I'm not sure that is the fault of the equipment system at all, but
the inbalance that happens when you've got an active, competitive
market with a limited number of different items of ranging
qualities.
For instance, if you made it so that there were only 8 different
types of weapons, all available from the start, and your experience
dictated the moves you can use with them, the choice of weapons
would become more important than the quality of the weapon. If you
made the difference in quality more than damage/accuracy - ie a
bamboo sword doesn't set off metal detectors, a steel sword has
higher durability and won't break as easily or lose sharpness, an
aluminum rapier is quicker to recover after a parry - then the
choices aren't made based on the competitive number crunching, but
on strategy and problem solving.

It's not that they were taken away, but that they just were never
put there in the first place...
- Limited usefulness. Even though an ability can use about a
half-dozen enhancements, you are pretty much going to want to
stick to maybe two or three. Damage, Accuracy, and Recharge. The
rest you COULD use, but you would probably be better ignoring the
knockback for an additional Damage/Accurage/Recharge enhancement.
- Limited variety. All enhancements are exactly the same size and
differ only in type and level - level being of importance only in
that it is too high, too low, or within a three (?) level
difference to your level. What would happen if you had a superior
Damage enhancement, but it took up two side-by-side slots? It
would suddenly matter where you put the enhancements you might
want to drop later - put them side by side, just in case.
- Limited logistics. It doesn't matter where you put the
enhancements. What if the enhancements are more effective the
closer the are to the left side? What if putting two competing
enhancements next to each other reduced the effectiveness of both?
What if putting two accuracy enhancements next to each other
boosted their respective power slightly? Maybe a half damage/half
accuracy enhancement which only works when surrounded by the same
enhancement type?
- Limited novelty. They are all sort of boring. They just
enhance. What about a Berserk enhancement which gives you +5% to
damage and +20% to recharge, but -25% to accuracy? Maybe an
enhancement which increases accuracy at night, but lowers accuracy
during the day? Or a wheel-of-fortune wheel which constantly
turns, and has effects based on which side is up? Three slices
could significantly boost the skill, but one slice can render the
skill almost useless - meaning when you used the skill would make
a difference. What about an enhancement which just changes the
color of your attack to plaid?
- Limited breadth. Can only be used to improve individual
skills. Why not allow enhancements works on sets of skills?
Improve the fire damage for all primary or secondary skills? Or
have personal enhancements which don't affect the skills, but your
character? For example, if your pre-ordered, you got some sprint
skills which added bubbles when you ran. Well, why not do that
without it being a skill? Who wouldn't want to create a character
which dripped green slime when just standing still or randomly
screamed out obsceneties? Just fun little cosmetic effects to your
character could still be enhancements.
These things would make the enhancement system a more interesting
part of gameplay without significantly impacting the quick and fun
aspect of the game.

Because you only buy enhancements and inspirations, which are so
lifeless that they aren't interesting to buy, and so common, that
you will likely find all the enhancements you need between each
level marker. In all honesty, you could probably dump the shops from
the game and it would actually improve because there would be a
player market for enhancements.

I'm talking about "gameplay" being the choices. Game design includes
gameplay and lot more.

I'm not one of those virtual world guys. :)
The process of design does dictate which decisions you can offer to
the player. But I am of the firm belief that even with a quick to
get into, highly rewarding, playing for only 15 minutes game, you
can still provide obscene depth of gameplay. I dare you to find a
deeper game than Tetris, Super Mario Bros 3, or Unreal Tournament.
Of course, there are plenty of dense games out there that are deep
too - Morrowind, Deus Ex, Thief, System Shock 2, Fallout, etc. They
are difficult to get into and reward players who get past the
learning curve. But just being difficult to get into does not mean
it is deep, or vice versa.

Big fan of the overall vision here :) I'm in agreement with "the
quality without a name" and harmonic design and all sorts of fancy
ways of saying that the big picture is how the parts interact, and
not the individual parts themselves.
CoH has a lot of great parts, but the gameplay does not support
those parts as well as it should. When you see a billboard for Coke,
and no matter how nice the shot is, or how professionally done it
is, if the model is missing an eye, the entire billboard fails its
purpose.
> I'd say then that my reply is, why is a game bad because it has a
> more limited number of meaningful choices?
I didn't say it was bad. I like CoH a lot. I'm saying that the
gameplay is shallow and shouldn't be pointed to as a good example of
good gameplay. A limited number of meaningful choices is limited
gameplay, and that's all I really wanted to make clear. It's just
that with CoH, lots of people love it and attribute the mystical and
undefined "gameplay" when they mean everything but.

Tetris was what Tetris needed to be. CoH is not what CoH needs to
be. It's like the model with the eye socket. I'm extremely sensitive
to game design which is at odds with itself. There are parts of CoH
pulling one direction while other parts are pulling in others. The
MMORPG side says that there needs to be more meaningful player
interaction and ways to affect the world you play in. The online
monthly fee says that you should play the game forever, but the
simplistic gameplay side wants to be played for a few weeks,
dropped, and forgotten about.

I've found that each profession in game development has their own
little world that they live in, complete with unique vocabulary and
values. I'm kind of a writer/artist now, and I find that I don't
agree with the values I held when I was a programmer anymore. I view
it as looking back on a high school yearbook picture when you had a
mullet. :)
