[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 149735, member: 467"] Since professional wrestling is essentially professional LARPing, the idea is a sound one. In addition, the "genre" is one where the class/level ssytem actually makes sense: there are about three to five major archetypes (plus those that croos boundaries, i.e. multiclass), and everone starts out as a ham-n-egger before rising to the top. The key to making it playable, though, would lie in making it more than a pure combat game. While matches would certainly be the thing that "adventures" culminated in, the stuff between matches would make it more than just a minitaures battle system. One might want to go for more of the "wrestling movie" feel in that case -- newbies or down on their luck veterans touring bars acoss the country in hopes of winning enoughmatches to make it to the bag time Event. A four character party could consist of the Tag Team, the Manager, and a Roadie (for when the Winnebego breaks down). [/QUOTE]
