    If its a typical publisher does only marketing and distribution while developer uses own expenses for game development, its probably 50/50 or 60/40. But again this is based on my experience with mobile games model. Could be different for this kind of publishing.

    Cthulhu horror will be great. Though it works best by not being very specific in the lore similar to Dark Souls and Demon Souls for it to work very well.

    This setting. Mostly untouched, unexplored, loads of potential.

    Dev can and should once in a while have fun designing their own games. Adds in loads of personality into it. Remember Ribsmasher?

    Personally, I like for them to explore the Victorian setting similar to Arcanum but minus the non-subtle magic. What I would like is an atmosphere comparable to Sherlock Holmes setting intertwined with Cthulhu mythos. You gather investigators to unravel mysteries of the occult that leads to go against the unexplainable and the unbelievable. And you are equipped only with utilising the era's firearms, clues and information, traditional gypsie charms, and whatever relics and runes uncovered from the mystery. Basically, Elder Signs the true RPG.

    Plus you can use tanks, Dreadnaughts, Terminators. Good times. Imagine if the entire gameplay is managed like JA2.

    As much as I want to say something nice about the music... I'm just not feeling anything for it. It feels bland. It needs a more distinct melody.
  8. Zoma
    JA-Style tactical RPG is possible. At least, the combat portion was done before in Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate.

    Pretty sure if its easily done, Obsidian would had done it a long time ago instead of using original IP. Feargie knows the estimated number needed behind every proposed project. Anyway. 2 cents.
  10. Zoma
    Sure. Making an RPG game with proper depth like Pillars of Eternity is far more time consuming, more expensive than a simplified "borehammer" gameplay meant for mobile games that could be made within a year. The cost isn't justifiable and you're pretty much better off making original IPs instead.

    Many game companies would love to have their hands on the 40K license. In previous interviews with Obsidian, Obsidian did express strong interest in making games for 40K. The main hurdle is licensing cost, publisher's interest and what sort of RPG should be made out of it. A Mass Effect like RPG? Unlikely as it will carry a budget cost of AAA titles. Wastleland 2 quality? Maybe. But again it depends on the licensing cost, which should not be cheap considering Games Workshop is very protective of their property. Just hope Obsidian's PE will be a success, and one day Games Workshop might be willing to work together with Obsidian to make such game without a need for publisher.

    As mentioned in the other thread, creating a World in Conflict clone would seem far better. You get infantry and air units, plus making them upgradable and customisable.
  13. Zoma
    So. A World of Tanks clone? I rather hope it would be a World in Conflict Clone with upgradable / customizable units.

    In what way is this even remotely "fun?" Its not the exact cooking mini-game as Dragon's Crown. Minus all the button smashing. Just an optional food allocation system that could grant bonus. Its more of the concept of food distribution during rest at camp similar to Expeditions: Conquistador, or eating food in Fallout New Vegas, which you receive temporary bonus (Or penalties) for a duration of time in the game depending on what kind of food was allocated to the party member. I'm not referring to cooking mama style.
  16. Zoma
    Any implementation of cooking food during rest? Taking the approach from Dragon's Crown, cooking and allocating food to the respective party members would give them temporary bonus depending on the type of food given. Some party members may prefer one kind of food over the other.
  17. Zoma
    You'll need more than 4.1 million dollar budget to achieve that.
  18. Zoma
    Or it could be Matt and Trey rewriting scripts along the development resulting in redesigning levels and new voice overs. Just a guess.
  19. Zoma
    Why childish?

    I always felt anime itself is simply a different medium to tell a story. Just like television shows are ranging from Saturday morning kid's show to midnight CSI series for example. It all depends on the market audience the anime strives to cater to. Animes like Ghost in the Shell, Tokyo Godfathers, Jin Roh and even Studio Ghibli's recent movie The Wind Rises are catered to the adults. Attack on Titans is catered towards teenagers, but that doesn't stop an adult like me to enjoy the show with its intriguing setting, cliffhanger style arcs of the plot and the intense action it delivers. But its a show that is not without flaws such as . However, the redeeming side of the show would be . I personally prefer the story going through the direction of . Anyway, I still enjoy the show despite the flaws. The story got better in the manga though as the author got better in his storytelling style.

    I'm currently alternating between Dragon's Crown and Murasama Rebirth on my Vita during spare time. Kinda wish there's someone I could play Vita multiplayer with, but since I'm presently residing in China there's a high shortage of Vita buddies here.

    On the side note, there's a DS game for it coming out. I have strong reservations about it though. Personal gripes: I wish the game takes place on the perspective of original recruits than the characters from the anime. Web slinging gameplay looks kind of lazy compared to the indie game (Grappling hooks being shot at the sky instead of the buildings) Graphical quality and animation isn't that good for a published game. Why no Vita version? :/ However. Some high-speed action moves looks awesome and intense. Game could be equally brutal. From what it was shown, it seemed to be a one-hit kill gameplay. Playable Coop.
  24. Zoma
    Ah. Gotcha.

    The game is made with a super deformed style in mind, hence the "cuteness" in the character design. Yes, the titans are supposed to be naked. Here is the example from the source material: Perhaps its due to the low graphical and polygon quality that makes the titans look very odd indeed.
