October 16, 201114 yr I'm hoping for Avatar: The Last Airbender. They could have an elemental combination system like the combination attack system in Phantasy Star 4, Chrono Trigger, and Dragon Age. It could be done with either a party based RPG or an First/Third person shooter/RPG/adventure game. If it's a party based RPG then you can have different characters in the party execute attacks at the same time to create the new effect like they do in Phantasy Star 4 and Chrono Trigger if it's turn based, or like Dragon Age if it's real time. If it's a First/Third person shooter/RPG/adventure game then you'll probably be playing as the Avatar then you could tie different attacks to different buttons and if you press the buttons at the same time then it creates a combination attack. You can also have the option of tying a combination attack to a button once you've discovered it.
October 17, 201114 yr I had always wanted a Duckula RPG in the Ravenloft setting. Definitely has the potential to be a masterpiece of Gothic-poultry existentialism.
October 18, 201114 yr This would be horrible. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
October 18, 201114 yr What kind of game publisher does have access to "leading animation franchise" IPs? Disney? Warner? Anyone else? Tron RPG? Rain makes everything better.
October 18, 201114 yr Tron RPG? THAT would be awesome. Some of my Youtube Classic Roland MT-32 Video Game Music videos | My Music | My Photography

October 19, 201114 yr Author Obsidian is hiring senior/intermediate level designers for their highly stylized 2D RPG.
October 19, 201114 yr Obsidian is hiring senior/intermediate level designers for their highly stylized 2D RPG. Sounds pretty good. Love of computer and console role-playing/action games Looks like its going to be (unsurprisingly) more of an action-rpg too. That said, considering the subject matter (animation franchise) thats probably not a bad decision.
October 20, 201114 yr Looks like its going to be (unsurprisingly) more of an action-rpg too. That said, considering the subject matter (animation franchise) thats probably not a bad decision. Unless they release a fully indie game, I don't see any publisher giving them money to make a "proper" rpg. Hate the living, love the dead.
October 20, 201114 yr Dave Hoffman from Square Enix said this on Twitter four hours ago: "just got back from Dream Works Animation Studios. Saw a sneak peek screening of Puss in Boots. Two thumbs up on that movie!" Maybe related? Hate the living, love the dead.
October 20, 201114 yr I seriously doubt it. EDIT: By the way, is it just me or are the requirements for the position kind of.. ludicrous? I'm not an expert on game development, but isn't it kind of difficult to find a senior level designer who also has experience as an illustrator? Edited October 20, 201114 yr by WorstUsernameEver
October 20, 201114 yr Author http://www.formspring.me/JESawyer/q/251012524428761868 Zane Lyon is still working as project director on one of Obsidian's unannounced projects.

October 20, 201114 yr http://www.formspring.me/JESawyer/q/251012524428761868 Zane Lyon is still working as project director on one of Obsidian's unannounced projects. So, Virginia is still on? Or do I confuse him? I don't think they would have cancelled Virginia since it's supposedly an original IP for digital release. Zane is either leading Virginia or New York (the animation project). We know that Josh is project director on one project (some source at RPGCodex claims it's North Carolina). Adam Brennecke was the project director on DS3 DLC and is now working as senior programmer on an unnannounced project. Hate the living, love the dead.
October 20, 201114 yr I would still like to know more about project New Jersey some day “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
October 20, 201114 yr I would still like to know more about project New Jersey some day It's a story about a once beautiful place that turned into a cesspool of crime, radon, trash, and over population. Wolf's Goodspring Hole MOD On the House starter packs MOD NVInteriors
October 20, 201114 yr Project New Jersey = 7 Dwarves game that got canceled eons ago. Volourn had a nervous breakdown after that. How many project does Obsidian currently have in work? Rain makes everything better.
October 20, 201114 yr Looks like its going to be (unsurprisingly) more of an action-rpg too. That said, considering the subject matter (animation franchise) thats probably not a bad decision. Are we sure that the 2d game and the 'animation franchise' game are one in the same?
October 21, 201114 yr I always thought that Josh's project is the small XBLA game, the 2D one. The animation project (the big one) isn't supposed to be like that. Rain makes everything better.
October 21, 201114 yr From what I gathered Virginia = XBLA Action RPG / Project Lead Zane Lyon ? = Original IP / Project Lead Josh Sawyer New York = Animation Project 2D/Project Lead Unknown Edited October 21, 201114 yr by C2B
October 21, 201114 yr The XBLA game is original IP, that we know has the mighty Ferg slipped through in an interview. Rain makes everything better.
October 22, 201114 yr What kind of game publisher does have access to "leading animation franchise" IPs? Disney? Warner? Anyone else? Tron RPG? THQ has the license for some Disney/Pixar work (though Disney Interactive Studios has the rest) as well as Nickelodeon works. Never negotiate. You will only encourage more acts of terror.
