Again, enemy control=bad idea. Sorry. Also if you had read the page, you'd realize that he'd had forms for almost any enemy, except they were just recolors or restats. But i guess merging wouldn't work any better than control. Actually, I thought of possessing, but that's really just melted down control.

As stated before, the problems with control are "Obviously, you couldn't control sub-bosses or very strong enemies, but then it's not as fun, and normal enemies will be a bore to work with. But throw in control of sub-bosses and higher, and its overpowered. I have rarely seen a game where enemy control worked well, and I have never seen a MMO that could.

but if the rest approve, i guess it's a go. I suppose it worked ok in Kirby squeak squad, except for it was terrible with bosses (the secret form, which could be acquired from the secret boss. It was a Ghost form, which could possess non-sub-boss enemies. Great except you couldn't go down ladders or through doors without losing your host, and bosses were near impossible).
