FranklinX 37 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 I've been thinking of a new party idea. This idea makes the player choose one of two parties for the entire game. This concept will also have two different storylines, one for each party. What do you guys think about this idea? Should this be in one game? Should this be done by having two different versions, one for each party? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Sounds interesting. You don't necessarily have to have 2 different storylines, just having different classes in the parties would make it interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkbennett 16 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 I'm more for Franklin's idea. However, I and a friend have explored a smiler concept. We took it a little further, we did two games that took place in the same world and played as separate parties in separate nations. It was interesting to see how we both developed our nations.

Enigma 10 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 It will be good as long as both sides are basically neutral not some Good and Evil nonsense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That sounds pretty cool. Do you still have the games? I would love to see that concept! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Thats sorta what I'm doing in Code Geass PM, you join either the 'terrorists' and attempt to free japan or enlist in the military and crush the terrorists and japanese rebels. Depending on what you choose, the game will be very different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, he canceled his version of the game, so I did the same and deleted it not long after that. =( They were called Hive and Hive: Surrogate. R.I.P Thats sorta what I'm doing in Code Geass PM, you join either the 'terrorists' and attempt to free japan or enlist in the military and crush the terrorists and japanese rebels. Depending on what you choose, the game will be very different. Eh, I don't like the "game will be very different." part. That reminds me of Playing Sonic Adventure and who you play changes the storyline slightly depending on who you play. It was annoying when I played Tails. Or the sequel with the Light and Hero side.

Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Perhaps I should rephrase it, depending on what you choose, the game will be played from two prospectives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nanou-gr 5 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 nice idea! it'll be like two games in one though, right? or will htere be times where you can swift from the one party to the other one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broken Messiah 20 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah, sorta like two games and there will be a party switch if I decide not to have a sequel(very likely.) I will say that the bad thing IS that it'll be like making two games at once, and even that many more times harder if it was to also allow for gender, that would be like four games.
