💡 Core Game Vision - What kind of RPG do we want to build?

Welcome to the very first step of our RPG project! 🎮
Before we dive into details like story, mechanics, or technology, let’s agree on the big picture:
👉 What type of RPG are we trying to create?

This thread is about defining our core vision, which will guide every later decision (storytelling, mechanics, art style, scope, etc.).

🔑 Key Questions to Discuss

• Type of RPG

  • Single-player? Co-op? MMO-style?
  • Real-time combat, turn-based, or hybrid?

• Inspirations

  • Which games inspire us (WoW, Skyrim, Baldur’s Gate, paper RPGs…)?
  • What do we love about them?
  • What frustrates us about them that we’d like to improve?

• Player Focus

  • Should the game be about character progression, story immersion, exploration, teamwork… or a mix?

• Our Unique Twist

  • What will make our RPG different from others?
  • Do we want a “signature feature” (e.g., innovative combat, deep diplomacy, dynamic world events)?

📝 How to Contribute

Please share your thoughts in whatever form works best for you:

• Short answers to the questions above
• References to games, books, or RPG sessions you’ve enjoyed
• Creative ideas, even if they feel ambitious — we’ll refine later

Don’t worry about technical feasibility yet. This is about dreaming big together ✨

✅ Next Steps

Once we gather enough ideas, we’ll try to:

1. Summarize the main directions everyone agrees on
2. Identify the key elements we want to keep
3. Move forward with discussions on Story & Setting and Gameplay Mechanics

🔥 Let’s start shaping the soul of our RPG!
