I love the new look and I'm super excited to give this version a whirl when you complete it. Also, this is a bit late to throw out there as an idea, but is a master system possible like Bof 3 had? That'd be pretty neat to see.

I actually entertained the idea for a master system because I have the foundation for one. The Shamans have two function: the first being you go to the tower and merge with them to transform. The second is you can also "equip" the shamans in your inventory for partial transformations/stat boosts. I don't think it would be too hard to expand on it to the master system.
Yeah! And I mean, if you wanted to do like #3 did, there are plenty of named NPC's or special ones that could work as Master's to the party. The leader of the rangers guild, the head mage at the magic school Nina was in. Heck the HR director in the callosum even. He could be like the games Fahl that you unlocked after the whole poison dart debacle was over.
