I've been playing it recently, and come on, couldn't that style of game be an incredible WoT video game?

I love the Baldur's Gate series of games, particularly the newer Enhanced Edition releases. but as Dunstan pointed out there is no real way to replicate RJ's magic system of Channeling. You could definitely recreate the WOT world under the game engine though. Sadly most all the video games have moved to FPS action instead of the traditional RPG gameplay.

Right? Beamdog needs to do this. TyrReborn - 04/04/2019 06:32:50 PM 783 Views
Channeling would be rather hard to get right in a video game. Dunstan - 04/04/2019 09:27:49 AM 753 Views
I suppose, but... TyrReborn - 04/04/2019 06:30:02 PM 765 Views
... Seriously, non-channelers CAN'T fight channelers head on. Dunstan - 05/04/2019 06:37:57 PM 751 Views
... I think you're thinking too big. TyrReborn - 06/04/2019 03:47:21 AM 799 Views
I was agreeing with Dunstan, but indeed, it would work better with the early books. Legolas - 06/04/2019 12:17:05 PM 752 Views
It... Didn't exactly go out of it's way to stick to the lore. Dunstan - 06/04/2019 04:13:13 PM 729 Views

Both TEotW and TGH had big One Power battles against armies. TDR just didn't have "armies". Dunstan - 06/04/2019 04:42:16 PM 779 Views

You don't have to recreate the actions of channeling. TyrReborn - 04/04/2019 06:31:26 PM 776 Views
I have tried a couple of times. Roland00 - 04/04/2019 10:04:53 PM 766 Views
You know there are loads of good games like that released in the past few years, right? Legolas - 06/04/2019 11:06:49 AM 732 Views
I know some of those, and almost bought a few at a time prior. Thank you for the list Roland00 - 07/04/2019 03:48:32 AM 732 Views
