Would be interesting if you could unlock a bonus to merchant based on the level of every other profession "Better understanding of the market/goods." then go full on corporate maybe?
However, I do have to point out. This is progress knight...
So... The main profession being military seems implied...
"At the same mindset bonuses to legendary knight for blacksmith/merchant levels? Better gear."
Idk if this is needed but suggestion for after 100kp or 1mp item called discretionary income that costs all the current net total income and adds that amount of platinum to the total happiness. "Not multiplied." This would conveniently prevent an infinitely rising number from inevitably breaking the game.
Edit: I start rambling here.
Secondary suggestion. Buddhism?
Based on the concept of a random saying I once heard in multiple chinese novels that is usually straight ignored or implied as a certain level of hypocritical joke. "Put down the butchers knife and immediately become buddha."
A monk profession that has speed bonus based on evil. No income. But at a certain level, 10k? and evil... 100k? You can purchase levels of nirvana that'll act as another level prestige/rebirth to reset all the numbers.
Because the people usually suggesting those things are evil and indeed it's easier to become evil then to become good. All the evil gains are multiplied by nirvana, but all evil for unlocking the different levels of evil skills are multiplied by 2 for each reset?
Then you could purchase bonuses for individual professions/skills in life with nirvana?
Then even further, going into duality of man route. Could give another level of reset based on demons/angels. Light and dark recycling between the two. The brighter the light the darker the shadow kind of mindset.
Then I guess, time based magical prestige? Once you've lived all the insane amount of total time and with the timespeed magic getting the power to manipulate time seems inevitable?
My ideas are becoming vaguer as I get em because none of this is real and I must have content to have idea. Someday I'll figure out what that there chairman position is...
Collection of Oddities. Functioning like achievements but just weird stuff. Like trying to stably live as a beggar in a grand palace "with all the additional stuff." "Beggar king."
Scholar, "Level 1million student." etc. Wandering legend "become legendary knight whilst never getting a home."
Could lead into a explorer thing. Which is just a total different game, in your game. "an adventure tab." Genuinely uninspiring and boring cliche but... What else would you do with these odd objects if not equip em?
Could go further into the a unique route by making each area you explore have unique animals with their own drops that you can refine into the main combat equipment of this imaginary adventure option through blacksmith job!, to add in another level of infinite GRIND!
Once you've finished this exploration tab, this imaginary I made up based on the imaginary thing I made up. You just go into a a character select... Multiple different rpg like professions. 6-8 whatever. Then you have to deck all of them individual they can only progress whilst your on em in gear, Eventually unlocking a party system for dungeons. After you've completed all the dungeons that presumably each exploration zone has a dungeon with elites of that zones mob as well as a rare boss monster. Allow you to prestige the individual weapons... Into tiers. Like how wow had those seasonal raid/pvp gear. Then of course once you've finished all that and decked your entire team out in epic gear you get to do it again 4 four more times... Now raid party! Complete the raid. And prestige the characters! "They go into the history book as heros now you must exceed them and everything gets harder as you live in their shadows!" NOW DO IT AGAIN! HAHAHAHAHA - YOU SHALL NEVER ESCAPE!!!
Prestige option called end it all unlocks. Welcome embrace of the void.
Now everything fades to dark. Your at the base game no additional functions. BUT YOU ARE GOING INSANE. You must constantly fight to stave off the infection of the void. Which requires you to progress further. In search of the bliss of the end! In search of rest.
Eventually after you've ended it all hundreds of times... The devil shows up... He's gotten bored. This is hell. You've been being tortured this whole time. WHY ARE YOU ENJOYING THIS!
PROMOTION! Now you are an abyssal knight of hell! YAAH! "CONFETTI DROPS... Into a deep endless pit of despair." You've probably gone completely insane. So the game starts constantly begging you to stop. To close the game. TO walk away. To try something new. Your family misses you. WaKE uP!!!
It was all a dream. You are a beggar on the street again. All those of functions of the game. Gone. You made em up. Go again go again go gain!!! 1000 times difficulty to unlock anything. But at least you got a new oddity... A shattered mind. Yep, you've gone insane. It consumes all. Everything loses 1 increment every second not going below 0. You cannot take it off.
At this point anyone playing the game has probably died of old age so you can just stop.
But you won't. Cause you went insane. When you decided to read all of this.
