sounds like its final fantasy 1 with alil spin

Right now I have one question
Your classes .. Monk + Wizard + Bladesman + Theif...
They each have different att + hp and etc...
But since the Elements are randomize.. then what's the pt? ><"
i mean the Skills are based off of the elements .. so the class deosn't really give them a major difference??

Well he did say there was 2 class abilities and 2 elemental abilities, so the class abilities will most likely give each player his own advantages and disadvantages.

This looks very promising, I like where your headed so far. Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

yeah...2 class AND 2 elemental skills. depending on what element you are, your elemental skills will can vary each time you play. but you still have your class skills you can rely on. you can test out the elemental skills for yourself when i'm done with them. your element can play an important role in the game. might be used to unlock some sidequests and and special rewards..it can be a part of the storyline..the classes will have similar things too.
if you happen to get the an elemental relic that is the same as your elemental attribute, then your elemental skills will get more powerful.

Tasks finished:
-Beginning intro
-Music and wavs added
-Full functional Level and Heal systems
-Mana System
-Item usages
