What would you guys like to see in a Metaphor Refantazio 2?

Personally i would like to see more of a multi-class system for the Archetypes, like in what you see in DnD. Basically, create hybrids between 2 or more Archetypes.

Basically a updated version of the Skill Inherit system.

▲ 1 r/Zoids

In my fic idea, each member of the Blitz team (Plus a few of the extra members) gain new Zoids/new power-up parts for their Zoids.

Bit and his Liger Zero gain the Jet Falcon Fuzor Zoid to form Liger Zero Falcon

Leena and her Gunsniper received the fan-made Blox Zoid, Disparate, a bull-type Zoid that is the based on the Dibison, similar to Dispellow. When combined with her Gunsniper to form GunDisparate.

Brad and his Shadow Fox receive the Golden Bat. A bat-type Zoid based on the Zabat. It combines with the Shadow Fox to form the Golden Fox.

Jamie and his Raynos receive the Sniptera. A Zoid based on the Snipteras from Zoids Wild Zero. It combines with the Raynos to form Ptera-Raynos.

Vega and his Berserk Fury receive the Jagd and Sturm CAS, as well the Buster Eagle Fuzor Zoid, which can combine with the Berserk Fury to form the Buster Fury.

Leon's red Blade Liger receives Attack Boosters.

Naomi's Gunsniper is wrecked during a battle and she buys a Konig Wolf equipped with a duel-sniper rifle to replace it.

Harry Champ and his bots buy Chimera Zoids from Alpha Richter, not knowing that they are funding a domestic terrorist. Harry is given the Brachiozilla and it's Fuzor partner, the Missile Tortoise. While his nanny bots are given the DimetroPtera and the LeoGator.

RD is a member of the Savage Hammer in this continuity, and they are a S-Rank Team. He pilots the Energy Liger, and they later receive the Energy Kong Fuzor Zoid from a kind old doctor. Together they combine to form the Energy Ray Liger.

Blake starts off with the Gairyuki, and later receives the EvoFlyer and the Dispellow Fuzor Zoids, allowing him to form either Gairyuki Speed or Gairyuki Destroy.

Sigma and Amy later join Alpha Richter after being fired from Mach Storm for being bad pilots. They are given the Scissor Storm and the Laser Storm Fuzor Zoids, which can combine with Alpha's Seismosaurus to form the Ultimate Seismo.

▲ 10 r/Zoids

After becoming a S-Class Team, the Blitz Team realize that they need rich sponsors to help them, as they realize that all the other teams have heavily modified Zoids that can keep up with the Liger Zero and their other zoids, not only that but all the other teams have rich sponsors that pay for their Zoids' repair and equipment.

The Blitzes have a few offers but are unsure on who to choose, Harry tries to become their sponsor but gets kicked in the groin by Leena.

This is when a little girl, about 8 years old, skips to them while they are having lunch and hands Bit a hand-written letter, it's from the girl's parents, invinting them over their table.

The parents are Konohana Sakura and her husband, Soma Sakura. Konohana is the CEO of Sakura Industries, and they are known for making high-performance, experimental Zoids.

She and her husband, as well as their daughter, are Zoids fanatics and are doing research on how to create Zoids Cores, as well as funding expeditions to re-start the Zoid Eve so more wild Zoids will appear. They love Zoids THIS much.

Konohana and Soma are interested in the Liger Zero and want to sponsor the Blitz Team in order to run tests on the Liger. They promise big salaries to everyone in the team, new parts and a place to sleep that is not the Hover Cargo.

Dr.Toros wants to accept the offer immetiely but the rest of the team stops them because the Sakuras are suspicious. Before leaving, Konohana tells Bit to say hi to Zeke for her and Soma, this confuses Bit a lot.

Bit talks to the Liger that night about some weird people who want to sponsor them in exchange of checking the Liger out, and he mentions the name Zeke. This causes the Liger to start acting strangely.

Bit convinces the rest of the team to accept the offer so he can find out what's going on with Liger.

Turns out the Sakura also hired Stoller, Vega and his mother to work for them as the newest Blitz Team members.

The Blitzes and their allies find out more about the origins of the Liger Zero and the Berserk Fury, as well more about Bit's and Vega's past.

Notes:

The Sakuras introduce the Fuzors to the world of Zoids. They give Bit and his Liger the Jet Falcon Fuzor, allowing them to form the Liger Zero Falcon. The 3 CAS armors are still used frequently as they are too useful and cool to be left out.

Vega and his Fury receive the Sturm and Jagd CAS armors, as well as the Buster Eagle Fuzor Zoid, which allows them to form the Buster Fury.

Turns out the Sakuras mapped out Bit and Vega's ancestry and found out they are the descendents of Van and Raven, which is why the Liger and the Fury only respond to them, the 2 Zoids are actually Zeke and Shadow permanently fused to the Zoids of their old masters.

One of the main rival teams is Savage Hammer from Zoids Fuzors, Blake is their leader and he pilots the Gairyuki.

RD is a part of the Savage Hammer team and he pilots the Energy Liger. He's still a good guy but he fell with bad company after leaving Mach Storm.

The Mach Storm team are C Rankers who struggle to rank-up due to being very mediocre, Sigma often took his frustrations out on RD by verbally abusing him, even tho RD was their strongest member despite being high-school aged. The bullying caused him to leave.

In disgust, Helmut quit the team, but not after punching Sigma and calling him a disgrace. Helmut would go on to join the Peace-Keeping Bureau with his highly customized Command Wolf.

Sweet quits the team as well and now works as a transporter. She wants to become a pop idol in the future.

She's related to Gummie, being his niece. Gummie basically adopts RD after he quit Mach Storm and tries to get him to quit the Savage Hammer, as he sees them as a bunch of cheating thugs.

Alpha Richter sponsors Savage Hammer.

Ruuji exists along with his Murasame Liger, as well as other members of Genesis' main cast.

Digald is a military-ran country, they were a small nation ran by a dictator (Jiin). Jiin is a super genius and manages to create the Bio Zoids after decades upon decades of research.

Soma used to be a S-Rank pilot before retiring, his Zoid is the Trinity Liger.

Him and Konohana only have 1 biological child, but essentially adopt Bit as their own son, and legally adopt Ruuji after Digald's Bio Raptors eat his family.

They are also the parental figures of another OC of mine. Tekka.

Tekka grew up in a church as a orphan but left in order to become a Zoids pilot. The backdraft group tricks him into becoming their test pilot. Often testing their most dangerous Zoids.

Tekka would go on to bond with one of their most dangerous Zoids, the Geno Hydra, created from the remains of the 3 Geno Saurers Vega destroyed.

Realizing that Geno Hydra was scared and alone, Tekka ran away with it in order to protect it, and ends up in the care of the Sakura family, and later joins the Blitz Team.

Konohana pilots the Victory Liger.

▲ 26 r/Zoids

If you guys could direct the next Zoids game, what would you make?

I would like to make a RPG just like Zoids Saga, with all Zoids from Chaotic Century to Genesis (No Wilds, sorry)

Another option would be a new Zoids VS game.
