i just wanted to put this out here for inspiration more then something else. the only thing i feel im missing so far in this game is a way to specialize and feel different then someone that just got the same weapon as i did.. having a tool kit you can carry around and improve on.
and to this end i would like to suggest NRFTW devs try out an indie game i have tried recently and i tought.. this should be in NRFTW it would take this game from S tier to SSS tier.. please look at how >>Project gorgon<< brings skills build and upgrade from weapons.. they basicaly make you find gears or skill builds either from interaction with hidden npc or things.. or finding some weapons.. then once you have it.. as long as you use this type of weapon you level up your proficiency with it and unlock new skills for that weapon.. which you can then improve upon with stats from gears.. meaning you can become a tailor by helping some random npc that happens to know tailoring or learn to use a shield from helping another npc that collects shield and so on.. then the more you use a weapon the more skills you unlock for this weapon type.. but you can still ever use 6 (would be 4 for no rest for the wicked probably) ..
i tought it could inspire you guys and maybe help yall come out with something unique for no rest 
i personally think it makes the world more.. alive and immersion much stronger even considering the dated graphics of PG.. anways good work to moonstudios and whatever you choose to do with my suggestion im sure yall will hit it out of the ball park! awesome work so far!
