At the moment I'm thinking to something like this:
We will remove the sense of urgency, and any timings. We will remove the doors, and the level will be explorable without constraints.
When you arrive in the Dryken Plane (DP) a cinematic of your character in front of the portal with normal skin , then particle effect to show your essence shatters in small pieces scattered around the plane, then your skin becomes dark, drained of energy.
3-eyed creature you can speak with him along the journey. New dialogues should unlock based on the location, explaining what you saw up to that point (new elements)
You find magical places in the plane, where two shards are rotating (purple and blue, similar to the one we have in the DP now). You may hear a voice “Those are personality shards, pieces of your soul or other people's souls. You should choose the one that’s yours and reconstruct your original essence.
You have choice to make for each pair of shards you find around the plane.
These are the couples I have at the moment:
Social | Solitary
Bold | Cautious
Organized | Creative
Lawful | Rebellious
Impulsive | Thoughtful
There is another one I'm not very convinced of, as it's less of a personality and more of a lifestyle: Physical Strength | Mental Strength ( Mind | Body )
When you pick one should give you a bit of a text like: "You see yourself being more social and open to relations, ... bla bla bla..."
As soon as you pick one, your body starts to reconstruct (for now will probably be just the color from dark to normal)
To exit the final portal you will have to pick all the shards (one per pair)
Thoughts?
