Hello
I absolutely love to play healers in group games.
I found it very embarrassing that e.g. there was no healer class in Dragon Age 2 + 3.
In an RPG, role allocation is absolutely crucial and a crucial pillar.
The separation and delimitation of the classes is fundamental and offers a lot of possibilities for the individual classes then their own development story, specializations including quests, spells, associations such as magician guild, monastery, thief hiding place, druid grove, hunter summit, necromancer crypt, church and what everything else about classes has belonged to a community there and its possibilities.
I like it e.g. heal with druid spells. So more the natural magic and its effects. I found that the druid as a healer was always severely disadvantaged compared to clerics and that in the end the magic and its effects were too little differentiated.
Although I generally enjoy healing in RPGs. I mostly play a healer first and let my NPC camarades do the "dirty work".
If this is done well, it will be a completely different gaming experience and that should be it. Depending on the role, it should feel different and be multifaceted.
When I play a barbarian, I don't just want to see a scream of rage. He should play wildly, build up anger and then reduce this anger through possible combat attacks.
If he is the same as a warrior, only has a cry of rage, that is boring uniform porridge.
So different healers are possible, so that a druid specializes in that he also has other healing spells and abilities for a group, for his pet and for himself, than like a cleric, whose spells work much more according to heavenly magic and belief, in contrast to natural magic of a druid, which also involve strong healing over time.
I hope that in addition to the actual story of the game, I will also be able to tell interesting tale-long side stories for the classes and not only make the game like a tube, like a movie, but also make it wider. The games were designed like Might and Magiec 7, one of my favorite RPGs until today.
Thanks for reading and hopefully you could take something with you.
