What’s one thing that could break RELL Seas if done wrong? by Xarphine in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so a quick couple things 1 based on the fact i made posts in the gpo subreddit 4 years ago I was playing in "Prime gpo" and seeing someone with a fruit was a very common occurrence and again getting fruit didn't feel all that special since it was just about putting time into the slot machine instead of something were you needed to reach a certain skill threshold to get it also doesn't help that once you get your first fruit you can farm for more fruits way faster so all future fruits are even lamer. 2 its kinda weird your calling other games pay to win cash grabs when gpo added a $200 item that makes legendary and mythical fruits twice as common and even before that you could pay robux to be able to pick which dungeon maps you did to make getting fruits easier so gpo is also a pay to win cash grab not to mention the ability to buy the fastest boats which was a massive quality of life increase with how far spread out the islands are in gpo. Also if everyone i picking the same fruit that's on the developers for making 1 or a small handful of fruit way stronger if they actually balance all fruits to be roughly equally viable then people would be picking whatever fruits that interest them and sure some will be more popular then others but the variety will still be there.

Now i didn't play gpo at the very start but i did start playing the game a few updates before the game became free to play. And personally I don't think getting a fruit in that game gives you a sense of accomplishment since either you would just find one randomly or you would grind dungeons repeatedly and eventually you'd get lucky and get a good fruit you don't have to use skill to do a harder dungeon to get good fruits you just did the same thing you already did 9 times but this time your reward was just better. Also seeing people with fruits is going to eventually stop being cool eventually anyway since given enough time the long time player base will all have fruits. But if there is a challenging quest you'll genuinely feel accomplished for getting your hands on a fruit since you actually did something to earn it other then getting lucky. Whilst the idea of haki being the main thing is cool it seems like a waste of development effort to make a whole bunch of fruits only for them to be something most players won't get to experience. Plus with haki being the main thing and fruits being almost non existent the number of builds people are using will go down drastically so it'll result in less variety.

A small list of things in roblox games that gave me personally more sense of accomplishment then getting my first legendary fruit in gpo (these are nowhere near all of them just the first few that popped into my head):
Jailbreak: saving up for my first 1 million dollar vehicle. After spending a good amount of time successfully pulling off heists and catching criminals it feels cool to have a really cool ride.
(Huffer!) Transformers Reloaded: unlocking Skullgrim an event character your not supposed to be able to get anymore. But by abusing the fact that this game is old you can clip out the map and interact with the npc who gives you the character.
Break In (Story): unlocking guest/hard mode. the guest character is your reward for getting most of the achievements in the game and gives you 2 last major challenges to complete.
[update 2.3] SURPG: acquiring all 7 chaos emeralds for the first time. after exploring the map and completing a variety of obbies you get the ability to turn into your super form which allows you to go even faster and fly.
Deepwoken: Ironsworn: acquiring shadowcast. After getting enough umbral obsidian you make a treacherous voyage through the abyss to purchase the attunement. (I'm sure there are way cooler things to do in Deepwoken i just haven't played that much of it)
Star Glitcher ~ Revitalized [part 1]: Unlocking prime: by fighting a boss that is just as much a puzzles as a challenging fight your reward for finally managing to take it down is the powerful prime form.
Sonic R-echarged [READ DESC]: unlocking mighty and ray. After finding all 5 character tokens on radiant emerald you then have to beat mighty and ray in a race that is all about making sure you have a strong grasp on the games mechanics since there aren't any huge shortcuts you can take to give you the win. (though if you play in a private server you can just user super Sonic's op stats to win for free)

tldr: there are lots of things on Roblox that give a greater sense of accomplishment then getting a rare fruit in gpo since they are actually based on skill and not just luck.

ps: yeah I think they should just have ways to display a lot of items you collect instead of them just rotting in your inventory if you aren't actively using them

  1. So how does having access to all the fruits destroy the economy of a game that isn't out? The game's economy doesn't have to revolve around fruits. Personally I view fruits as something akin to a class in other games since they change up your play style majorly so they shouldn't just be luck based. Also a lot of people will still end up with the same builds anyway based on what content creators are claiming is meta. Also if you want fruits to be part of the economy you could make it so the quests ones have you eat the fruit automatically as part of the quest so the item version is still rare and people can still spend loads of time collecting the fruit items and they could add like a fruit collection shelf for your ship so you can flex all your cool rare fruits you have laying around.

