CAUTION: I will use RO and LoL comparisons here; if you are a sensitive person who hates comparisons then you can stop here n.n!
I like how you think Really well explained so here are the thinks I thought could make it work:
About System:
-Ovbiously is FREE. It is designed in order to make people have a little reward by just playing with more adventurers.
-It is not a 2 people only restriction. I used the name BRO because i donât know many synonyms for the word. But is more like buddies or really good friends(you can have multiple of them).
-Is almost the same as marriage system but it tackles some problems that the marriage system has like:
- Less controversial; You can be a with any person without being a forbidden topic.
- More posibilities: You can have multiples buddies.
- It makes more appealing to be partying and not only soloing.
- More than just a Meh feature. I remember playing RO a lot, and I can say that the ONLY true class that had benefits was the Soul Linker who could use his personal buffs in his partner. And even like that not all the Soul Linkers where married.
- You avoid to serious look in the eyes and : âWill you marry me? #NoHomoâ situation with your friends.
About the Rewards
It is true that they can be too overhelming, but I was thinking in two type of rewards:
First Buddie Reward
Only when you get the first buddie:
-One more slot barrack.
-Custom match.
Any Buddie Reward
With every buddie you have, when partying:
-More SP - Stamina and Hp regeneration; but if you have more than 1 buddie in the party this wonât stack (it counts only like 1); but if there is someone who is not your buddie in the party, the other person wonât get the buff but you and your buddie will.
What does it implies?
-That if i want to party with someone, ex: with other 4 people, and everyone of them has the buddie buff; they can invite me without losing their buff, if I play enough with them maybe I can also become a buddie of some of them
-Thet even if there are a party with 2 buddies or 4 buddies or 3 buddies and 1 Squidward they (the buddies) will get the same buff making meaningless to divide the party.
About the custom:
The custom MUST be something BADASS but only affect your look not your stats. I mean I would love to see a party of people running around me with BLACK GLASSES.
-Random Me: âOMG you guys look awesome, how do you get them?â
-Random Buddie 2: âWe have been PARTYING HARD!â
About the Buff
The buff is only in regeneration because I think it can be more like a: I am with my buddies I can give more fight type of buff, meaning you can fight longer along your friends. Also it shouldnât be a lot, I think the best reward from the system can be the barrack space so the Regeneration can be capped at 10% more regeneration or 15%. But we must see the original values in game in order to be precise.
I want this buff to be like in LoL, the 1 stack of Dragon Buff: it is little buff but you know it can make a difference at dying or surviving with 20hp. But also not meaning that without the buff you are useless, it is just a 10%; âWe can destroy them just 2 more kicks will be neededâ.
Abut the two people dying
It could be fun when the party has only 2 people, but I think that when there are more than 2 buddies we could make only to die a random buddie from the first victim!
EX:
There is a 7 people party, everyone has at least 1 buddie; then the tank dies SO one of the tank buddies must die (if he has more than 1 in the party)! but not everyone, because then all the party will be in the ground like a domino effect even with some clerics xD!
What do you think? Maybe change the buff? Maybe let everyone in the party die?
I like when people discuss ideas with arguments and solutions
