Just use RPG Maker :P

Nooo!!!

Please don't use RPG Maker! Unless RPG Maker XP has support for action/adventure RPGs like LttP... I know that RPG Maker 2k only did turn-based combat.

A game that plays like LttP already has a gameplay/fun advantage over traditional RPGs. It may take more effort, but this is a great style of game. I'm always trying to plug C++ and SDL though (try them!). They can make the difference between programming a game and 'making' a game with RPG Maker's lame restrictions.

An AD&D RPG game would be awesome, something like Baldur's gate, Planescape: Torment ect.

There are loads of Zelda-like RPG's.
MMPORPG's come with high server costs, unless someone is willing to pay the bill it'll be a no-go (This is why there are very little free MMPORPG's)

Well I was planning on making a remake or something along the lines of the game Albion. So far only one other forum member is interested but at the moment we have a skills shortage

[chainsoar]

An idea that I've had floating around in my head for a while that nobody seems to want to bring to life is that of an RPG with a more modern feel. Why do RPGs have to be swords and magic and dragons? Why not a game set in the 19th century - a western? Or even a 20th century RPG? Would it be against some sort of RPG law to include guns instead of swords and magic? I think a western themed RPG with horses, guns, cowboys and bandits would be a fantastic idea. The upcoming Frontier 1859 looks like it might fulfill these needs, but probably won't be the sort of thing I'm thinking of, in the end.

One of my favourite RPG's named Arcanum has guns and such.. you can either choose to side with magik or technology.. very interesting

Albion has a pistol in it if that qualifies :P

This is cool to read others ideas about an Online RPG.

The game im working on is classless. I hate player class. Isn't there enough catagory in life without filling my games with an absurd amount of special classes? So... i removed class. Race is the only thing remaining, and based on EXP you can train in anything you like. This gives the game DYNAMICS! You never know what the person your talking to truely IS. Skills are avaliable to EVERYONE. You can pick and choose what fits your character best.... no restrictions because your a bard.... or a mage.

If anyone is interested in this type of game, let me know. I own a small but adaquate server that could serve a small online game, which is what im hosting the game on right now.

For those who might be interested..... http://mud.richardcompton.net

on the site, there is a players guide and forum. The players guide is about 40% complete. The sections dealing with Religion and Mythology are going to be expanded upon.

I really like the idea of taking HP from magic users in place of MANA. Thanks for the idea....

Thats all...

[punch999]

I don't know the Idea of the MUD always intrigued me. But In the end the complexity was a let down and the learning curve could bloody kill a man.That is why I prefer MUSH's (multi user shared halucinations) As they focus on no battleing but instead on social function and the ability to create a world without worrying of battles and the sort.

They really should make a PC RPG out of cyberpunk!
