Varying Level Up Animations

Potato Basket

Let me preface by saying this could be something to be iterated upon post launch, not necessarily for launch

I don't know why it means so much to me but I absolutely love level up vfx and animations
I feel like each level should carry an identity and characteristics which should be represented

I don't understand why developers don't make each level a completely different one, it will give you something to look forward to and discover on each and every level, also ultimately another reason to play the game and progress

I don't care as much as if every level has the same effect, it actually hurts because in my eyes that's a missed opportunity for creative expression and being lazy

now, there's this belief that the ding should be increasingly better each level but why can't it instead be different on each level so it will feel unique on it's own?

It could represent something related to the challenge or progress each achieved level brings, for example if at level 10 you unlock your primary skill it could have the same vfx flavor of such skill or let's say at level 25 you now can choose your secondary augments, why not visually present that?

There's endless room for creativity and I'd expect this creativity to be expressed in an high fantasy world

You could argue that it would take much work but that's how you differentiate yourself

I thought Intrepid wants to revolutionize the genre

It's free real estate
