I'm starting up a RPG and I need help getting ideas making my RPG stand out. I have a few ideas, but they aren't that great. Nearly anything would help. Thanks.
Gonna need a bit of info bout' it.. like Tileset, medieval, future or whatever... Spells/no spells, and wut the terrain is going to look like, like Mountains or Plains or rainforest... oh, you know what I mean...
Don't make it like one of those RPG's that you just go around killing people, make an actual story, cuz they're more fun when theres a story.
Well this RPG already has a storyline, and it will have a battle system like Faith & Destiny. I would prefer not to release the storyline because I think it's badass and would rather have it be a surprise. As for the tileset, it will vary depending on your location. Farther north you go, more snow, farther into unsettled area's more trees, slums are dirty, etc. Yes there will be spells, and as for setting, it will be medieval typed. I just need to know some things that I can do to give the players more freedom, and make the game enjoyable. So like I said, anything will help.
Make it so there are secret caves aroung the map that arent part of the story, just extra little places to go to get kills, money, or treasure, or some special thing like a gem or something. That would be cool if u could find things under trees and stuff, if you go under a certain tree, you get some money or w/e. Not every tree though lol.
Extra stuff always makes the map a little more interesting, even a seperate path, never make a 1 way path with no fork in the road. Good Luck.
To make it more fun, make the characters say funny jokes or word games.
