and your characters cant be balanced too.Because of that we create characters and let you choose one of thischaracters and give some paths, skill trees to this characters andlet you choose which direction you will go while developing yourchampion.
Game can be everyonefight against same monsters and than they fight against each other.Or deathmatch survival looting arena. Or coop boss killing chestlooting thing. However i prefer games like Death of Winter. You playas a government and you move your heroes. You can buy new heroes andyour heroes can die pretty easily; that type of game more fun andbetter i believe.
Do not obey to rules;make a fun balanced fair game. Goal is luck, strategy, methods fordefeating your enemies.
About movement andrange; this things must be more more expensive as you level up them.1 move can require 1 point but 2 move must require 3 and 3 move mustneed 6 points 4 will be 10. Because also in real world; moving fastrequires way more power. There is sound barrier and lightspeed andair doesnt let you move fast. Also gravity; your weight will affectso it is not easy to move too fast it is very expensive. ıfeverybody move 10 tiles every turn; that will be a meaningless map.You know there is a tiny board you playing on and you must not movefast; that makes map smaller.
First you move based onyour speed stat like in pokemon. First you play regeneration turn.You regenerate hp equal to your HPR,if hp is full you hold your extraHP until end of the turn so your regeneration also con block thedamage you will take. Also there is armor block ETC this things actlike HP but more different and complex, they also take damage beforeyour HP. If you dont have hp your mana will take the damage. If youdie, you stay in corpse mode and if they dont kill you, you can standup and survive.
After recover you moveand attack. You do not attack and move; there is no hit and run.After that turn is ended and you manage your cooldowns ETC. So eachturn is made of 3 turns; regeneration, move, end turn keeping tracks.And you have to write everything; otherwise you can forget or peoplemay cheat.
Most important thing isenemies must have levels and skills too; they have to be playablecharacters. And based on difficulty their levels will change; anddifficulty must be very balanced; rat and dragon at same difficultymust have equal power otherwise difficulty will not have a meaning.But you can edit difficulty for adding more fun and art to game.
First create charactersand their skills, builds, passives than let players choose one. Atstart all players must have nearly same power; do not let them dowhat they want; let them choose what they want. If you give freedomto players they will try to be very strong and break the fun of game.We have seen that in DnD Online or Neverwinter.
Skills must havecooldowns but this cooldowns will be random so things will not besame. 20 cooldown means something between 1 and 20 so you can roll 1and ignore the cooldown of skill. Players dont like to do same thingmany times so everything has to be different everytime.
