Come and have a look...any opinions would be good

This looks like it could make a pretty decent game You've clearly put a lot of thought into the development and detail of this world, and it has a very cliché fantasy feel, but it seems original at the same time. I especially like the detail you've put into the religions, and the attacking method (here's one from the warrior):

All of the Warriors get more powerful by battling the enemy. Here's how it happens...
If, during a fight, a Warrior gets hit 8 times, and hits the enemy 13 times, then after he's won the fight his defence will go up by 8, and his attack by 13.

The one thing I don't really like, though, is the 'brief outline' section:

The goal of the game is to become a general, free either Jurlak or Sonia from their tomb, and win the war against the opposing force.

You rise through ranks, depending on how good you are. Once you get to General, you lead whole armies, and answer only to your chosen Spirit.



The main cities would be a bit like Ankh-Morpork (from Terry Pratchett's 'Discworld' series). But, it wouldn't just be set there. There would be other towns and villages around the world. Armies would have to fight over different terrains (mountains, plains, forests etc). The main city would have it's bright colourful areas, but also it's shadey underground (just like Ankh-Morpork again).

Now, if this ever actually became a PS2 game (which I'm sorry to say probably never will), then that storyline might not cut it... I know it's just a brief outline, so the full storyline is probably very long and detailed, but I don't really like the idea of this. I just hope you got the idea to not just base the entire game around fighting wars and being jsut one big hack 'n' slash like the Lord of the Rings games - they could have been so much more, as could this game

So all in all, I like the idea of this game. It sounds interesting and unique. And who knows? Maybe someone (ie - you) could always make it into an RM2K game if you never get the chance with the PS2...

It wouldn't be a "hack 'n' slash", as you call it. Much more indepth than that.
If it ever did get made into a game (which I highly doubt), then the developers would most likely change the storyline to one of their own.

I'm glad you like the religion part! I spent two days thinking about how to link it all together

I would make make it into a RM2K game if I could, but I'm just not good enough, I'm sorry to say
It's the unliveable dream, unfortunately

Well, what if you gave someone else permission to use the idea? It has the potential to be an excellant game , I'm sure this could be a real treasure if it was made correctly.

[Belmat]

If an experienced game maker wants to give it a shot, then they're more than welcome to! So long as I get credit for the original concept, I'd love to see it made.

Hey, I could give it ago, seeing as though I'm the only one actually replying to this thread

If it's okay with you, I could make a demo of the start of the game, send it to you, and if you like it, I'll carry on with it How does that sound?

Edit: Do you have MSN or AIM? I could talk to you over them, it would be easier than on a forum.

[Belmat]

That sounds good to me! Thanks!
