WTF EVs and IVs?

aebooth opened this issue · comments

they are stupid and complex, that what they are. also a blatant ripoff of Pokemon.

but if we wants to put in a specific, unique boss, the randoms will get it the ways of the balances.!

Please no. I don't want this to be Pokémon.
I don't even think we should have XP. Health is good enough.
The focus should be on the adventure, not the combat.

No, never. Do we really need to make this any more complicated than it already is? I mean, do we really need a complicated battle system like these values imply?

What if we have it like the first Zelda, where you don't have xp but you find better weapons as you explore

i believe that they have nothing to do with this game so... we shouldn't include stuff we can't use! are we making pokemon? NO!!!

no. Zork is primarily a puzzle-adventure game with minimal combat. while there may be ways to make the implementation of EVs and IVs simple, the mechanic creates too much overhead.

All, for now I will switch this Pokemon style system to the "pokemon" branch which Aidan and others who are interested can maintain/develop.
