So, turns out a lot of people wanted to make an Role-Playing Game. Over 40% of the votes went to that genre.
However, RPG's are every type of game that is specifically designed to let you play a role and where the outcome is (partially) decided by background rolls.
From Final Fantasy to Dungeons and Dragons. From Skyrim to Kingdom Hearts. From World of Warcraft to The Witcher, they are all RPG's.
So in this round we'll narrow it down. What kind of RPG are we designing? Each of them has advantages and disadvantages, pros and cons good parts and bad parts.
We will discuss this until Sunday, when we'll be voting again.
Note 1: Please keep your suggestion limited to a couple of words (so it fits in the poll) and bold them, so I and others can see it easily. You are of course free to explain what you mean by those few words in length.
Note 2: We're not choosing the online capabilities of our hypothetical game at this step.
Note 3: We're also not choosing a setting yet. You can use setting to explain your suggestion, but it's not part of this step.
Have at it!