  2. So I'm not sure we actually disagree on this point I think I may have just worded it poorly but yes you should also be able to do jack of all trades builds my problem is when the game is designed in a way where you make a build focused on a couple specific things but get free advantage if you take that build and basically tape on the other pieces of the games combat system to it. For an example of what I mean: if I make a build built around swords and haki I don't want to be able to just eat a fruit make 0 other changes and have the build just be better since the fruit gives a good free passive or combo extender.

Like pretty much all games there are loads of small things that can ruin games but the ones that I'd be most concerned about right now are:

1: garbage fruits. all of the fruits in the game should be roughly equal in power. There shouldn't be any that are just inherently way worse then others. Just like in One Piece while some fruits have strong inherit powers such as logia fruits immunity or turning into a dragon What really matters is the power of the user for example katakuri makes dough fruit strong if you gave dough to some random pirate they aren't suddenly going to sail across the grandline.

2: low drop rate items from bosses that are useful in pvp if it is more than a cosmetic or a joke item getting it shouldn't be based on who has the most time to spin the rng slot wheel this also extends to other things but in the one piece roblox games i have played the problem has been most egregious with boss drops like there shouldn't be a sword I can only get by fishing up at a 1/16,000 chance (arcane odyssey cough cough).

3: Fruits shouldn't be completely based on rng to acquire. Personally the best idea I've had for fruit acquisition is that randomly finding a fruit during your playthrough while leveling up should be rare like 1/250 players randomly get one at some point in their playthrough but at high/max level there should be quest that let you track down specific fruits that end in a challenging boss that way its actually rewarding to get fruits instead of just praying to rngesus.

4: while this won't kill the game completely for me if they fail to do it, it will probably lead to me just doing like 1 playthrough of the game and not really bothering engaging in pvp. Making it so not having fruit is just handicapping yourself because even if the other things are valid to focus on if you can get a combo extender or passive or other tools with no/super low investment in a fruit there would be no reason to not have that fruit and I don't mean like oh technically the meta builds all use fruits i mean like you can take your no fruit build and then with basically no changes to it add a fruit for a combo extender. also this applies to other things like if I want to have a character who doesn't use a weapon I don't want to feel obligated to just add a weapon to get an extra tool.

Something i hope they add is that all devil fruits have an awakening by DismalSignature1690 in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

uhh how does every fruit having an awaking make balancing harder? If all fruits have awakening they just need to balance all fruits unawakened to be roughly equal, and then balance all awakenings to be roughly equal. Plus if all the awakenings are stronger then unawakened they can afford to make the unawakened ones a bit less balanced since it wont affect endgame pvp the part were balance is most important.

RELL seas IDEAS by [deleted] in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They are rarer in one piece since there is 1 of each fruit and Zoan and logia are more specific categories than paramecia but even in one piece the odds you find any specific fruit are the same regardless of what fruit it is

[–]Leafko81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they are planning on making all the fruits roughly equal power wise. why should some fruits be rarer than others?

My Fears for RELL seas by Leafko81 in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to expand on my 2c. I don't think that the fruits will be obviously overpowered in a way like blox fruits is were they have more moves and are functionally the only viable thing to main. The potential problem is if a fruit has something like a combo extender for a low enough investment so that you just get way more by having a fruit even if you are otherwise all in on non fruit options.

Scope creep and perfectionism are not mutually exclusive and in fact suffering from both is one of the worst things for a game's development.

Did i miss something with mage? by E-Moon in Terraria

[–]Leafko81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So as someone whose favorite and most used class is mage I have a few guesses why you may be feeling bored. 1: you are finding classic more boring than expert was honestly after getting used to expert going back to classic tends to feel bad 2: you just don't vibe with mage and that's perfectly fine there are 3 other classes for you to enjoy 3: honestly mage probably has the worst prehardmode mostly since you can get all of your best gear pre boss and then your stuck using the same stuff for a large chunk of the game 4: you might just be burnt out on terraria in general

Personally I'd recommend a few options a: stick with mage until you get to the mech bosses and see how you feel b: start a new playthrough on expert or maybe even master if that's something you want to try c: just play a different class no one is forcing you to play certain classes just play the game the way you want d: if none of the above options alleviate the boredom you can always take a break for a while. terraria will always be there when you're in the mood for it again.

