An Idea

An idea has been circulating in my head for a while now. I wanted to make an RPG, with maps, and camera views like "Keys of Destiny", but hardly alike, not including the Final Fantasy style of battle system. A battle system with a chop 'em style like... well, Warcraft III, where you see the enemy and u **** him up good. This is done with spells, and attacks. Although, in this, you can equip weapons and armour, like FF. In end... The game is centered around one character, named Dante'. A peon outcast, who, recently under the rank of slave, has ceased to exist under the hardship's that he has taken. Thus, he decides to escape his cruel master, and begin a new life as an explorer. He must overcome many tasks, shit, adn the such. The world style would resemble the camera views of the first Warcraft III alpha. I'll give you an example of a town, in this screenshot. http://www.war3.com/war3/screenshots/oldingame/5.shtml

and also this... http://www.war3.com/war3/screenshots/oldingame/14.shtml

This shows the game interface.. the bottom thing that has the map, and battle options which would be preffered.

---------------------------------------------

If anyone would like to help on this project, then I'd gladly appreciate it. This seems like it would be really fun.. if it ever releases. And that's depending on the amount of people I can get on this. ---> I can do alot of the stuff, but I need a few people on the team.

I would need someone on maps, someone to create new terrain skins, and.... an extra coder, someone to help me with the cinematics and the developement of the new game interface.

Ingame Cinematic Developer, Terrain Skinner (Preferably someone who has some experience with modelling, doesn't matter how little or how much), Trigger Programmer. That's about it for now.


This seems like it might be pretty fun to develop. I was thinking of it for a while, and hoped for it to become real. Hopefully a few people would like to join. The story is not very developed. I have more of it but the post is getting long.
:D


Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention he has a friend hog, who's his loyal pet, and companion. I wanted to model him, like GFrazier's avatar on the Blizzard Forums. A peon, riding a pig, with some sort of staff.
