I like your ideas a lot! I think it should all be in first person point of view. Another way it can work is like this: Story mode: you start off as a tribute (male/female) that the actual game creators have customized. (Now now, hear me out) it starts of with a large cut scene of you (the tribute) walking to the reaping. You stand there in the middle of the crowd and everything goes silent. Finally, your escort stands on stage and reveals the male and female tribute of your district ( you are assigned a random district already) you walk on stage and turn to see the female tribute of your district. The cut scene ten skips to the train ride. Your mentor start discussing different skills and weapons you could be good at. You choose a skill such as edible plant/insect knowledge, knife throwing, spear throwing etc. and then the cutscene leads to you entering the training center. In the training center, there are many centers. Training will last for four days. The first three days will be on your own training. You can practice at the "fire building" section, or learn how to throw knives at the "knife throwing" center. Depending on how long you train with a specific center, the more you level up with that specific section. This will give tributes a type of variety. Some will be great archers, but terrible at Han to hand combat or spear throwing. Some tributes will be good at edible plants and climbing/running, but suck at fighting or weapons etc. after three days if training, you have to go through private sessions. Depending on what you show the game makers will raise your score. You can strive for a higher score, but that will make other tributes want to kill you even more. The same system would work for online gameplay. The whole issue with online would be picking you district. You could customize you own character (male/female) and then when 24 people join a game, a horizontal strip of district numbers will spread across the screen (1-12). Districts would be first-come-first-serve. So everyone would have to pick fast. Each district comes with certain skills. Tributes from 1 would be very skilled with weapons, tributes from 2 would be strong, tributes with 4 would be good t fishing and so on.
