Why not make it a cinematic RPG run through multiboards? A Choose your own cinematic Adventure!!!

Why not!?

Do whichever you feel you will finish. There are too many project that start and never finish.

I disagree entirely.

If you have a new idea, and it's workable, try it.
But the only way you can make a good map that will be popular, is to make something you enjoy doing and have fun with.


Okay, so that doesn't garauntee that it will be popular or good at all. But it's all you can do. There's no weathervane to predict popularity. If you're working on something that you like, and you keep an eye for balance and gameplay, then you're doing all anyone can do.

OK OK, so Panto's right.
That still dosent mean that u should make a game that people have played before.
U should make someting that u enjoy yourself, but make it difrent.. dont just copy a map with a few uniqe touches......
