Have you ever played a game and wondered what if you could do something that it doesn’t really allow you to do, for example being able to move around blocks in Minecraft fluidly instead of in sectors, edit the world in Hogwarts legacy with spells, be able to fly in a world like Elden Ring or Elder Scrolls with epic sky battles, have a sims game that simulates more than just sims needs, but whole economies, or a dystopian horror game set in a Minecraft style world. So I was wondering if anyone else had similar ideas for games or fantasies for possible games?
What’s your ideas for games that doesn’t really exist, or might not even really be possible to make?
I want Spore, but modern and better.
It’s called Stellaris, but it’s only the last stage of Spore.
Something with environmentalist and sustainability goals and principles rather than forms of destruction. I don’t want to kill things or chop down trees or blow stuff up. The world is difficult and I am tired.
Star Citizen, lmao
Suikoden 2 gacha with branching storylines for each single character
I want Star Citizen… The Star Citizen that was promised in the Kickstarter… Still waiting.
I had an idea of a game where you played as a photojournalist documenting the brutality of a near-future totalitarian regime. There would be elements of stealth because you’d have to evade the police to take your photos and you have pretty much no combat ability. You’d use your earnings from selling the photos to gradually upgrade your equipment, maybe starting off with a shitty cell phone camera and working your way up to professional quality full frame SLRs. I’d want it to simulate the workings of a real camera… f-stop, shutter speed, ISO, etc., so you’re challenged with getting good, usable photos in difficult conditions.
Beyond Good and Evil is this, but it’s almost 15 years old so not quite at that level of complexity.
A game where you’re in the Star Wars Universe and it’s open world and you can walk around and interact with people and if the people on that planet aren’t doing it then you can get in your Millennium Falcon or any other SW starship and cruise on over to the next planet.
Basically, No Man’s Sky on steroids with a Star Wars skin.
Smaller scale, but you might want to check out Star Wars: Legends of the Republic for Neverwinter Nights.
I think I want a game featuring Aztecs, Mayans, Incas and / or Olmecs (hell, any “New World” civilization) in a city building, RPG or RTS setting. Not enough focus is paid to what happened in South America or American southwest
FYI, they show up a bit in the Age of Empires series.
