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.

A VR game which is basically a room with a plethora of board games. So you can play with people from all over the world. Come on Hasbro make it happen

Dynasty Warriors with Path of Exile's crunchiness

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

spider solitaire first person rpg with klondike elements, customization cards, and a romance spider option

American McGee's Alice 3

A civil war simulator, where you make your policies to appeal to as much of the population as you can so they would support you and fight for your side, and if you fail to secure significant militant support you get couped or defeated.

A good sandbox MMO that people actually play, and doesn't have a high barrier of entry.

StarSector but it's an MMORPG

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

In The Valley of Gods... from the developers of Firewatch, too bad they've been acquired by Valve and they abandoned the project

A game where the main missions feel like the early Silent Hill games but there are parts between where you explore a densely populated urban area like Cyberpunk 2077

Aight I got one I think is oddly specific, and another that's just odd.

I'd like Starport: GE but as a fantasy RPG theme, instead of ships and colonies it's classes and villages, work the reputation system into a good/evil alignment and change some gameplay.
Not sure about this one but I would like a hub system, only thing that comes to mind for me is realm of the mad god, allowing you to go from one server to another with limited items.

On that note I should probably try to play starport again, has been a number of years.

Other than that, maybe a 1v1 auto battler? A mix of part of a dream into hazy dozing in and out put an idea for an auto battler where you have four incubators and six chicken eggs and each incubator changes what type of chick hatches, where they then fall into the arena to start combat. The choice of incubators and which ones your remaining two reinforcement eggs go in to I think would make an interesting head to head game.

I'd like to play a video game that would level up my real life stats.

A game with the time travel self interaction and self saving mechanics of Super Time Force Ultra. Doesn't have to be a side scroller. Bonus points for getting multiplayer to work reasonably. I've been theorycrafting ways to do multiplayer like this for years (and ultimately most of it feels disjointed in theory so IDK). I've only seen one super low budget game using this mechanic (as a main game mechanic, not a side puzzle like the Ratchet and Clank time puzzles) and the reviews weren't great.

I've been considering mixing it with 5D Chess with Time Travel mechanics and Advance Wars gameplay as a proof of concept and see how far that gets me... But I don't have time or energy to work on it after work...

I would love something like Hellgate London (I think that was its name?), doesn't have to have the same premise, but needs to be a lot less buggy, no p2w, and more production value

Bring Chromehounds back to console. AC6 was close, but not quite there. Dial the sweatiness back to 5 or 6 instead of 11 and gimme the factional MP w/ dynamic comms. I know MAV or whatever exists for PC but I want my comfy console experience dammit

3D wizard fighting game

Kingdom hearts style combat with co-op campaign

No man's sky but focused as a shooter mmo. Imagine clans of 100+ people fighting on planet and in space to control galaxies
