I'm a hobbyist game maker. I like making games as both a hobby and a challenge. I'm currently trying to make a game using the Linear Motion Battle System similar to Tales of Eternia. If you are interested, check out my youtube of the progress! Located here:

I also dabble in programing software and I've made some nifty utilities but my best one so far is a Save Editor for Final Fantasy XII. Get it here:

User Statuses
Numbers, and System Transparency
Well, you better face the reality now shadowtext. This whole "number" thing? Ain't changing. There is no way something as important as stats and numbers are going to be removed from an RPG but if you're that adamant about it, then the only thing you can do is make your own game with your own choice of whatever.

FFX! My fav game! ^^
But FFX didn't have % based stats, (which is what shadowtext is saying I gather.) You could just increase your base by that amount but your base wasn't in %, it was regular stats.
Also, you brought up another good point that I mentioned earlier, each point you put in a stat significantly increased the output of that stat.

Shadowtext, in that last example are you suggesting that each character have a BASE STAT and then equipment that compliments it with a percentage?
If so, I'm down with that.
This would be cool, but then the entire game would revolve around this aspect, and this would go from being "regular ol' stats" to being "a feature".
But it is extremely possible, and there could be games that can make use of this greatly. Just not regular RPG's. (Since I can't think of any that do this)

But remember, % is pretty powerful. You can't just go willy nilly increasing everything in percentages. If you had 150 STR, something "+25" would just give you.... +25. Wheres +25% would give you 37 points instead and depending on the game, this may or may not be what you want to be doing.
Very true. Xenogears handled this by making "+speed" items very rare, but they made ALL the difference. And yeah, if used on STR or DEF, its how you made your formula, in my own game, every 1 point you increase affects the damage output by at least 10, then that output increases and increases with every consecutive point you put in it.
That depends. Do the 5 STR / 6 STR characters put out differing amounts of damage? Only then does that point matter. If the difference is INSANE you may want to double-check your formula. If it's appreciable, then that point means something.

In a game like Xenogears, speed is important as hell and even a 1 point increase MASSIVELY affects the gameplay.
Also, it's like this. Dependnig on the game, the stats vary, if a game has 2 characters with, eg, STR 4 and STR 5, then that game is one where obviously even 1 point will make a lot of difference. And if it's something like STR 10 STR 24. Then it takes MORE points to make a difference.

Hey guys, the reason the download doesn't work, is because I deleted it and replaced a new download link. This one has bugs fixed.

Pick up DQVIII for $35 instead. Trust me.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Make or break!

If a person can't stand to play thirty minutes of a game then said game probably sucks.
This.

Even if people tell me it gets really good five hours in, I don't want to SUFFER for those first few hours!
And this.
I was playing a game called "Exit Fate" today and my god, i couldn't stand it at all and after about half an hour I deleted it.
