I'm having trouble deciding if this will be an RPG or cinematic...

If its a cinematic then it will (probably) include this:

Massive Amounts of Characters, awesome scripted sequences, and special new spells and stuff.
Awesome Worlds - Like an Elven city among the trees, maybe an ethereal plane, deserts, forests, mountains, jungles, underground, and snowy environments.
About 10 hours of movie time in total. After all the parts are done it will be about 10 hours long - at least!
New Skins, Models, Etc...
Visit many locations - Probably about 40 levels for all the different regions needed for the cinematic.
New Creeps and Monsters (maybe).

If its an RPG then it will (probably) include this:
Massive Amounts of Characters, and new spells.
Same awesome worlds, though toned down a bit to work for playable environment.
New Skins, Models, Etc...
Many locations - Probably the entire continent of ??? (haven't decided on name yet, but you will probably be able to explore all of Dale, Arland, Ta-Kora, Asiragund, The Dragon Isles, and 3 other new places - Kel-Shar (A samurai type place), a Dwarven Area, and the far northern wastelands.
Weapon System: Character actually looks like they're wielding different weapons. (maybe not, might be *very* hard to do)
Random quests and dialogues.
Random Weather
Day and Night Cycle - realistic times, for instance, you will see different characters a different times of days.
New Creeps: Like Goblins, a new Gnoll Unit, and plenty more.
Choose a name, and class for your character and customize your characters abilities as you level up.
Level Cap of somewhere around 15 - 30.

Lemme know what you think.

Go for an RPG, you seem to have the knowledge and time to put into these heroes, go for it and good luck to you.

NOTE: For all RPG's or well anything you expect to be good, you need a plan, a layout or something. You have all these heroes, very good start.

I was kinda thinking RPG would be cool. Thanks.

Anyone else...?

RPG is a good route. Got a timeframe yet?
-Syco

I would say cinematic, DeamonKillar needs some competision!:ggani:

Hmm... I'll still think about it.

Anyways for now I'll just work on characters, places, story, maps, and some spells and skins\models until the xpac comes out.
