Dungeons and Dragons Discworld Jack Vance's universe Middle Earth; but set before the Lord of The Rings, sandboxy, without everyone having to be THE hero in a main storyline and with the option to fully play an evil character. Starwars: but open ended, sandboxy and with ffa pvp ... Any mmorpg with the right elements will do. Right elements being FREE, OPEN, VAST, UNRESTRICTED, RP FRIENDLY and IMMERSIVE.

User Deleted	2/16/09 2:19:33 PM#14 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) A few old school literature classics imho... How about Fritz Leiber's world of Nehwon. Or another not very well known Thieves' World by Robert Lynn Asprin. Both could make for some excellent settings. You can find them both on Wiki...

Wheel of Time Belgariad Dragonlance Those would be nice. I wouldn't mind seeing something akin to Starship Troopers but I think that would lend itself to a more Planetside/FPS type game than an mmorpg. That Guild Wars 2 login screen knocked up my wife. Must be the second coming!

I would love to see a Battlestar Galactica MMO. It could be done if they had a creative director who could direct creativley. Unfortunately, this is not the case with most established IPs that turn into games. They really only seem to work for folks who are not true fans of the IP. SWG was rediculous to me and had nothing to do with Star Wars apart from the enviornment design and music. I might enjoy Star Trek Online because I am not a huge Star Trek fan. Same with Stargate Worlds. It is almost to the point where I almost hope they DON'T make anything I am familiar with, as more than not they destroy the idea of what it was they set out to create. The only fast establishing IP that I think would work in these current times would be a open world sand box , RVR type game called, Heros of Darkfall where the 2 factions the fanbois and the trolls battle in an epic struggle to determine the secrets of Darkfall, and who gets to be right and justified. These people need an outlet. The next civil war will NOT be over politics or world issues...Just sayin

User Deleted	2/16/09 3:12:28 PM#19 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) Really I can't think of any book I've enjoyed that I'd like to see ruined as an MMO. That being said without being based on any particular book I think a cyberpunk mmo based on William Gibson's collected works would be awesome. But only if it embrace the entire scope in a sandbox MMO where players could creat and craft hightech gadgetry, create, work for or run corporations.
Andraxx Hard Core Member Joined: 9/07/08 Posts: 177	2/16/09 3:29:00 PM#20 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen. Huge world, lots of magic, plethora of races, the tarot-like ascendant houses you could align with. Make it sand-boxy with a main story questline that references the events of the 10 books. Steven Brust's "Jhereg" series would be a pretty good setting as well. Intrigue among the 12 Houses, 2 types of magic, powerful patrons.
