Fuck movies where the dog diesThe Vincent Price movie based on the book is pretty good too.The real I Am Legend is a book about vampires.
Good book, good film, but I think the Will Smith version is underrated. Sure the ending is total crap, but the first 3/4 of that film is pretty damn good.
What about the alternative ending?The Vincent Price movie based on the book is pretty good too.The real I Am Legend is a book about vampires.

Indeed. However, that's not what the book is about. Its purpose is to drive home a certain viewpoint of humanity, especially in a post-civilized society (which is what I take issue with). Little, if any, of the overarching theme has got to do with children. Children were just a convenient vehicle for a variety of reasons.It explores how kids are monsters.It's a clear precursor. It's even kinda 'post-apocalyptic' in that it explores a pessimistic view of a simplified society broken down into tribalism and savagery.
Because all CRPG devs can do is copy what has already been doneTell me, how does it happen there is no post-apocalipstick set after the humanity actually fucking runs out of fuel and ammo and has to revert to actual iron age, without heavily customized M-16s and sports cars?
But it was done in the Canticle for Leibowitz.Because all CRPG devs can do is copy what has already been done
But it needs have been done as a CRPG. Preferably one with a sizeable following you can capitalize on.But it was done in the Canticle for Leibowitz.Because all CRPG devs can do is copy what has already been done

Well, you could add a copious amount of rape :D .Because that would be like playing your average fantasy RPG except without the dragons and magic.
Good thing you came, stranger. We need help with Marley's gang, they are gonna burn down the village if we don't give them all our coin. Here, take this iron sword and leather helmet. If you need more armor talk to Lester, the blacksmith.

Because it's entirely about "gee, let's take today sans law enforcement and fashion sense" power fantasy.
Pfft, I'd take elves and wizards over this crap any day.
Just don't make a world with elves and orcs and dungeons and forests and treasure because nothing good can come of it.
What about a Science-Fantasy post-apoc? Think something like Futuristic Post-Apoc Arcanum.
The world is wiped out by nukes, epic-level spells and hordes of monsters. Demons, Eldritch Abominations, robots, mutants, undead and left-over golems and elementals are going around the world causing chaos and devastation.
Closest thing to this seems to be WH40K.

I'd like to see more Science-Fantasy Post-apoc for sure. Just no elves or dwarves - replace them with mutants and/or aliens. Mutation opens up so many possibilities for weird races - the potential is still untapped in cRPGs.Just don't make a world with elves and orcs and dungeons and forests and treasure because nothing good can come of it.

The allure of post apocalyptic is never romance or interesting. It's the process of rebuild the ruins up to its former glory, or at least stem the tide of entropy.

Not for me. I just love to explore the ruins of the old world and see what abominations of nature have taken the place of the world's former masters. I would love a Thundarr the Barbarian style post-apocalyptic game.

Difference is that we'd be that ancient civilizationNot for me. I just love to explore the ruins of the old world and see what abominations of nature have taken the place of the world's former masters. I would love a Thundarr the Barbarian style post-apocalyptic game.
In this case, even Forgotten Realms are post-apocalyptic. Ruins of ancient civilizations who could cast 10th level spells or mold life at will at the height of their glory cover Faerun in a mile-thick layer.
Heck, I struggle to recall a fantasy which doesn't mention uberepic ancient golden age civilizations that only left monster-infested ruins behind. This trope is as old as elves with pointed ears.

I think some of the people at Obsidian said it was post-post-apocalypse. They were more interested in exploring what happens when society is coming back together.
FR has new civilizations that are the primary focus though. New Vegas barely felt post-apocalyptic to me despite all the old junk laying around and it was a huge turn-off.
