this is the class chart, it contained the job advancement you can make in my game. The basic class is just the classes of the main characters so read them to find the basic class only one is a advancement class in the character list.

This seems a lot similar to my topic before I got the new logo, I guess you don't want to join the team huh? You never replied, anyway not to let you down or anything, but containing all the information an separate spoilers isn't a good thing....

Thank you and have a nice day.
 
Thanks for the advice i edited the post too, i took down all the spoilers and i added a music and class section for the team thing go read your thread.

EDIT:
I finally got the title to work it is made out of skip title and one whole event with a few switches!
 
Hi, this forum is for nailing down your concepts, not advertising for team members. You can recruit in Project Discussion once your project is underway.
 
This looks like an fashioned quest of getting all McGuffins and saving the world. I'm OK with that, but your story doesn't seem to well thought trough.

First of, the crystals of light contains among other things the light and darkness? Making darkness a component of light feels rather strange, what would then darkness be made of? Also, including light as a component for light comes of as strange as well. That's kind of like saying "this food contains fat, proteins, vitamins, minerals and food". Consider making them crystals of order or something else that's not part of the components.

The Inurians sent beasts to find the crystals and when the beasts didn't find anything, they started to wreck havoc. How would that help the beasts find the crystals? If some of the beasts wouldn't return at all and others returned wounded by Enluman soldiers, then that decision would have made sense. In this case the Inurians may have figured that they have to keep the armies of the three kingdom busy with something else so that the beasts can do their job unopposed. With the beasts just coming home empty-handed I don't see how a war would change anything.

Also, why are countries of Enluma fighting each other when attacked by Inurians? Sure, the Inurians may have disguised themselves as soldiers of neighboring kingdoms when doing their deeds, but you may want to clarify that.

Next, let's go to the characters. Ulrich is the finest swordsman in his village, but how many swordsmen does a village have? The kingdoms were peaceful before the Inurians caused trouble, so there shouldn't be swordsmen in a village. Also, how did Ulrich become a good swordsman, did the orphanage give the orphans training?

Milly sounds like the standard hero's childhood friend who secretly have a crush on him. Is there anything more to her than that? Also, if she has any offensive spells, you have yet another reason to clarify why a village needs warriors since normally offensive spells wouldn't be of any use for a village.

What kind of intruders does Iya attack? The only enemies I can see is Enimagan, Luminar and Inuro, neither of which an unit of pirates should be able to handle. Also, is she really protecting all ports of Esert with just pirates? If so, then I assume Esert has a very small coastal line. Finally, what did her parents force her to do exactly? If she's born in the Sahnaian clan by Shanaian parents, I'd expect she would become a Shanaian at birth. Did she want to leave and her parents tried to keep her there?

I don't think your story is bad, but it seems to have a lot of holes. You should go trough it and make sure everything makes sense.

Moving away from the story, the pirate class seems to be neglected. For some reason it has only two advancements while all other classes have three of them. One of those advancements already has henry sitting on that spot while the other advancement is shared with the Nomad tree.

I'm noticing a lot of similarities between my two game threads, and this one, I'm hating the idea of crystals, but that's just me, I think that the three nations and a hidden place with extinct people, doesn't fit together that well.

Thank you and have a nice day!

I think the crystal idea is kida cliche. Other wise I like the idea of the the Inurians. your class chart is kinda simple though its nice how you set it up. But otherwise i like the idea. good luck.
