Inspired by this Cracked article. What are some of your best ideas for revolutionary video game concepts? Be thorough about it. |

That article has some interesting ideas.. but I can't really think of anything which doesn't feel like something already out there.
I wouldn't mind playing a RPG backwards, by playing as the major antagonist character rather than a party of heroes.. Or that concept in a multitude of games to be honest. The world could always use more heroes! |

I want to be the road in a driving game.
Jokes aside, I want to see popular turn-based RPGs remade in action platformer format. |

Posted by GreyMariaCould you elaborate on that? Because action platformers are nothing new, and it's a bit vague as to where and how the RPGs get involved. |

Posted by KawaAll that springs to my mind is Final Fantasy styled.. And a Dragoon jumping higher than a Knight for some reason.Posted by GreyMariaCould you elaborate on that?

I honestly would love to see the Final Fantasy games remade as 2D and/or 3D action platformers. Crystal Chronicles was fun. But I want to see a real challenging game made out of that kind of system. More in-depth. More complex. More... more... more Final Fantasy 7-like. |

I for one had this idea of a reversed Pokémon game back during OpenPoké's development. Instead of a beginning trainer, you play as a gym leader. You start out with an empty, completely bare gym, which you can buy thematic elements for. You can go out and basically play a regular game of Pokémon, but with the added twist that trainers you encounter may join your gym, sort of like the posse system in GBA River City Ransom. If you stay in the gym and wait for challengers, the larger your posse and the more intricate your gym design, the easier the challengers get to defeat -- the design makes it harder for the challenger to avoid your posse, and they only have so many healing items.... until word gets out and the challengers prepare better. |

Posted by GreyMariaWhat do you expect from Baby's First Platformer being made into Baby's First RPG? All of the Mario RPGs are really easy.Posted by TreliorPosted by GreyMariaSuper Paper Mario says "Hi." |

I anticipated such a response and have prepared a counterpoint.
Super Mario Brothers 2 (Japan). Super Mario RPG. I do agree that the newer Mario games are... too easy, but... |

♥1279 ✿4724 ★61 One thing I'd like to see is Zelda 2, but done in a modern style with the flaws of the original removed... I feel like that game had some good ideas that get overlooked because of everything else.
A "level design game" might be interesting- you create a level and then some AI plays it- the idea is to figure out how to stop the AI, which gets progressively more difficult. The problem is it would all come down to being able to write the AI... (it could also be an asymmetric multiplayer game, though) |

Posted by GreyMariaSMB2 is only hard because they incorporated puzzles into the gameplay with the wonky physics engine. I don't have much reference with SMRPG, though. I have it for Virtual Console, but fuck I never get around to playing it. |

Posted by NicoleNot what this thread's about. But... I have such an AI right here, actually. It was meant as a player-hunter in a platform game. It's a very simple AI, ofcourse, but the basic premise is a thing. |

Posted by NicoleI don't see how hard it would be to prevent the AI from being able to finish. An insurmountable wall, "Spiked-Wall Man," or a wide gap would be the end-all designs... Now designing levels around getting a stupid, and progressively dumber, AI through would be a far more interesting concept. |

Here's the original text on the gym leader game, unedited from way back then.

Some sort of Pokémon MMORPG.
It won't happen though, or if it did it would be lame and restricted. Nintendo is very paranoid about it's online interaction. I downright say that Nintendo really sucks at anything online, they improved (only needing one friendcode for 3DS is a good start I guess) but still have a far way to go. It's hard to make a safe chat system, as people figure out way around it anyway... It's possible we see a proper "collect creatures and fight/trade other players" MMORPG though that isn't from Nintendo, but I hadn't heard of one yet. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org, YouTube

How would a Pokémon MMORPG be revolutionary? |

I dunno- I really would prefer a game that encourages you to make a quote-on-quote "good" level... maybe it would basically require to have actual people playing it, and rating the levels, but then you have to worry about trolls and other nonsense so huh... |
