Revive Pushing Daisies. That show ended too soon.

I would really love for the Cradle Series by Wight to be made into a video game. It's like the books were written to be a video game.

In the book, the magic system has definable levels, only certain ways to make mix them, augmentation choices. The whole time I read the books, all I could think was how cool would this be if you made an open world system where you could combine madra systems and various paths to make a million different ways you could play a game.

Someone needs to make it... And if I had the money I would commission it right away.

I'd love to see an R-rated survival horror Metroid movie.

Nintendo will never let it happen but I can dream.

I would hire a ton of artistic, technical, and creative people, both experienced and inexperienced, and I would fund them and encourage them to create novel things.

Baten Kaitos 3.

It's a jrpg series. The twist was that it had pseudo-"deck building" turn-based combat where on your turn your had to complete runs within a time limit to attack.

They released the first game, then did a prequel. The prequel improved on the first game massively, but you could tell they didn't have as much budget.

A third game was planned but never completed. They recently released an HD remaster of the first two games which gives me a little hope, but the series has been overshadowed by the team's current breadwinner, Xenoblade Chronicles (Shulk from SSBU).

Thief or Deus Ex hard to decide

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Legacy of Kain, and the SoulReaver series.

A full remake of the classic games, and then the actual last game that they never finished.

Kerbal space program 2 with multiplayer.

Kitten Space Agency was just announced with a lot of former KSP folks, but still super early and not sure if they'll make it to the finish line

Something new in the Avatar:TLA universe, could be any game/show/movie as long as it has the same writers as the original series. Korra was good but I need more damn it!

Actual metaverse, consistent game physics, flight sim, animal sim, driving sim, etc. go through portals to enter different realms, like urban fantasy, high fantasy, scifi, cultivators, etc. inventory like those in cultivator/litrpg novels, I like the whole isekai genre fusion. Fusionfall prob influenced this take. Play as vr or pc/controller alongisde eachother. Vrchats never gonna be that, everythings avatar based no inventory, resonite meh, metas sucks, I dont see it happening

Two games should be made into movies -

Interstate 76

Full throttle

Probably dating myself with those suggestions. Another wildcard game that should be made into a movie - MechWarrior - whatever version.

[–] MothmanDelorian@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I'd give the guy who made Wazhack a bunch of money. I like his take on nethack

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Pen and Teller's Desert Bus game. I'd make a Faithfull remake of it down to the amount of time it takes to complete.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Good news. You probably don't need a ton of money to make that happen

I have had plenty of game ideas in my head that I know could never become a reality since I ain't got the skills or money to make them happen.

One idea is essentially a game for the Luanti engine where it's pretty much you crash-land on Earth, maybe a thousand or so years into the future as someone meant to see how Earth is and if it's habitable again. It would play like one of those quest based mod packs for m*necraft. In this one, you'd essentially be dealing with resource shortages and fighting mainly just robots and whatever very sparse mutated animal life is left on the planet. Throughout the game you'd find different crest like things that would give you various animal based powers. Goal would be collect them all and beat all the bosses.

Another idea I've had is essentially a clone of the Ankama chess autobattler style game Krosmaga. In both games you'd select a character followed by your deck and fight against either a CPU or another player. Instead of followers of the deities in Krosmaga, you'd be taking the role of different anthro animal tribes. Biggest reason I'd wanna make that is so you avoid having to constantly be connected to the Internet just to play it, like you have to do with Krosmaga. Also to add features that should already be a thing in Krosmaga (being able to choose to battle your friend by connecting to them directly instead of the random player matchmaking they do in Krosmaga).

Animated series for one of my favorite novels: Worm

It should be a long running series, with focus on the characters and the superhero society as a whole.

Arcane level animation would be nice

Manga-accurate Anime of Berserk fully hand drawn and without clang sounds for swords

I'd fund a tv series about Rendevouz with Rama -book series. Yes, the whole series, even the crappy, goofy books not written by Clarke. Though I'd probably try to tone down the incest that goes on in some of those sequels.

Resmaster of Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks. Best Mortal Kombat I ever played.

[–] GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

Series? More macross/robotech that makes sense. Macross Plus is the best for many reasons, but mostly because of the coherent plot. Give me awesome mecha, itano circus missile flights, and a plot that's not fucking stupid. (I can't stand robotech's plot, and macross is barely tolerable.)

Game? Master of Magic 2 that doesn't suck. I've seen 2 or 3 spiritual successors but they've failed in execution. Keep it simple. Update the original and add a touch of something. Don't reinvent it.

Movie? District 9 sequel. I don't know how they'd do it but the movie was so good I want more.

I'm addicted to urban fantasy right now so I definitely wish we could get another swing at The Secret World. I love hidden world things like a second society of cryptids beneath the mundane and I've been inlove with the setting for forever.

I know the devs were talking about a tv series but... nothing.

I've also always wanted to do a band of brothers style series but from a star wars' perspective where half the series is in the eyes of rebels and the other half in the eyes of the empire. But to slowly build up more gray morality - like the rebel soldiers have to struggle with committing acts that cause civilian casualties to push their objective. Or the stormtroopers slowly being broken from the imperial cult but still loyal to the concept of what it means for order.

Or like.. a band of brothers style series of a platoon of imperial guardsman in 40k. Just guys struggling to survive demons, aliens, and killer robots.

I’d do a film version of the Illuminatus! Trilogy across 5 films, and make it feel as epic as the Odyssey or Ben Hur… really old school.

I'd fund A quality Fantasy MMO rpg so it wouldn't ever have micro transactions and would also scrub all guides about it from the internet in an attempt to bring back community based progression instead of 'why no meta bro?'
