Chrono Cross Leveling System Idea

[Sypherblade]

Ive posted this idea in a few other threads but thought id give it its own thread and see how others really thought of this idea.

Main concept would be...

1. Everyone would be technically level one
2. You receive stats from gear and consumables
3. Quests are deep thought stories and most require a group to complete
4. Finishing quests reward in "stars"
5. "Stars" serve different functions
6. Abilities require a certain amount of "stars" to equip
7. Equipment require a certain amount of "stars" to equip
8. Quests require a certain amount of "stars" before they are available.
9. This method the so called "level cap" would be raised just by simply adding in more quests, gear, and abilities. since there would be no "rank 50" or anything...just be the max amount of stars you could have. like lets say 200+

Thoughts..

1. With this system it would result in everyone who has leveled to rank 50 on any job to well..."start over"

2. This system would require many changes to the world map and monster distribution...possibly making many more mobs aggressive and have to be fought in order to advance through the terrain.

3. Large amount of "interesting" quests would have to be made at once.

4. Normal mobs wouldn't give Sp so they would be only killed for farming/quests/or cause they aggroed you and you dont wanna die.
