Do whatever you want. I think as long as it works and it's fun, I'm game. I don't want the DBS. It hinders the game and the balance. So if each chapter is its own balance and gameplay it will be a lot of fun. And the plot will also be a major point (I hope). Have fun people!

A word of warning if I may:

Don't do too complex systems. I don't think there would be anything more annoying than having to learn a new complex battle system every 20 minutes. Keep it simple and more importantly FUN!
<Drule> I can play the didgeridoo actually
<Drule> some guy on the street taught me
<Drule> come to think of it
<Drule> it was pretty gross how I played on his didgeridoo

so wrong...

So, will this have multiple characters or just one guy? Seeing as there is no DBS...

I don't see how that should affect the number of party members. There can still be multiple characters, they just can't all battle. Does a novel have more than one character even though it doesn't have a battle system? (what an awful example)

I pity the man who bases the number of party members in his game around the DBS!

Haha, yeah, what an awful example. I view it like this; the player can "control" a party for story purposes, and while the one guy is fighting another one guy in whatever zany CBSes are made, the other party members are fighting their own battles simultaneously. I mean, it doesn't matter much to me how people handle it, but that is an easy out, right?

And gameplay doesn't necessarily have to be based on "Battles." It could also consist of puzzles or riddles or any other creative ways to get the story going. Hell, you can have your chapter be an interactive story or something I don't care. Just don't use the DBS for the love of God.

Being an alternate feels good. I now know how Flik always feels in my Suikoden playthroughs.

So... how do you decide what alternative is called upon in times of dire need? (read: if someone folds)

A little update on my part:

Finished an intro and around 50 % of actual game(play) on my chapter. I will be able to finish it on the weekend, so sit on tight!

Here's a little teaser:

<Drule> some guy on the street taught me
<Drule> come to think of it
<Drule> it was pretty gross how I played on his didgeridoo

I've been thinking, maybe there should be a Chain Game 4 main theme (I'm talking about music of course).

I could work on one this weekend sometime perhaps. I'll have to wait until I play DP's first chapter though.
