What franchise would you like to see as MMO?

Tr1cK · 01-08-08, 11:01 AM

Think of any old school RPGs that you played and give us reasons why you would like it as an MMO.

I would love to have RIFTS.

I have loved this game since I first read through the books. Post-Apocalypse and cross-genre, it is the wildest RPG I ever played. The classes are abundant and the expansions could be limitless.

none, I would like to see some creativity for a change.

It's all been done....or 'Simpsons did it!'

what about a simpsons MMO?

Dragonlance

RPGs? none specifically, the RPGs are about story mostly, and 9 times out of 10 are standard fantasy which already exist in MMOs.....for the most part.

The thing is, I am growing tired of fantasy MMOs and the sci-fi ones are just plain sucky.

Dragon Ball. That way all the "XxSSJGOKUxX" tards will flock to it and stay there - and therefore stay out of other online games.

Oh and Bleach too, for the same reason.

I also would say none.

MMO are usually very boring.

I see what you mean since it seems most MMOs are fantasy based, perhaps a Warhammer 40K MMO would be cool. I would also like to see a Ravenloft MMO. I loved the Forgotten Realms pc games like Icewind Dale and Baldur's Gate I and II, but I'd rather see something different now.

Oh almost forgot, I'd like to see a horror based MMO Lovecraft perhaps. Getting pwn3d by Cthulhu would be fun.

This is off-topic, but has anyone played Tabula Rasa?

Tr1cK · 01-09-08, 10:03 AM

I tried Tabula Rasa. It is very very bad IMO.

I think they put Garriots name on it to try to help sell it.

engine is terrible, no AA and lighting effects at same time, runs slow
UI leaves a lot to be desired, lacking customization
no end game goals

I could go on, but it's not worth it.

ah, i'll save my time dl'ing the trial then.
