I havent read the whole thread so sorry if this is mentioned. Over all I like Vllads SKill based game. Here is an idea to fight the grind. Allow for a very short period to "grind up a skill" so people dont have to play for weeks just to get to a competitive level. So here are a couple idea's to throw around.
- Quick skill leveling (say a day for a single skill) -
- Over time, have the skill degrade if it isn't used. This would allow for a somewhat faster method to getting to the end at a preferred skill. However for those who would want multiple skills, still an effort.
- All that would be needed to keep skill levels, would be to use them in play time. (Note this also helps resolve the "power level and char sale concept. If a char is idle for a month, he is back to ground zero or some sort of base line).
- Have a final skill level that is difficult to obtain. So on a scale from 1 to 10, you could get to 9 pretty easy, but getting to 10 might be as long as it took to get to 9. Call it graduated mastery.
