If there is one thing that came out of this, it's when I was making this. I think it was Liberty who suggested that I could check out the shop screen from this game to display the vast number of characters that would be in that game. I went in a slightly direction that what this game does, but, I still have to give some respect to this game for how to display character sprites in the shop screen to begin with.
*Edit: This getting a necropost makes me think about Apon the Brow of Tomorrow, Clear, and how many times Liberty has tried to put that together. ;_;

Feel free to be the change you want to see in the world and revive it yourself.
I think this game has a lot of promise and a lot of awesome ideas, but I do not have positive memories of working on it due to some behind the scenes issues, so if it's going to be revived, it's not going to be by me.

I know this is necroposting and probably wishful thinking, but one day this project will be revived, and I will be there to witness it.
True. I was just listening to one of the battle themes i had and thought "This would go so well with Hitori." Nostalgia ensued.

*sprinkles fairy dust on the thread* I miss this
I mean, I kinda feel the same way, on occasion, with this, and Libby's Manor Map Madness games. However, I respect the decision to drop it/them. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is learn from the mistakes that were made, and move on.
unity did a lovely job collating all this info and creating the start of a project, all for the sake of RMN. i am happy when a developer knows their limits, and happy for a happier unity. may you continue to be fantastic, unity <3

As a last point, when the team is finalized, please let me know so I can add all the members as developers. After this has happened, you may remove me as a developer.
Don't get all emo on us. All developers, even those who have contributed things in the past, deserve to be credited as developers on the project.
Silly billy :P

@ Sooz: Three multiplayer games, a digital LEGO equivalent, and a game that lacked particularly complex plot but was praised for its characters just about any time it's mentioned? Quite frankly, not the best examples to compare to this very-much-singleplayer project with rather traditional gameplay mechanics on the whole. The case looks even weaker given that the same timeframe also gave us the unquestionably successful (even if controversial) Dear Esther, The Stanley Parable and Gone Home, + the constant stream of Telltale games, which have barely more gameplay than the previous examples.
The rest is indeed best discussed at the forums, since there's much scope for debate and interpretation. I doubt I would be able participate in such full-fledged discussion at the moment, unfortunately (maybe in a month's time?)
I don't think "discussion" means "discrediting other people's statements without addressing the underlying points they make." Both LockeZ and Sooz had credible things to say about the discussion, but rather than take either of their statements you've in fact further derailed discussion by pointing out mundane details about how their statements could have been addressed better or that someone connected to one of their quotes has flawed past opinions. The important part of those post actually was the actual content of their post as it relates to the project, not the quality of the quotes they used or the games they referenced. I appreciate your viewpoint as an outsider to the project, but please keep these kinds of discussions out of this topic as they aren't useful.

Guys, games can work with or without intricate plots! Weewow.

author=NeverSilentI'll shut my mouth and open my program to continue work on the map.
Okay, serious reply now. Normally, I would strongly object to the idea that the story in a game is unimportant - but I think that in this case, we can all agree that plot was never the central focus of Wyrm Warriors to begin with. The one and only thing that is important right now is to actually get some more of the game (and by that I mean gameplay and progression) done. It's totally cool to dream about what we could all add to make the game even better or more interesting, but none of that is any good if there is not even a game to begin with. Let's get done what we really need first before we worry about what we could maybe do as well.
As for you, BurningTyger, you constantly keep trying to completely reshape the entire project to fit your own vision (even though the concept had been decided on long ago by Craze, unity and the community). At the same time, you've hardly contributed anything substantial. Your enthusiasm is appreciated, but please either put all that energy into something that actually helps the project (for example your which maps you still haven't finished) or refrain from messing with the project altogether if you can't control yourself.
You do not have to respond to this post.
I hope we can stop wasting our energy on nonsensical, destructive arguments now and get Wyrm Warriors going again as a team. CashmereCat, you've made a good start, and I'll make sure to contact you soon to discuss some puzzle ideas. Thanks a lot!

Yeah, I guess I can't think of any recent games with minimal plot that were wildly successful and good. Not a single goddam game.
Plot and character in games can be fun, but the important thing in games is gameplay. You can have a great game with minimal writing.
(I'd also argue that games are really not an ideal medium for the kind of complex shit JRPGs and the like are known for. Like, if you seriously think any video game stacks up to other media in terms of characterization, please go read more books.)
OK I'm done babbling and we should probably take this to the garme discussion forum if we really want to pursue it.

@ NeverSilent: Yeah, I'll just leave you guys to it, I guess. Hope you get it done and it's successful overall.
@ LockeZ: My point was that those three unquestionable successes were back then, at the 3D gaming's inception. When he tried to follow that same approach in modern times, it led to abject failure. He realised that, which is why he stepped away from actually designing games and found unquestionable success in creating VR hardware for games.
