Camael Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 A setting I think would have a lot of potential would be one set around Heaven/Hell, Angels vs. demons. The best part would be that the last time I checked, no-one owned the license to Heaven or Hell for that matter - so no fear of licensing fiasco's squashing the project halfway through development Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnum Opus Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I wouldn't mind something with a more Arabian Nights feel to it myself. No Elves or dwarves, but maybe some ghuls or nasnas for that more supernatural element, some intrigue... something along those lines would be good, IMO. Last good game I played in that kind of long-ago desert setting was Quest for Glory: Trial by Fire. *reminisces* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hell Kitty Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I'd like to see some non-traditional traditional fantasy. Cut out fantasy races like elves and dwarfs and such. An historical RPG set in a fantasy world, I guess. Cyberpunk would be nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Know what I've never seen for a game? Or, a good one, rather? A western RPG! Get the guns, do the sherriff thing, be a raider, bandit, outlaw, go to the "billyards" houses... ride your horse out of the town like a bat out of hell with the gold from the bank and start up your own hideout... B) Oh yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawl Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 yeah! That would be also a good set. Western! hehe... And yes maybe I would like to have a game to near future not some laser things and else but something nice. You got the feeling a bit of cyberpunk style and Blade runner. Something like that. I want repeat myself so I stop here. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megatron Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I'd like to see some non-traditional traditional fantasy. Cut out fantasy races like elves and dwarfs and such. An historical RPG set in a fantasy world, I guess. yeah, because lionheart was really good. I think anything besides fantasy (star wars is fantasy) would be good. My top 3 settings would be: 1) Wild West. Not just cowboys and stuff in the late 19th century or whatever, anything to do with a lone man in a slightly lawless enviroment. Thing like Easy Rider or The Road Warrior could be classed as westerns. 2) Modern-day. So long as there isn't some big cheesy conspiracy it could be pretty good. 3) Hell. Could be a bit angsty and white-wolfesque (bad), or it could be something like grim fandango or planescape torment. >* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightblade Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 yeah, because lionheart was really good. Heh.. I haven't even seen screenshots from that game. Decided not to touch it the moment I heard the name/title. "Lionheart" .. reminds of an old Van Damme movie. *shiver* [N] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyDyingBride Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I'd prefer it if the future project was not made for the consoles and then ported to the PC... but it's not as if we have any choice. I agree with you on that one !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Lynch Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I'd be happy if the setting for a cRPG wasn't a rehash of the same-old. Something original, without all the inevitable comparisons between the "expected" universe and the one portrayed in the game, would go a long way to making a game a mainstay in my leisure time. Having said that, I don't care for the Star Wars universe but I thought KotOR was a great game (PC version, of course). So perhaps the setting isn't really as important as interesting characters with an enjoyable and involving story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iolo Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Do a modern day game using the D20 Modern rules. It would probably need to be published by Atari though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
