I want this:
I want skills to be more varied and not just clustered like Blunt and Axe. You can clearly separate them, and add others that were not in O - Short Blade and Spear, to say the least. Athletics can go - at least the way it was in O, no one needs that... Some are asking to include Medium Armour, which I am not against (though i do not see the point), unless it takes too many zots from the devs. And perks? Well, balde and blunt and h2h should not just be the same thing with different looks - let's say a Master in Blunt paralyses the foe, in Axe causes him to stagger and in Long Blade causes bleeding (1 hp / sec?), stuff like this. And what about them Magic skills? In O they just made spellcost go down the higher you were, thats cool, right?- NO, pls allow for something more creative and functional, like some potent 'meta-magic' powers, like Improved Damage, Extended Duration and Greater Area to be gained from different schools, I am just giving examples. We could go on with Stealth skills including something like Set / Disable Traps and 'social shi*t', like Speechcraft and Seduction / Flirting / Taunting that makes dialog lesse monotonous. Then comes level scaling, which MAYBE was mentioned in passing here, but for those who do not know or remember, whenever you level up, enemies and loot level up too, so everything is apparently always more challenging and rewarding, but the end effect is BOREDOM, obviously there are areas / events where the foe has to be challenging even for a higher level dude (lvl 20+), but in other areas suffice that you know that you cannot defeat him before l 12, and if u r 20, then it is going to appear too easy. Now we can switch to economics, Alchemy, Repair and Enchanting, which demand a full paragraph on each of them. But let me catch my breath for two minutes, time to check for spelling. OK Spelling was fine so far, but I guess it is time to give other a chance for their three words, mine are, as in the beginning, I Want this, so pls Beth give us that, kind regards, pdesbois.
