Describe your dream RPG by combining the setting of one game with the gameplay of another

[V_K]

Wizardry 7 gameplay (but with fewer battles and more puzzles) and a horror/surrealist setting. Basically, a turn-based Legacy: Realms of Terror with a party and large world.
Or a Quest for Glory style game in a Shadowrun setting.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

L. A. Noire + Hammer and Sickle.=Ultimate noir detective game.

That's it really.

I've always dreamed of an open-world Hitman game with Blood Money's economy system built into it. So, something like Mafia 1 + Hitman: Blood Money.

Wait, this isn't an RPG. I'm drunk

 

[markec]

Deus Ex setting with Deus Ex gameplay only done by a competent developer.

There's no one "dream RPG" since there are many kinds of RPG I tend to find fun. But to put one in place... something as close to PnP setup as possible, rules heavy but in a loose enough way that it doesn't encourage powergaming, with content balanced such that combat and out of combat gameplay opportunities, interactions and reactivity are both given as much room and focus. A player driven narrative flow like in Fallout and Fallout 2. Not a storyfag game, but not really a combatfag either.

A near future (nonmagical) impending/imminent doom semi-political setup, a world almost in chaos with an excplicitly personal storyline for the protagonist that does not involve saving the world or even postponing an inevitable demise, but simply puts a little nobody there to deal with the situation in what ever manner he sees fit.

Anotherone could be otherwise similiar to the above, but with an American civil war setting and a game made in the vein of The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

 

[Villagkouras]

RPGs: Baldur's Gate saga + ToEE combat + PoE graphics

Action RPGs: Gothics + Dark Souls combat + The Witcher 3 writing/production

Planescape with Dark Messiah gameplay:

Now I have to instal DM again, damm.

To be honest something like this was produced in mid 90's. Codex favorite Colin MaBaldie was working on a game called "Planescape PSX", which hero was novice who just joined Harmonium ranks. On hist first mission he found out about conspiracy involving selling weapons to Blood Wars and of course he's the one who have to expose leaders of the plot and stop war from reaching other realities.

[Wayward Son]

Setting of Daggerfall combat/gameplay of Might and Magic

Setting of Ultima IV gameplay of Wasteland

 

[Dux]

I once had a dream of a game set in Middle-Earth with a refined Ultima Online thing going on and it was nice. I could build my own cottage. The game was open-ended and mellow.

 

[Abu Antar]

Demon's Souls setting with Shin Megami Tensei gameplay

Arcanum setting with ToEE combat or Divinity: Original Sin Combat

An Ivalice game (World of Final Fantasy XII, Tactics and Vagrant Story) with Baldur's Gate gameplay

 

[Got bored and left]

darklands setting with TOEE combat (or any game with even decent combat)

Any actual historical setting + Fallout 1.

Give these dudes all the brofists you have or else!

Also, Darklands setting plus Gothic. Hevan.

 

[pippin]

Shadowrun with TOEE combat

 

[Barnabas]

The Matrix using gta engine with Batman combat. As you level up more in the Matrix you begin to believe until you are the One full blown

Like me

 

[Serus]

Planescape Torment for the cool setting combined with any crpg with decent combat would be nice. Not very original, i know.
Fallout 1 setting combined with... the same as above.

Or Fallout 1 setting combined with Jagged Alliance 2 for gameplay. As a result: a post-apo crpg in Fallout setting with great tactical combat and some basic strategy elements !

Darklands setting AND gameplay minus rtwp combat combined with good tactical combat aka: Darklands meets Battle Brothers.

Wizardry 7 gameplay (but with fewer battles and more puzzles) and a horror/surrealist setting. Basically, a turn-based Legacy: Realms of Terror with a party and large world.
Or a Quest for Glory style game in a Shadowrun setting.

I'd play that. I mean the Wizardry 7 + Legacy game but QfG in Shadowrun sounds fun too.

 

[DawnrazorDCLXVI]

Elder Scrolls style Dune open universe game, with influences from Ultima.

 

[Sykar]

This won't suffice to make my RPG dream come true.

 

[mondblut]

Pools of Darkness setting and Pools of Darkness gameplay combine just fine.

 

[Thonius]

Fallout with silent Storm combat. Or fallout with E5 combat.
Pretty much any RPG with guns must have either SS combat or combat from E5.
Or Inquisitor from Warhammer 40k with actual detective work.

 

[SausageInYourFace]

I'd like to see something like Invisible Inc. in the Shadowrun setting.*

I'd also like to see something like Deus Ex in the Shadworun setting.

Shadowrun is bredy gud setting.

*or rather, take some elements of HBS SRs and mix them with some elements of InvInc.

 

[Serus]

Fallout with silent Storm combat. Or fallout with JA2 combat.
Pretty much any RPG with guns must have either SS combat or combat from Jagged Alliance 2.
...

Corrected a spelling error.

Spoiler

To be honest i haven't played E5 or its successors, on to do list, might be great - not denying it

 

[Severian Silk]

Almost anything+Battle Brothers gameplay.

Battle Brothers + Anatomically correct human beings

RTwP done right. Amazingly intense firefights.

 

[Xorphitus]

I don't have just one dream rpg. One of my dream rpgs would combine Everquest with turnbased blobber. Another of my dream rpgs would be Ultima 3 with a tactics style game.

 

[AbounI]

Talespire of the Chalice 2

 

[Dorateen]

World of Xeen setting (a post-Unification adventure) with SSI Gold Box combat.
