Yes it was an long title but live with it! Razz

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well Ive got a few Ideas which I want to introduce into my game
Cronius: Artifact Merceneries....

First of all Im introducing a Market Place into all my major cities. Now this may seem nothing out of the ordinary but what Im doing is trying to allow the player to pause his quest career to wear the shoes of a traveling trader. Yes thats right the market places actually sell comodities that cant be used by the player. To be able to start buying/selling from the market trader you must register in one of the major cities and buy a mule.

YES A MULE! Huh?

Now thats one little Idea I got going its simplistic but it can add alot of detail to the game. Literally doubling gameplay time.

Okay onto my second Idea

Ok everyone likes pets and creatures that do your bidding. Well Ive got two things Im doing here.
1) Im introducing a Summon system which using script will summon creatures to aid you in your quest.
2) Before buying real pets you must sit an exam and get A licence. Just another way to bring life into my game Happy

.

Also A few other ideas I have are

Trades- Working with things like metal,wood etc.
Mini-quests- Little jobs availble which teleport you to a new map to do things like- Slay a dragon, Save burning village etc.
Lots of Mini-Games!

Ok they were som of my Ideas (IM NOT TELLING YOU THEM ALL!!!)

ADVICE NEEDED! Oookay...

Release a demo and let me see, sounds cool.

All the advice I got, haha.

Hold up, let the person be able to steal stuff, and sell it in another town.
That could get sooo complex though. Cuz you'd need scripts on his 'wanted level' n ud need cops to make it 'real'

Lol, I wanna see your game in action. Post when its playable, please.

Sounds like a neat concept. I say go for it!

Looking forward to playing your game, if you ever decide to go through with it ^_^

I think the pets should have at least some AI. Actually following the player on the map rather than languishing in the player's inventory. Pets could even attack each other if they don't get on well. But enough about that. Good concepts!

How about you add a cooking system? Onion+Garlic+Peppers=Feindish Fire-breath from Hell (not really). Also, Livestock should be ride-able and can't be brought into certain areas, like, say, the king's throne room (Manure on my carpet?? Off with your head!!). If I knew more about your game, I could give more suggestions, but I don't.

sounds a bit like an elder scrolls game. are your players trades going to be picked at the begginning of the game or would your character just learn that trade later? different races with different pluses and minuses to trades would be cool.

Don't forget the evil taxman! Also, add a bank and add robers that try to steal your booty! Just be sure not to make being robbed an event that encourages players to simply start over from the last save. Nobody likes an unforgiving game!
