Grand Theft Auto+Elder Scrolls/Fallout series.

To have an open world, crime sandbox offer a "quest" system similar to how the Elder Scrolls series does, where you can literally build up your own crime career without all this story context always getting in the way.

You ************, that's exactly what I came into the thread to post.

I want the greater scale and dynastic focus of CK2 with Mount and Blade's gameplay.

I preferably want Mount & Blade to become more like CK2, as opposed to the reverse. I want to be able to kill nobles, have new ones take their place, have intrigue, kill my spouse, etc. I like CK2 in theory, but I never have the patience to learn what Im doing. I mostly like the roleplay aspect of it.

I think that they confirmed that you will be able to kill nobles in Bannerlord, not sure about the ability to murder your spouse though. And yeah, some extra roleplaying aspects would be nice in M&B, which they seem to be focusing on a bit in the next one. Honestly my most expected game at the moment.

CK2 is worth learning to play, it does take a while to get used to it, especially since every expansion makes it a bit more convoluted, but it's honestly on the easier side of Grand Strategy. I'd highly recommend taking 15-30 hours to learn how to play it properly, the potential roleplaying aspect is seriously second to none.

Good cause...fuck that guy. I dont know who that is yet, but fuck him. I try to be nice. I dont take him prisoner, and he still hates me. Jerk.

Bannerlord is "Buy it new" level wanting, and on Steam that means something.

I wish things in CK2 made more sense. I got 100% intrigue on a plot to kill my spouse, and nothing happened for a long ass time, then the plot failed or was discovered or something, and they ran off.

I mostly just play multiplayer with my brother every once in awhile, and while he actually plays, Im off doing stupid stuff, or trying to anyways.

A few come to mind:


Devil May Cry & Castlevania (specifically with Alucard as the main lead)
This kind of exists already. While a lot of Castlevania purists turn their nose up at it, Lords of Shadow takes place in that same dark fantasy style and has fast paced God of War esque combat. Can't help you with Alucard obviously since the main character is Gabriel.

-Halo + Homeworld (Considering how many ship classes exist in Halo fiction, and how there's a strong groundwork for how ship battles function in the setting, plus the glimpses of it in Reach, I think there'd be great potential for a ship-based game)

-Warcraft + Dragon Age (Singleplayer RPG that allows us to explore Azeroth)
Love these ideas.

OT: The Witcher 3 and Lord of the Rings. I can't specify a particular game since none of them have been all that outstanding. I did love the movie tie-in games I had for gamecube though. I just want a rich an immersive RPG that takes place in Middle Earth

Total War (either Warhammer or Medieval) + Dark Souls. I use Dark Souls tentatively though because I wouldn't want the game to be incredibly unforgiving, but I don't want the floaty ridiculousness of Dynasty Warriors. I would really love the combination of grand strategy and then the opportunity to be a field general who can enter combat at will and assist my forces. I haven't seen a game yet that's done mass scale hand-to-hand combat on a battlefield without it being cheesy.

The Lords's randomly chosen personalities were a complete pain in the ass to deal with, agreed. I wonder if they'll have more defined personalities this time around, in Warband they simply randomly chose a template (Honourable/Warmonger/Asshole/Regular Every Day Dude) and stuck with it for the whole game. More complex personalities is definitively an aspect of CK2 they could take notes of.

Ditto. The fact that no release date has been given yet kills me a bit inside every day.

Plot percentage reaching 100% means that a plot CAN fire, not that it will succeed. Murder plots are never sure to succeed, the best thing to do is get your plot % as high as possible so that events fire as often as possible, eventually they'll succeed. Trying to murder a high intrigue character is a pain in the ass, honestly. (As it should be)

Multiplayer goes too slow to properly learn to play the game if you want my opinion, and the constant disconnections are a bother I could live without. Single-player is the way to go to learn the game, then you can play multiplayer (which is always fun).

Deus Ex and the Binding of Issac. Binding of Issac is simply the best rouge like ever. I love openness of Deus Ex gameplay. There are a few ways you an make this game. You can combine the random level generation with Dues Ex. You would be basically playing short randomized missions that play like Deus Ex. (You know first person, door opening simulator.) You could also take the overall gameplay of Binding of Issac and expand it's systems to include augments, stealth, hacking, maybe even social combat.

Erm...Mass Effect and Red Faction: Guerrilla. I want to also combine that with Elite to imply that a free-roaming MMO universe is essential.

