If you could remake any RPG
Just wondering, if you could remake any RPG and improve the graphics, speed, gameplay, all that Jazz which would it be? Would you bring an old classic out from the breath of fore series's? Or would you go like what they are doing now with Mother beginnings? Or maybe try to get Tatics Ogre redone and turn a new generation on to this epic game. Which would you choose to do.
The original Final Fantasy, solely because I would have more legroom with the story than any of the others since there wasn't much of it to begin with.
If I was feeling particularly courageous, I would give FFVI the same treatment FF VII is getting.
I'd love to remake VI as well, it's one of those games that once I got it, it never left my system for years. No statagy guide it was just me exploring it for the first time finding everything. I'd play it everyday for at least an hour for the first year I owned it. Beat it multiple times and would play again in a second if I didn't need a new controller for the system. (Got one on the way thanks to eBay) I still remember when you would find something new like finding Gogo when you thought your party was done for after getting eaten. Or the joys of the first time equipping the Moogle charm then heading up the Fanatics tower. Still love that game. (Runs off to check the mail box for the controller)
Morrowind but all I want are better graphics and combat mechanics - I want the rest to stay exactly the same.
I suggest you look into the Skywind project, if you haven't already, since that is more or less what they're trying to accomplish. Morrowind with a Skyrim facelift.Originally Posted by Pike
Although, I'm not sure if they're doing anything about the combat.
I have played Skywind and while I enjoy it from a sort of "it's fun to mess around with" perspective it also changes too many of the fundamentals. It's basically just an addon to Skyrim, whereas I want Morrowind with a couple of small changes.
edit: thinking about it now I could also go for the original Deus Ex but with a facelift.
edit edit: also I want Arena and Daggerfall with combat/graphics updates.
triple edit: throw Fallout 1 & 2 into the mix.
Chrono Trigger.
I didn't even realize the game was at a point where it could be played.
I'm bad at keeping up with these things.
I don't think it is but they had an alpha release floating around at one point and I messed around with it. I don't think you can download it anymore.
Thinking about it, I could go for Oblivion redone in the Skyrim engine. I think someone might be doing that? If so I'm down with it.
FFVII was my big one. I'd like to see FFVI remade for 3DS.
Other than that, I'd really like to see Ocarina of Time remade with Twilight Princess graphics.
Probably Xenogears, it's a game that needs a legitimate remake in order to finish it. The story is still great but the rest of it hasn't aged as well as I would have liked.
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...
The pre-Morrowind TES games for WRPGs, and for JRPGs, probably FF1 for the reasons mentioned by ToriJ. Also, Excelsior.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Digimon World. Have some more evolutions, a bigger island to explore with more townspeople to recruit, and character customization.
Xenogears. Disc 2 needs to be done in the same style as disc 1.
Think of your favorite SRPG
I would give it a world map. Towns. NPCs. Exploration. Down-time
My gut-reaction would be to just update Shining Force with Fire Emblem Awakening graphics. Which would make me completely blow my load in the end, for sure. But it could easily be done in reverse as well. Give Fire Emblem, Shining Force's exploration, towns, overworld, and all that jazz. And every other JSRPG ever
Ah...
