Re: GAME IDEAS
(Anonymous) 2014-04-05 12:17 am (UTC)(link)I got really far into planning a factions-based game but I was trying to fit too many concepts into one game so it got ridiculously unwieldy.
The basic idea was that the barriers between worlds were thin, and so people randomly turned up in [game world], all over the place - and since they often had special powers or abilities they were like sought after resources. So while characters weren't immediately forced from the beginning, the factions would all want a piece of them and be REALLY pushy about promoting their particular team/mafia group/etc.
Having each faction have a control of a portion of the city was another thing I was thinking of - there was no "neutral" area, and no law enforcement, so choosing a faction was a good way to get yourself safe and un-harrassed.
I think it would be interesting to have three factions, each with their own ideologies (maybe only purported) and methods - the sort of "robin hood" faction for more do-gooder types, the orderly but extensive criminal empire for Lawful folks, and the more chaotic, anarchic gang-type thing for characters that want to be loosely aligned but do their own thing?
