Your Idea For a Perfect Game

[funguy2121]

A stealth style game with a female protagonist. It would be set in a dystopian Steam-punk version of Victorian London. Her enemies would be the Fae who are well..faeries but what faeries were really supposed to be like IE. not very nice at all.

It would give you the choice to use magic or technology. They have murdered her parents and turned her brother into a black cat which is the focus of the story. He travels along with you and takes part in some of your skills. The style of game play is similar to Fallout 3 but the game is more cartoon like in style.

You will make decisions that effect the outcome of the story, they are geared towards whether you are taking revenge for your parents or focused on saving your brother. However, they are sometimes morally grey and you don't have to go to one extreme or the other to get the best endings it will pick an ending based on a points system for each answer. No ending is 'the best' or 'the worst'

I think I have waffled enough for now.

One big, fat, huge "like" for this. If you have any more ideas like this, I'd say you have a shot at being a game designer (though I say it from my armchair).

Well, let's see... A first person shooter. A big city, open-world free roaming, you play as an engineer who (with friends along the way) have to survive a dinosaur appocalypse. You will find and create weapons but almost every weapon are to weak to kill the bigger and stronger dinosaurs, maybe at most cripple them so you will have to run/stand still/hide and do whatever you can to get away from the bigger ones like for example a Velociraptor. And you cannot get into a car because if you do that (among more things) it will attract the T-rex... And you do not want that.

The goal is to survive and to get out of the city in any way possible with as many survivors as you can, and the survivors wont just follow you, you will have to do missions for some because they are just fucking stupid. Also since it is an open-world game, you can explore, find, and create stuff aswell. And many things are customazible.

And the prefered engine would be Frostbite 2 because of the major destruction that the dinosaurs can do.

You do know that the velociraptor was one of the smaller dinosaurs, right? Not much bigger than an adult human. And why the arbitrary "T Rex's dig cars" thread? Did you watch Jurassic Park 2 last night? I also like "you will have to do missions for some because they are just fucking stupid." The exposition here should be told in-game by that exact, verbatim text. Maybe then I would finally succumb to my internet friend's wishes and LOL.

Sounds interesting though.

Somebody help me, I'm a post-aholic.

My idea was an open world RPG. Set during the rapture where the armies of Heaven and Hell use Earth as a battlefield, you play as some of the last remaining humans, however because they drank the blood of a dead demon and angel they can transform into an angel or demon. They would all use melee based weapons as mortal weapons can't hurt angels or demons.

Combat would be like Final Fantasy, random battles, ATB gauge etc. only if a character is knocked out in battle, one of the characters not in battle would take their place. Magic would be involved because of the whole blood drinking thing, but powerful moves and magic would require a charge time after use which gets shorter as you level up.

There would be 8 characters & of which are based on the seven deadly sins, the eighth is just an asshole all round and the main character. They would get recruited by Jesus as demon hunters. The demons would be taken from all sorts of mythology and religious lore (Judas, Anubis, Cerberus) and there would be a total of 16 bosses but only 10 battles are necessary to continue the plot. However the more bosses you beat the more powerful the demon and angel forms would get

At that point the characters would get betrayed and killed and sent to hell where Satan decides he could use your help and so you seek revenge on the angels that betrayed you. Eventually you would find and kill God and Satan and become the new ruler of Heaven, Hell and Earth.

In true RPG fashion there would be super powerful awesome weapons and attacks to find and unlock, and also hidden bosses like The four horsemen and other demon hunters.

So yeah haven't really thought about it much.

This sounds absolutely bad ass. But you forgot about Wormwood and the Locusts

"And then the angel handed me a little book, and said that I should eat it, that it would taste sweet in my mouth but that it would, being a fucking book, disagree with my stomach. And then I, being a total dumbass, ate the book, you know, as if it were not a fucking book, and it surely did taste sweet in my mouth - not sure if that's the mescaline talking or the psilocybin - and, woo-hah, big fucking surprise, my stomach did not agree with having chewed up leather and hemp and ink inside of it. So then I got a huge stick up my ass, and well, Rome and particularly Emperor Nero had really been getting on my last nerve lately, and I was still waiting for the next Pixies album to come out and had nothing better to do, stuck on this island and all, so I figured I'd invent yellow journalism, but I'd also throw in a bunch of monsters and cosmic happenings that ignorant people a few millenia in the future will assume is a prophecy of nuclear war. Yeah. And so I did that." (paraphrased, The Book of Revelation, "John," who is not a supermodel or member of U2 and yet is still somehow pretentious enough to only use one name)

Not sure really. Saints Row: The Third seems to come close to my idea of perfect though.

What bothered me the most about Saints Row 2 was the scarce amount of missions(i don't count the activites 'cause they ran out of entertainment value pretty quickly) and the small music library. So from the looks of things i'd say Saints Row: The Third is my perfect sandbox.

I'd say Assassin's Creed came close to being my favourite but then i remembered some of the bullshit sidequests, the street performers, the main character of the series who kinda sucks and all those fucking white lights O.e
