Here's what I've noticed about the ZT RPG Battle Mod.

It has a card game. Interesting, I could go for that, but I can live without it. Revan's doesn't.
It has summons. Revan's doesn't have it, but you can make a shop and "simulate" summons, which is the same effect, really.
It seems to have a different cash system than uShop & uCash. I prefer uShop, which Revan's uses.
It has a job system that pays. Revan's "class" system (which is a job system) doesn't pay, but that's okay.
You can own an item and not have to equip it. I can live without that.
It seems to have bots. I want this! Revan's mod has this on the way, though. So that's good.

The thing I noticed about ZT's that I didn't like was how it operated. It was similar, but navigation was... clunkier. The templates weren't NEARLY as clean (then again, it could have just been the style of the forum, and I'm not a fan of non-fixed widths). Also, you cannot see your character when battling. Not a big deal, since in Revan's it shows your character but they're not animated or funtional.. just a preference. It is costly. Note that I'm not cheap, and some mods I'm willing to pay for, but with the mod like Revan's existing, I can't justify spending 30 to 60 dollars for a license for ZT's. I know ZT's has a cool feature on the way called "RPG World." When this is done, I might be jumpin' trains.. but who knows? That's a long time from now.

No one seems to want to list exact advantages of Inferno over RPG Integration System because there are not that many. People say "You just have to try it out . . . try it . . . try that." Well I browsed all of the battle system posts this weekend, and I browsed folks' websites with the system and registered, including the Inferno forum, and I "tried it." I did not see a 30 to 60 dollar difference at this point in time. :/

Regardless, you can't ask me "If I'm mad," I should really be asking you the same question at this point. Though ZT's project started sooner than Revan's, they're pretty much at similar points, and Revan's appears to be a lot cleaner. I mean no disrespect to ZT's, because I know that's a HELL of a lot of hard work and there is more on the way, but.. at this point in time, with Revan's available, I cannot justify the cost.

We'll see what both coders bring us in the future; they are both very talented and I look forward to seeing the battle systems battle it out. :P
