Rising Star: Ego, Substance Abuse, Skills and Lesson Inequality

The Beta date for Rising Star is set for November 1st after all the hard fork stuff is done, dusted, and hopefully, by then we have a stable blockchain.

Some things I have noticed that would help even out things are:

Skills and Lessons

Everyone is scrambling to gain Drums or Production items as the rare cards give 50+ skills and there are several in both areas.

...'great idea to focus on Orchestra cards, but there are so few that it's just not worth it'...

The word 'rare' is not especially true as every pack contains one, and unlike Magic the Gathering booster packs where there is a single rare card, 3 uncommon, and 11 commons to a single rare, here we have 2 commons and 1 rare per pack.

Should there be an uncommon rarity, and how would that fit in with the packs? Maybe they should contain more cards as three seems a little sparse.

There is a need to have equal numbers of rares, commons, epics, and legendaries for ALL types of instruments.

This way the Grand Piano may have some value (as literally, nobody focuses on keyboards now), with Singing and Guitars being the other ones.

...**'I have several Grand Piano's, but they sit in a corner, unplayed and unloved'*...

Guitar has a legendary instrument that massively boosts your skill possibilities but lacks any rare cards.

I am confident Jux is aware of this, and the instruments are going to have a level playing field in the next month.

Ego Reduction

It has been talked about in the chat channels, and as it stands Ego is permanent and cannot be reduced. A mission should be created to remove some, and it needs to be long and not very productive to the aspiring career of you, the Rising Star.

...**'I can control my large Ego, but not being able to reduce it seems limiting'...*

Going into rehab is never easy, and while this isn't to remove any substance addictions, those hammers you need to hire to bang and reduce the size of your growing head cost.

Substance Abuse

Substance abuse should be another part of Rising Star. Do you know any famous singer or band who has not fallen foul of it? This is another one to think about.

The topics make this look like some kind of serious post. It's just a game and a very addictive one with much potential.
