@Emmetation I've been running combat from the pov of "what do I want the players to feel here?" heroic, beat down, on the run, outnumbered, or unstoppable. Things like that. Intent first, balance second. It's really changed how I see combat.
@Emmetation This is my feedback. Especially for the first 5 levels or so. Combat is a course of the meal, not the meal itself, so why does 5 goblins take 2 hours of our precious session??
@jordanmontreuil@jeffgerstmann Hi!!! Random human here.... You do bonus damage if you hit on the beat.if you don't hit the beat, the game doesn't shame you, you can still beat the whole game. In fact, the character still lands hits on time with the music even if your press is off so you don't even sound bad!
@cultofthelamb I leveled up everything in my cult to max far far far before I finished the bosses. Maybe a constant strength increase even after all unlocked so that people who enjoy the base aspect can eventually over level for the combat???
