FFVI Worlds Collide

I think that scaling enemies is a great way to start the game and learn it. Once you've really memorized locations and have routing established, I feel like the proper "hard" or "tournament" type of logic would be to run without the scaling. Yes, it's easy to completely overpower enemies once you get really good equipment (Which can easily happen). That's a little tougher when scaling is turned off. I thought it would be interesting if you could have a scaling feature but include a "+X levels" scale on ROM generation. So basically, the enemies will scale, but they'll also be X levels higher than the party is. This adds a level of difficulty to it.

As for shops/equipment, the more difficult, but I think possibly better option, would be to change it from a flat randomized price to randomizing the base cost of the item from X to +/- Y% which is generated randomly for each item. For example, if an item normally costs 100, it could randomize down to 10 or up to 1000 or even 10000 (Not sure what the limits you'd place on the % would be, mostly up to you). For the good/rare equipment, I'd say start their cost at maybe 50000 or 100000, maybe even higher, and then do another +/- Y%, though probably on a softer set of limits than basic items and equipment. This allows them to still be put into the pool but harder to buy as easily in the early game.

Obviously these would all be more complicated to implement but I think, personally, would make a better experience. I'm definitely having a ton of fun with the first couple seeds I've generated (Haven't finished one yet but I also haven't really "tried" to either...) and can't wait to see where this goes!
