Hmm, interesting.

Implementation notes:

• Something like a max weight limiter would be fairly straightforward for whale tf
• The pen & paper is a lot trickier though since every scene would have to be rewritten to support it -- and even then that assumes you have dexterous hands.

In general design-wise though, I think there's two elements here:

1) Having the ability to do more stuff when softlocked -- which will be part of the overall push towards more replayability moving forward
2) Having the ability to play as extreme forms without having to deal with their limitations. This could be neat for aesthetic theming, but does it take away from the uniqueness of that form? That's one of the unique elements of Underworld versus other tf games, is that the TF's aren't just flavor text but significantly impact the way you play the game.

Basically my question to myself being 'after content is more replayable, does it still make sense to have methods to 'soften' the extremely restrictive tfs?'. However, open to further discussion on this thread

For now, I'm going to close because my thoughts are more along the lines of 'instead of soften the limitations, add more replayable content for them'.
