Oerwinde Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 With Wasteland, Liesure Suit Larry, and Shadowrun seeing new games thanks to Kickstarter, what other classic franchises would you like to see make a comeback? Out of everything, I'd like to see Quest For Glory. Probably my favorite franchise of all time. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Malcador Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Freespace. Then again, maybe not, the uncertainty at the end of FS2 was rather nice. 1 Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Gorth Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 The Lords of Midnight. ...and Doomdarks Revenge! Barring that, Master of Orion 2. Edit to add: Icemark for the heathens who are ignorant regarding the greatest game ever. 1 “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
Tale Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Longest Journey/Dreamfall I don't generally care about franchises, but that's the one plot cliffhanger I am interested in seeing resolved. 2 "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Serrano Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 I think Space Hulk is the best one I can come up with at the moment.

PoetAndMadman Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Spiritual successor to Dungeon Keeper series. 1

I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
Delfosse Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 BG, IWD, Planescape, Arcanum, Vampire the Bloodlines. MMORPG-wise, I dream about a hardcore mmorpg (your gear drops when you die, etc) using any D&D edition, but that's never gonna happen. Not in my lifetime anyway.
Guest Slinky Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Freespace. Then again, maybe not, the uncertainty at the end of FS2 was rather nice. Almost suggested a prequel, in the time of terran vasudan war, but no beam weapons and no shields make DD a dull boy. I'd like a new Syndicate Wars, as an top down tactical shooter, not as an FPS.
Drowsy Emperor Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Alpha Centauri remake. 2 И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,И његова сва изгибе војска, Седамдесет и седам иљада;Све је свето и честито билоИ миломе Богу приступачно.
meomao Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Baldur's Gate, Arcanuum, Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Temple of Elemental Evil, Ultima series.
Humanoid Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 My list would just a whole bunch of ex-Origin/Bullfrog/Microprose properties - such as Strike Commander F-19/117A Stealth Fighter Privateer Crusader System Shock Syndicate Populous Pirates! Theme Park/Hospital Dungeon Keeper Darklands Transport Tycoon Covert Action Master of Orion Masters of Magic Machiavelli: The Prince Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix Jane's Longbow ...you get the idea. And a few outside that: Flashback Giants: Citizen Kabuto Betrayal at Krondor Arx Fatalis The Last Express Interstate '76 and some of the non-Core Sim-something games. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Nepenthe Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Dunno, a while back my answers would've been Baldur's Gate and Deus Ex, but both of those are getting some attention already. I'd cough up for any Infinity Engine game made by the right people (Obsid, ex-Bioware) and probably also for a Warlords game. The first one was always my favourite strategy game. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Rosbjerg Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 good suggestions all around. I'd especially love to see Freespace and Alpha Centaury return. Fortune favors the bald.
Starwars Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 I'd rather see more new projects (like the Banner Saga) in the future rather than sequels and re-makes, but I wouldn't scoff at a Darklands re-make/sequel. 1 Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0
HoonDing Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Loom remake/sequel Betrayal at Krondor remake/sequel Full Throttle sequel Anachronox sequel DaggerXL Only Betrayal at Krondor at this point is likely to happen after Feist has finished out his latest book. DaggerXL is doable, but the issue is copyright. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
WorstUsernameEver Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Give me 'spiritual successors' or crazy new concepts instead, please. I wouldn't spit on a new Arcanum, though. That was a setting that could have used another go, there's an enormous potential right there.
Oner Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Freespace 3 Anachronox 2 Aquanox 3 Dark Heresy RPG The Space Hulk idea is nice too. Giveaway list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DgyQFpOJvyNASt8A12ipyV_iwpLXg_yltGG5mffvSwo/edit?usp=sharing What is glass but tortured sand?Never forget! '12.01.13.
Majek Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) A real Jagged Alliance game. Archimedean Dynasty 2 ( yeah, retcon all the aquanox crap ) Freespace 3 A Desert/Jungle Strike - like game ( renegade ops had promise, but the failed in the end. Gatling Gears failed even worse with their stupid camera and forced limitations) Darklands 2 Micro Machines but in top down MM/MM2 style. Street Rod 3 Edited April 13, 2012 by Majek 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Malcador Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Heh, it's a bloody shame that with all our powerful PCs, we can't get a simulator like GS2K/F-19/F-117A or Falcon.

Nepenthe Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Dark Heresy RPG I'd definitely chip in for that, as well. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
