I would like a language learning video game which is set up as a MMO, and you “reverse” level. You start with massive equipment because you need it to be able to fight the learning monsters, but as you get more proficient you get hit less(fewer mistakes) and do more damage (faster language entry) so you can start dropping equipment. So the monk running around in a loin cloth is the goal. All sorts of multi-player interactions are possible around setting up conversations, handling larger readings, etc.

I want Spore, but modern and better.

A 4-player couch co-op JRPG where each player gets one of the characters in the party.

A few series exist that let you do this, but none offer agency to the other players outside of battles to go talk to NPCs and get their own quests.

A multiplayer Dragon’s Dogma game. I.E., a coop western-style third-person action RPG with a focus on exploration and interesting combat mechanics.

Outward came close but it’s a bit too hardcore and focuses a bit more on survival mechanics.

*Anime cRPG, like if Obsidian collaborated with Atlus *MMORPG with Souls combat and no microtransactions (subscription model preferred) *Mass Effect, but with a good ending *A Bethesda game without bugs *Dating sim, but all romance options are your friends’ moms

WoW with no aliens or time travel

A game where you're in the Star Wars Universe and it's open world and you can walk around and interact with people and if the people on that planet aren't doing it then you can get in your Millennium Falcon or any other SW starship and cruise on over to the next planet.

Basically, No Man's Sky on steroids with a Star Wars skin.

I want a VR game that is like the games from sword art online

Ever since I was a kid I have wanted a Pokémon game with real-time action combat that approximates the fight scenes in the anime, not only incorporating movement and dodging but also counter-moves like using fire attacks to nullify Razor Leaves.

I want to know what Jet St Radio for the Wii could've been. Apparently one was tossed around, but at the end of the day was rejected. Tbf, this was 2006~ Sega, and it probably would've been trash. But I will still never not be curious about what could've been.

Don't Starve but more Animal Crossing. Lot more casual vibes but the creepy aspects leaning more into survival horror.

• Sealed room murder mystery, with no quirky characters. And with puzzles that require you to wiki stuff.
• RPG that takes place outside of western European / American / Japanese setting. I wanna see games that take place in Korea, India, Africa
• RPG that takes place in a small city where you can interact with most people, a small open world like Kamurocho (maybe larger), but allows interaction with most people, instead of just handful of quest givers.
• Igavania but with modern sci-fi settings. Shadow Complex exists, but that’s more metroidvania (no leveling up or equipment drops from enemies)
• Flight simulator but for road trip. Truck simulator but with real world map data
• Flight simulator but for underwater exploration, with real world data.
• PS3 Africa, but expanded to more regions, more animals.

• Starcraft reboot with Brood War era story and units, and Company of Heroes 1 macro and pacing
• Isometric ARPG with modern graphics, a well-integrated story, no gearcheck bosses, and high SSF droprates
• Online/offline CCG with MTG-level mechanical depth and art style but no F2P business tactics
• Star Wars lightsaber combat with deep fighting mechanics and modern graphics
• Star Wars space combat with coordinated squad-based dogfighting

I think I want a game featuring Aztecs, Mayans, Incas and / or Olmecs (hell, any “New World” civilization) in a city building, RPG or RTS setting. Not enough focus is paid to what happened in South America or American southwest

I want Hero's Duty from Wreck it Ralph.

I've been thinking about an ARPG based around World of Warcraft's mythic dungeons.

Scalable, multi-player, enhanceable instances where completion of more difficult versions of the instance rewards in better gear and crafting options.

The idea is that the content is created for a 5-man party (1 tank, 1 healer, 3 dps) but you can try solo it, or bring up to 20 people to massively increase the difficulty and the rewards. Instances would follow WoW dungeon's formula of trash mobs (which drop crafting materials and have rare drop chances for certain gear) pathing you towards a succession of bosses with very different, complex mechanics with stages, signaled abilities, and skill requirements.

This would include a character levelling system to unlock new class abilities and mechanisms, a party finder system, certain dungeons locked behind character level and the completion of other dungeons at a certain difficulty level. Perhaps you could extend it to add in "world bosses", massive 200-man bosses with a chance at particularly unique loot, but of course that would require a certain level of infrastructure and a game population making it justifiable.

I want Star Citizen… The Star Citizen that was promised in the Kickstarter… Still waiting.

A strategy/management sim where you are a Madam running a brothel. Lots of ways to take it-- set it in different places/eras to signify how far under the radar you have to be, change your regime from harsh to compassionate, build out the brothel itself, recruit talent (ethically or unethically), decide if you want to theme the establishment to attract a certain clientele-- lots of interesting things you could do with the setting!

A modern game that lets you play split-screen, LAN, and over the internet. I'm sure they exist, but they're so, so rare, and I'm pissed off about it.

I just want a high quality horse game. Is that so much to ask? :( Apparently so.

And I mean, specifically focused on the horses, not an adventure game with unusually well done “horses as cars” like RDR2 or Zelda BOTW. A “girly” horse game, like one where you take care of and breed horses and participate in horse jumping or whatever, or one where you ride a horse around a forest and it has an actual personality and acts like an animal and not just a mode of transportation (Shadow of the Colossus is the one game I can remember feeling anywhere close to this, and even that was very minimal).

It’s maddening because the minute someone makes one it’ll sell like hotcakes - there are so many horse enthusiasts dismayed by the lack of quality horse games just waiting in the wings - aaaaand yet here we are. Sigh.

Suikoden 2 gacha with branching storylines for each single character

I want several parts of several games merged together. I want DF’s level of complexity, set in space, with parts of Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen, and a more comprehensive system of adjusting power to systems. Like I want to be in a big battle and if I get damaged on the right side, I have to actually route power through undamaged systems in a more complex way than just “weapons, shields, engines” with no regard to the power conduits in your ship that may or may not exist after a big hole’s been blasted in ya.

I want to capture the essence of the random shit the crew says in a fight in Star Trek, without it just being a simple flip of a switch. I want “fake science” that I can perform… Like sending various forms of energy through the deflector dish to do stuff. I can’t even really describe it because it’s one of those things that really isn’t even possible with a modern video game. It would require dynamics that I don’t think you can code with traditional systems; it would need quantum computing or some kind of AI to create new elements of the game on the fly.

I want a Persona game but with the characters in college instead of highschool.

Maybe Shin Megami Tensei has older characters? But the problem is the vibe is so different. A lot of anime/manga with older characters go for a completely different tone. The friendship and family theme heart of the Persona games, and the hopefulness, is essential to me. I just want some of that hope for but targeted at adults for once.

Imo “adult” aimed media often has a real problem with conflating maturity with misery and sex. I know I’m not the only one who feels this way because it’s gotta be part of why so many adults still read YA books and play games with precocious teenage protagonists.
