I've thought about that too. Nate Send a noteboard - 16/09/2011 07:12:48 PM
The Mount & Blade mod was fun, albeit it limited to combat and limited in interactivity. Apparently, the shooter was okay, but not great or particularly accurate.

Just give me a Elder Scrolls-type game in the Westlands and you won't hear from me again.


I almost feel as though the world of Wheel of Time might be too big to do up properly, but since this is unlimited resource land, that could be cool to see. The One Power would be easy to do as a game mechanic, and there are plenty of potential villains and cities and places to explore. My only concern might be the feel of the world. It's a pretty orderly world, all said. Unless I'm forgetting, we don't really see bandit groups or dangerous roads or dangerous wildlife or anything of that sort. It's a world where people move about and trade and travel and there aren't many everyday dangers that a player could confront and solve and defeat. Main story stuff with the Dark One's forces, maybe the Seanchan too, could be very good, but it might be difficult to come up with enough side quest fodder to fill the whole world.

Bethesda actually considered the license. They chose to make Skyrim instead. *NM* - 16/09/2011 04:57:26 PM 329 Views

I will say, the books are almost universally read amongst game designers, and it's a hot license. - 16/09/2011 05:11:48 PM 684 Views
