Bill had suggested I go with episodes. I know Jay (Rampant Coyote) started off that way but soon expanded out until it got crazy. I think he has something like 100+ spells, for instance.
I plan to talk more about this in my dev diary, but it appears from reading that almost EVERY aspiring game maker suffers from the problem of taking on too much. Ultimately, I think, it's PAINFUL for creative, ambitious types to have to realize that even making something "only" as good as Diablo or Final Fantasy is WAY, WAYYYY beyond their means.
Yup, that's a great idea!!!

Anyway, I'll shut up and talk more in my diary.
