What is something you want that has never been done in a RPG before?
Could be anything. Be it some simple menu option or the way the story is conducted! Have any fresh ideas?
I once thought of this cool game that advances in gameplay and graphics as you get further into the adventure. It starts out as a very basic ancient PC-type game, but by the end it looks and feels just as good as a modern day game.
Story wise, the only real way to pull it off would be to have a self aware sort of deal with a comedic edge.
What are your ideas?
There is that evolution game that people praised until it came out and was super generic and got a lot of flack for just being a gimmick. And then they tried to rectify it by releasing a new version with more fleshed out story or something. I haven't checked out either version, I just know their existence
For me, it was and has pretty much always been a good RPG that has a fighting game for the enemy encounter fights
Some notable games that almost got it were Xenogears, and Legend of Legaia. I -almost- got what I wanted with Tales of Xillia. The battle system in that game is so fast, and active, and insane, and all about quickly moving around in the fight and pulling off your moves. It's probably as close as I'll ever get. And even better that I loved the characters and the story was fairly unique and well done
But nobody has ever completely pulled it off. But I got my first taste with Soul Calibur 3 having a strategy game where encounters were just stage fights
This would be impossibe to pull off, but your party being imported characters from other games. Like you choose whoever you want and you get up to, I dunno, 10 characters, and you can pick 10 new ones next time and it can be ANY CHARACTERS and your game will make them react and speak accordingly
It will never never happen and I don't expect it to, but that's like my RPG fantasy
If there was an RPG Maker equivalent of the fighting game engine/maker MUGEN, there would be hundreds of these xD Though they'd probably all be like the bottom feeders of FanFiction.net lolOriginally Posted by Pumpkin
Choice of voice actor for your custom character depending on which gender you make. I've seen this done on wrestling games so it might have been done in a RPG already.
I knew about that, but when I thought of the idea it was before that existed. Plus, the way I imagine it is much larger in scope and would toy with advantages/disadvantages of using tropes from all eras of gaming, including future ones to even table top games.
The keep the thread going, another thing I can think of that might be cool is a game where you play as a character who gets corrupted about half way through the game. Like, full on evil. From there you can either choose to take on the now evil protagonist or continue with the evil protagonist and try to have evil win the day. Yeah, yeah, some games sort of did stuff like that, but to me that was only scratching the surface of how far you could take that sort of idea. I imagine two very different games. And then a new game plus mode where the evil turn can happen at various points to spice things up. A very compelling and cool story could be made out of something like that.
An RPG where your avatar dialogue is written by you so you can truly role-play. The game would actually react to your comments and the plot could change based on your actions.
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
Ooh, ooh! This too. I thought about this eons ago, but forgot all about it.
Cool idea, but man, that would be hard to implement. Then again when I was a kid I thought all the touch screen based technology in Start Trek: TNG was very futuristic and that we wouldn't have something like that in many decades, so you never know!
Pie like to see them play around with face recognition technology for a true role play experience.
*i'd not pie
Holodeck
The closest you can really get to Wolf's idea now is RPG Maker.Cool idea, but man, that would be hard to implement.

No one would ever see me again because of porn.Holodeck
That's right, I would load a computer in there and surf the internet! I am a dirty man!
Live A Live kinda did it.I knew about that, but when I thought of the idea it was before that existed. Plus, the way I imagine it is much larger in scope and would toy with advantages/disadvantages of using tropes from all eras of gaming, including future ones to even table top games.

I always wanted to see a game that looks like Amano's artwork. Not just Amano-inspired monster designs or portraits - I want the whole game to look like a flowy, Amano painting.

I feel like you could do that without the holodeck
