First off I plan to stay away from typical Rpg cliches. Yadda Yadda. So, what I want to do is use retro-style 8-bit sprites in my game. Also it will be a sidescroller but, you will not be limited to just going right constantly. No I want it be open world. Here are some images I have created in MsPaint. Tell me what you think about em.

Also instead of just text in the story, I also plan to use voice acting on every single text in the game! Ha, it's gonna be a bitch though lol but in the end worth it.
