I want a Action role-playing Mech game.
« on: July 02, 2010, 02:36:11 AM »
 8) I've been kicking this idea around in my head for years, Well ever since the Dota days. I've played my fair share of action RPG's, but they are all the same Fantasy based games that look the same. DOTA, then LoL and now HoN. Really.... I love the game play, but hate that they all look the same.

I want to see a Mech based action RPG that has the same feel as those games, but all Mechs. The only thing that makes a heroes stand out in those games is the in game look. That fact you can distinguish each hero in game. Every time I host a LAN party I go off on how it would be super easy to just re-skin the heroes with mech based kick ass skins. If I was good at graphic designs, I would have made this my life goal. Everyone thinks that Mech all have to look the same, Boxed shape with Gray and O.D.B. Green colors. That's not true at all. You can use all the same spell effects and just change the wording to to reflect the style of mech you want to play. If you don't think this is possible, Just hit me up about any hero in any of those games and I'll give you a reworded mech based hero. Health = Armor and Mana = Energy. If there are any good developer out there that read this and want more info, please feel free that rely ....

I wouldn't hold out for an RPG. I doubt you'll even see your character out of a Cinematic.

I could be wrong though.

Front Mission 4 was a mech rpg released on the PS2 that I greatly enjoyed. It allowed you to customize each mech on your team and the battles played out in a final fantasy tactics way with the battlefield split up into squares. Mechs can fulfill multiple rolls like artillery, close range brawler, etc. It was a really fun game when i played it.

Wait unti lthe new front mission comes out for 360 and ps3. It will have just what he wants there real time fights with rpg background. If they added MMO style online mode to it would be epic imo.

Also try front mission(the original) on the super famicom (nintendo) that was awsome.

the new front mission isn't even a real front mission game IMO.  It's just armored core with front mission skins :p

yeah it appears that way to me too, quite a shame really since Front Mission 4 was kind fun even if the story jumping was detrimental

If you are looking for an RPG game, there are quite a number of games that are good in its genre but since you don’t like all those fantasy stuff, I think it has been reduced to none that is suitable for you as RPG is basically a story line games and gamers wouldn’t want anything from the ordinary. Maybe you could try out Call of Duty 5, World at War, it is first person shooter but you get one hell of a storyline from the game.
