Title: what addition/subtraction to a video game series would you make?
Post by: litt on September 27, 2014, 12:40:05 PM
time for a creative thread

Always thought it would be neat to have a prequel to Tales of Symphonia where you could play as Mithos and co. The obvious argument against a prequel is that the ending is known, but I still think that a game can be worthwhile with great additional characters, a new world, better gameplay, etc. This worked with Fire Emblem 7, in part since 6 had such a loose story. Also, a JRPG with a tragic ending would be pretty cool; knowing the fate of the characters could add a feeling of carthasis.

I haven't read the Witcher books but I think it'd be cool if they made some games about them, surely there's some cool things to be done.

I don't like Tales of Vesperia so let's remove that. Similarly Persona 4 could be done without.

Additionally the games I'd like the most (kind of cheating) would be using Sport Interactive's Football Manager engine, or a similar kind of system, to create an ice hockey or basketball simulation game. That would be great.

remove every resident evil and silent hill after 3

remove every metal gear solid after 2

remove every sonic after 2

just kill every single nintendo franchise in general after the first or second game

remove thief 4

edit: oh and especially remove both of the dark souls games

the only thing I would add is the rest of shenmue since it's basically an incomplete game

fuck sequels

I'd add Banjo Threeie and remove Banjo Nuts and Bolts.

Maybe I'm being a big dummy but the battle controls in Rome II aren't only a step down from Shogun II but the first Rome as well.

So I would probably get rid of Rome II or at least make it as good as the last game  :sweatdrop:

Rome II is really bad, I don't even know where to begin.  To save myself from ranting like an autist i'll just say the battle maps are incredibly boring, and the management is like child's play.

Final fantasy 7 without the fan base it got. Many haters because of that

An Elder Scrolls game that doesn't need modders to fix it.

Ok, time to do this for real:

Persona 4: Really wish the Kanji arc was him coming to terms with his sexuality - be him gay or bisexual - instead of using homophobic shit as a means of mocking his interests like sewing and shit. And, at that, getting rid of all the homophobic and transphobic jokes in the game would be cool - they're randomly placed and not needed to anything pivotal and just aren't funny. P4 is one of my favorite games and it's just sort of disheartening to have such terrible shit in it.

Ni No Kuni: When Oliver was going home, he should have just went home. The whole arc with the White Witch is thrown in rather quickly and the arc isn't really built up to. The White Witch should have just been a sequel instead so they had all the time and gameplay to really experience her fucking everything up.

Neptunia: Less grind plz