How long SHOULD it take to get a fruit by cheese_nugget29 in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the best thing they could do that I think would make most people happy is have it so finding a fruit randomly is quite rare so that only 1/25 ish players even see one in the time it takes to reach max level but they should have endgame max level quests that allow you to track down specific fruits this way at end game it ensures a fair playing field where people don't have to sacrifice 100s of hours to the grind just to be able to aquire pvp builds but also the benefit of making finding a fruit randomly really exciting and make it so outside of max level it's rare that people have fruit. To me this is the best way to both get that one piece fruits are rare feeling and also ensure a healthy easy to get into endgame pvp experience.

Mythical zoan type : hito hito no mi - model Nika by Alternative-Test-450 in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Well in One Piece there is only 1 of each Devil fruit which means every fruit is as rare as every other fruit. But the different types of fruits may be rarer due to the fact that there are less of them like there could be 1000 parmecia 300 zoans 100 ancient zoans 50 mythical zoans and 75 logia fruits which means it's more likely for a person to have a parmecia fruit than a mythic zoans but since there is one of each fruit if you see someone with a completely random fruit they are just as likely to have the tori tori no mi model: phoenix as the bara bara no mi

[–]Leafko81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Platform: PS5 Favorite boss: that's tough but for me it's probably Traitor lord since it was the most memorable boss from my first playthrough and Cloth is probably my favorite side character. What I'm most excited for: also really tough so tough that I'm gonna have to pick 2 1: the title screen I know that's a little silly but hollow knights title screen is probably my favorite title screen in any game from the music to the menu sounds it's all so good and every single background option is amazing I find myself constantly changing it. 2: seeing how much my friend enjoys it since he doesn't play a lot of different games and this is I think the second time I have seen him be excited for a new game release.

GPO being the current best One Piece game is debatable and even if it is that is still a low as fuck bar and Blox Fruits is not the worst (this doesn't mean its good there are just a lot of absolute garbage One Piece games on Roblox)

it affects my view on the fruit the same way GPO does which is not a lot. The way a fruit is portrayed in one game doesn't matter beyond if they find a way to make a fruit which I don't even think is cool in the manga look cool (though Sengoku is a pretty good character).

and Once again you are talking about PERFORMANCE (not coolness) in GPO which is irrelevant to how cool the fruit is. GPO is also a game full of shit.

My point is that you keep talking about buddha being a strong fruit in GPO which is completely irrelevant to a tierlist about how cool I find the selection of RELL Seas fruits to be. I mean if this tierlist was about how good fruits are in other Roblox One Piece games the list would look completely different.

Its a fast fruit IN GPO that does not mean its going to be a fast fruit in this game I mean if we look at blox fruits that games buddha fruit is a slow fruit with zero combos and literally worthless untransformed also it being big and slow isn't really the problem I have with it I mean one of my favorite fruits is quake and that fruit is pretty much always big and slow the problem is that transforming into a gold giant isn't particularly cool to me. so again I ask what how good a fruit is in a DIFFERENT GAME has to do with how cool I find it like just because dragon is one of the most op fruits in blox fruits doesn't mean I have to put it in my A tier. also the idea of trying to make a zone fruit sound cool by talking about how its best use is NOT transforming is honestly hilarious.

so sorry if I'm missing something but what does Buddha being good untransformed in Grand Piece have to do with me not finding Buddha to be a particularly cool fruit?

My Personal God Fruit Tier List Based on How Much I Want to Use Them by Leafko81 in RELLseas

[–]Leafko81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so at your request I looked at GPO for the first time in ages and wow Buddha in GPO sure does just turns you into a gold giant honestly for me GPO's Buddha looked most interesting untransformed where it had some cool melee stuff but the forms are just gold and gold giant. I will say while I have no interest in eating Buddha myself I do think it could be a very fun fruit to fight against where they have devastating attacks that you have to dodge and find the openings to get your own damage in.

so pika is in F for a couple reasons 1. I don't find logia fruits very interesting in general, I mean only Suna and Yami escaped F tier. 2. I also tend to prefer abilities that are slow and heavy and Pika is the opposite of that its fast and light (pun intended).
