Knowledge System:
Basically we're creating new XP system without calling it an XP points with little
uniqueness to it. By this knowledge, players can know how to wield powerful
artifacts, using abilities, skills, how to use legendary artifacts and weapon
archetype and learning to talk languages around universe and the talent to read
ancient tongue, etc..,
While XP is something that we gain and use it for level up attr/. but in our case
knowledge is gained from anything and it is not used to upgrade any attr/. but you
need knowledge to requirements of stuffs to do like equipping weapon or upgrading
and almost everything in the game.
Cosmic Fragments:
Players need to collect Cosmic Fragments by defeating enemies and exploring
universe. What is Cosmic Fragments? these fragments are the knowledge of every
being that we are encountering. Higher beings and difficult Foes can contain more
knowledge. It's not just gained by defeating enemies alone. This can be gained by
completing quests. But how can knowledge be a reward?
Cosmic Well:
players need to integrate the cosmic fragments inside the cosmic well and dwell
into it and concentrate inside the cosmic well to gain knowledge that poured inside
the mere fragments. that's how players basically level up.
Think of it like souls currency from dark souls but we're not going to use it for
upgrade the stats like strength, stamina, intellect, etc..,
we're going to learn new things based on the fragments that we collect.
for example, we have abilities, skills, artifacts, higher artifacts, weapon types,
etc.., lets say we have higher being fragments and low minded fragments and few
more like it based on the enemy type and difficulty and this counts for the quest
also like based on the difficulty of the quest. so what we're going to do is, we
need to separate the types of cosmic fragments based on what i said above and
respectively gain the knowledge and allocate what we intended to do.
Knowledge can be diminished by certain deaths like mindless mourner can kill you
and suck your knowledge and more.
