As a kid who loved Kingdom Hearts and The Matrix, I wanted to make a game where you could choose from the standard Magic, swords, guns, OR you could whip out your keyboard and hack the game.

It's not nearly as exciting in retrospect, as it's basically just Skyrim with console commands, but the thread brought it back to me so I thought I'd share. It felt like a cool idea in 2002, though.

I've also been writing and designing a Pokemon game in my head for the last 25 years, but I'm keeping that one closer to my chest even though there's no universe where that happens.

I wanna build a fort and shoot at zombies on my phone with friends and can't seem to find someone to take my money.

I think a John Wick game with a similar gameplay style as Rise Son of Rome would be killer.

Oh my.

If I collected all the visual information I saw in some dreams I have had about video games...would I be rich now?

I want Space Engineers, but better.

Building vehicles, ships, and bases block by block as your character is mechanic I enjoy that I haven't seen elsewhere. I also like the resource gathering. But I would like better physics, better enemy interactions and AI, and water instead of just ice.

StarSector but it's an MMORPG

Dynasty Warriors with Path of Exile's crunchiness

And it should have the soundtrack like DW6 did because that shit ruled

...and how much would you pay for a pre-order special edition that came with a free in game hat for your character?

A rapid fire, action point based tactical MMORPG.

Like 5 to 10 seconds for a turn, everyone lodges their turns and over the next 10 seconds the characters play out their actions with complex complications for unplanned conflicts. Like a guy running though someone elses thrown grenade or two guys trying to run through the same doorway.

I like location based games, like Niantic has done, but with much less backstory.

A demolition derby game like wreckfest but without the racing. Leveling, gear, competitions are all focused on destroying other cars and being last one standing.

Bonus if some shenanigans are allowed like you get out of your car and fight other drivers.

A sort of real time game that starts in third person, as a single character, and expands over time to a whole village. Set in a post apocalyptic world, where you wake up after the apocalypse and have to survive, eventually meeting other survivors and either fight them off or band together to form societies. Each person modelled like an rpg character, with skills sets and capabilities (electrician, plumber, computer geek, radio amateur, farmer and all the other things that make a self-sufficient village). It would need to model the dynamics of politics and how society was governed and the run-ins with other villages and roving bands of survivors.

A sort of mini civilisation but themed around rebuilding capability rather than discovering it.
