Topic	When a RPG forces you to use a character that you basically ignored.
Solar_Crimson 04/12/17 7:34:41 PM #12:	BiweeklyAaron posted... Good RPG's force you into characters/split the party regularly so that no one falls too far behind. Great RPG's have the characters or mechanics balanced in such a way that the player wants to rotate them regularly. The problem with Stella Glow is that once you get the Witches up and running, you have no real reason to use anyone else but Alto (the MC) and the Witches. It doesn't help that out of 14 (maybe 15?) characters, you can typically only use 6-7 in a battle (or even 8 in rare cases; it depends on who is required), and Alto is required in every storyline battle. So, you wind up in those occasional situations where the game forces you to use potentially underleveled characters, such as the battle I'm at now, as well as an earlier one before the big plot twist where you have to use several potentially-underleveled characters. --- http://i.imgur.com/wKOoZkP.jpg http://i.imgur.com/mipFVFw.png http://backloggery.com/SolarCrimson <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:877080395] in When a RPG...
