[QUOTE="loki44, post: 3101707, member: 16276"] Technically speaking, and in terms of game mechanics, no, xp do not in themselves provide bonuses. However, without xp you cannot advance, with or without a system that requires training. In that sense xp do make you better. I don't think there's any arguing that point whether you favour training to level or not. Your "aging up" analogy is spot on as a rationale for not including a training component in your game. Again, I don't think there's a right or wrong here, it's just a matter of preference. You also mention a corresponding increase in difficulty regarding finding a suitable and qualified trainor as levels increase. I think Howandwhy99 addressed that well by putting forth the idea that seeking a trainor can be a fulfilling and worthwhile adventure in and of itself. Again, just a matter of preference. [/QUOTE]
