If this is popular enough, I'll make it into a recurring general thread on r9k where anyone can contribute into the project.

Also, I trust you guys not to get rid of plot and ideas others have contributed.

The main goal of this is simply community. I feel like we are one of the most chill and friendly boards and we could do this together if we tried, we'd all enjoy it.

What are the basics of the universe? Setting etc.

I don't know, we could do anything anon, do you have any ideas?

I always wanted to make a game somewhat similar to the Heroes series, but based on more modern stuff, with rifles, tanks and artillery in general. Basically, it has the fighting system of Heroes games, but with range taken into account. Probably set in the 1920-30, or up to WWII if needed.

It needs waifu characters.

BIG DUMB MONSTERS FIGHTING IN THE CITY ITS NEVER EVER BEEN DONE EVER

A unique setting is important so we're not just regurgitating old tired ideas. Fantasy western? Fantasy renaissance? Magic-heavy religion-heavy cyberpunk?

Heroes games? enlighten me anon
>>35490614
Of course
>>35490628
but there is no lore there.

How about sci fi but they've forgotten everything and it's now a bit like RUST. Mix in some 40k.

Never heard of Heroes? It's a very long-running series of strategy game, based on some sort of medieval fantasy setting. It's gameplay is based on a hexagonal board where you move troops around, created from resources captured on the map and improved in your base in a sort of turn-based system.
Very popular game 10-15 years ago among the nerdiest. My father introduced it to me, as he was a big D&D fan.
I'd like to make one but in a more modern setting, with more modern equipment to replace the fantasy setting, but some steampunk stuff could do as well.
But I have no skill when it comes to coding or anything like that. I know a lot about tanks and weapons, however.

They make bad games now for ADHD kids of millennium

No generalization I'm not hardcore neet

Why not a paleolithic shamanic world with creepy monsters (SCP tier)?
It could be fun.

>>35490711
>Get HoMm 3 as kid
>That fucking elf level where you gotta capture all the bases
>If you take a little bit too long the general comes with an army of dragons

That level was such fucking bullshit that didn't scale with the rest of the game.

i like the sound of this one

>>35490754
OP here I like the sound of this.

>>35490754
I like the sound of this. Sounds a little Hyborian.

I assume we're going for a cRPG or similar genre wise? Lots of room for items, companions, and side stories.

Just imagine, a village struggled to survive through the winter and barely survived against the cold and illnesses. However a terrible madness hit the chief and he killed the shaman and exiled his apprentice (you). You have to survive wild beasts encounter, flee monsters as you are not yet able to fight them and learn about this madness, is it a demonic curse or a illness?

Where do we start?
