A setting for a game which has not been over used.

Maybe... you know the OTHER world war... The one that America doesn't keep over-using... the one where they did fuck-all? The GREAT War, the Original.

Or Switzerland... nobody likes them Neutral europeans..

I'd like to see a Jade Empire-type game, but instead of kung fu monk, you play as Sir Roderick Ponce Von Fontlebottom the Magnificent Bastard.

Also English Civil War/Commonwealth would br good.

I would like to see a setting which takes place inside someones mind, not like 'Freeman's Mind' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7J80KD4BG7M] inside the mind, I mean like playing through someones sub conscious or their dreams.

 

[IamQ]

Sweden. That is all.

 

[John the Gamer]

You(Player Character) are a mutated human who is now either fish or bird like, and has to build a society in that setting. (nest city in trees or underwater-atlantis-society-thing) that's the best I could come up with... maybe you need to kill/infect normal humans to convert them to your cause...

EDIT:
Maybe the winter war in finland ("36/"39, I think)
Or play a german/japanese/italian soldier during wwII.
A WWI Game
etc

Well Assassin's creed 2 handed it up to me on a silver platter; The renaissance is a brilliant setting. Pity all that animus nonsense gets in the way. I'd like an option to replay the game but get rid of all that contrived balls.

Playing the game in Italian with English subtitles also adds to the experience.

OT: I really want a 3rd person action game in which you play as a pirate, doing piratey things. That's all I can think of right now.

Something prehistoric/earliest settlements. It'd be hard to have storyline other than 'surviving' though...but the nature settings would be awesome

Maybe... you know the OTHER world war... The one that America doesn't keep over-using... the one where they did fuck-all? The GREAT War, the Original.

Shadow Hearts Covenant was set during that period, more or less.

I'd like to see more stuff set in 1930s Shanghai.

 

[Trifixion]

Utah. Soooo many possibilities...

I'm kind of thinking a Starcraft-type game where it's suddenly discovered that Utah is indeed the central nexus of deific power on the planet, and you control one of several various cults who are attempting to fight for control of it...

 

[SecretAlienMan]

Space marines fighting evil alien mutants. Oh wait...

 

[Hawk of Battle]

The Winter War. Where you play as Simo Hayha. The game would be called "White Death".

And it would be awesome.

 

[Nagisa94]

Are there many steampunk RPG's?

 

[Tethalaki]

The Winter War. Where you play as Simo Hayha. The game would be called "White Death".

And it would be awesome.

Spoiler: White Death

A few unmentioned underused settings:

• * Basically the entirety of World War 1 - especially the [relatively short lived] eastern front.
  * Africa during World War 2
  * Thirty Years' War (1618-1648)

There are plenty more out there if you think about them.

 

[minimacker]

Swedish ghetto?
The goal is to stay as politically correct and neutral as possible.

 

[mrwoo6]

Total war; Northern ireland

anyone? no?

 

[Danik93]

Sweden. That is all.

Yea one of the Sweden - Russian wars would be awesome!

 

[Legend of J]

Imagination Land

But in all seriousness im going to say scotland or north east england.

YES! I'd buy ten copies of such a game.

Uhm, War of Jenkin's Ear? 30 Year's War? Hell, any bit of European history aside from the 20th century would work.

 

[Adamc-mh]

Motherwell in Scotland.Ha! doubt anybody even knows that place.