Also, to continue the space adventure theme; Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed: Black Flag. I want my damn space pirate adventure! Where we gain a rag-tag band of misanthropic misfits and travel the cosmos picking up new members, raiding stations, gaining alliances, enemies. We could even launch out in spacesuits to clamber on and into unsuspecting ships while crying "Aaarrrrrghhhboooard me Arrrghhties!" Which nobody but our connected crew would hear because we're in space. It would have all the cool things a space adventure should have, plus more!. Bonus points for a grimy steam-punk aesthetique too.

Pacific Rim Tournament Fighter and Mechwarrior. I want to have first-person mech combat against giant Kaiju.

City: Skylines and Bioshock. Who doesn't want to be able to build their own Rapture or Columbia?!

Hatred and Lego might be worth a laugh, although I'm partial to Lego Fallout and Lego Warhammer 40k.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines and Skyrim.

Blooldines was a great RPG with a wonderful moody atmosphere, a good story and dozens of memorable characters. Plus, each Clan had its own unique game play experience. But I always wanted to do more in that world and truly explore and inhabit the environment. A game like that in a vast open Skyrim type engine would be awesome.

As long as there were no Draugr...

Life is Strange meets Dying Light.

Ok, this would involve zombies, but hear me out.

Zombies for some reason descend on Arcadia Bay and it is up to Max Caulfield to save her friends and the town with her parkour skills. Unfortunate she is rubbish at parkour as she has never tried it before and quickly screws up and gets bitten by a zombie.

Fortunately, she still has her time rewind power and while she starts out bad at parkour, every time she screws up and gets chomped by a zombie, she rewinds time and tries again. Every time she does this and she gets things right, then she gets better at parkour. Soon she is free running like a pro, saving her friends and solving their problems at the same time as trying to work out the reason that zombies have attacked her sleepy little town.

In the end, she has to decide whether to...rescue a kitten or doom the whole town to zombie death. The saving the kitten being the option that Dontnod want you to take.

I didn't know I wanted this till you said it but this. I think it could work really well too, base it at some sort of Pokemon Academy kinda thing.

Now imagine, like I did, Izanagi vs Magnezone, Greninja vs Jiraiya and Kazuya vs Gardevoir.

You're welcome. ^_^

OT: Thought of another one involving Persona - Yu-Gi-Oh and Persona. Now, imagine the god fights.

Kingdom Rush + Skyrim. A tower defense game that is 1st person AND real-time. Your map updates only as the info on ennemy movement is known (and by the time the scouts come back they moved already, but you can guess which direction they moved for instance), etc. I think it would make a great game.

The Sims + XCOM + D&D. You are a guild master who hires adventurers to explore dungeons and based on a shit ton of factors (character class, race, chemistry between each other, equipment, spells known, and of course, luck) they come back with loot, which makes you able to buy more equipment and hire higher-level adventurers, etc.

I have a whole notebook filled with notes about those 2 ideas, but I can't program anything so yeah... :(

Skyrim + Saints Row 3.

Fantasy open world exploration that doesn't take itself too seriously? I would absolutely play that.
...why is humor so underused in fantasy games, anyway?

Animal Crossing + Deadly Premonition
Surreal town sim with horror overtones and quirky characters...

Bloodborne + Castlevania: This one is begging to happen, Konami is the only one in the way.

Mario + Shadow of the Colossus: At first I thought this Watchmojo idea was stupid, but then again, Mario Galaxy did have some giant battles and Mario does take a 20-foot Bowser on a regular basis

Grow Up/Home + Chibi-Robo: A toy robot with an actual robot having adventures while doing chores.

Fru + Tearaway Unfolded: A game that uses the Kinect and another that uses that horrible PS4 Controller light and the touchpad could make for something amazing with the paper aesthetics and the platform mechanic could make for somethimg challenging and deep.

Dead Rising + Zombi/Death Road to Canada: You get a random person and must bring other to a safe place under a time limit, with permadeath.

DLC Quest + Badge Arcade/That card game from The Witcher III: A game that completely satirizes companies charging real money for virtual gaming add-ons, the final boss could be the inevitable server shutdown to further get the point across.

Cel Damage + Mario Kart: Wacky cartoony combat race with the colorful maps provided by the latter

Super Mario 3D Land/World + Rayman/Spyro/Sonic/any platformer: The fixed camera 3D-style of the formers could add greatly to all of the latters, especially with games that could use co-op or just multiplayer.

Final Fantasy Tactics + Fire Emblem: Two of the best tactics games together at last.

Life is Strange + Mirror's Edge: I know this is basically Prince of Persia, but I want to see realistic parkour action in modern day.
