New Mod Ideas, just maybe

Post by Cao Bao »

I think it is not easy to make a mod that would interest other people to play, although we already making perfect plot, perfect map, perfect conversation, perfect NPC, etc.
Maybe the major reason is because people do not familiar with the new plot.

Maybe the only way to steal their interest is to hijack several important or famous names.
These names could be from other famous games, or from some famous movies, or from some famous historical person.

For example is, we make a mod, and attach some names like: Arthur, or Arthas, or maybe Leonidas, or maybe Legolas, or Napoleon.
These NPC could be stay there as ordinary NPC, or the ones to give some quest or mini quest.

Putting several known/famous names there would take more interest from other players, I think.

Well, that's only some thought.

Hijacking famous persons without plot doesn’t make much sense, IMO.
Best thing to do for you would be writing plot that involves those people and wher you would situate them and what they talk about. Put live in this idea and maybe someone picks up on it, or even better, you can start a mod on your own.

I was toying with the idea of a libre mini-game with some simple pixel art to be able to be included with the stock Exult install.

It would be cool if Colourless Dragon's art merge were somehow included, maybe, for a "real" new game. A "build shared art" option would be needed after setting up the BG and SI paths.
