I'd buy controlling share of all three companies that own Pokemon and change absolutely nothing except fund Game Freak to hire more software talent and give them enough time for an actual development cycle worth a damn.

No, bad. Spray bottle

Id like to see a dark mirror series of star trek starting from 'evil' Spock sending the crew of the enterprise back to their reality. Following his struggles to convert the Terran Empire into the Federation.

TV limited series adaptations of The Culture novels. Amazon obviously made a start before giving up but they picked absolutely the wrong one to start with.
Yes Consider Phlebus is the first chronologically but a TV series where you have to replace the main character every episode does not work when you are already trying to adapt a very difficult IP. Player of Games is where you want to begin. Clear storyline, no tricky time/universe/world jumps. Spends most of the time in an Earth-esque civilization. If you can successfully adapt PoG then you can try something more challenging like Phlebus or Use of Weapons.

Kerbal space program 2 with multiplayer.

Kitten Space Agency was just announced with a lot of former KSP folks, but still super early and not sure if they'll make it to the finish line

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Definitely Scavengers Reign season 2. That show is so unique and refreshing.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

I'd buy Magic The Gathering and just make it less greedy

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Mixed media adaptations of all things Cosmere related and Brandon Sanderson would have full creative control.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

the people who made arcane would get all my money and as much time as they need to make more league shows.

Legacy of Kain, and the SoulReaver series.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

I played the remake and it really needed a lot more tweaking than it got...

Plenty of bugs not in there original too. It deserved better.

Yes, an rpg vector based video game to play in the browser. Actually trying to rearrange my life so I can make it :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Call of Duty type game. Remove sliding, tac sprint, bunny hopping, EOMM, and microtransactions to bring back a true casual fps game.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Baten Kaitos 3.

It's a jrpg series. The twist was that it had pseudo-"deck building" turn-based combat where on your turn your had to complete runs within a time limit to attack.

They released the first game, then did a prequel. The prequel improved on the first game massively, but you could tell they didn't have as much budget.

A third game was planned but never completed. They recently released an HD remaster of the first two games which gives me a little hope, but the series has been overshadowed by the team's current breadwinner, Xenoblade Chronicles (Shulk from SSBU).

A great game that uses time traveling as a key gameplay and plot device.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Games with time travel are very rare, there are a couple that come to mind.

Time splitters uses time travel in the plot and very little mechanically.

Achron is an RTS with time travel mechanics that's honestly the only game I've ever played that allows you to time travel freely. E.g. send a scout to the enemy base, he gets killed, so you go back and don't send him.

There’s an answer right there.

I’d like to remake Darkest of Days and let it live up to its potential.

I would like to make a movie where I talk to my friends and we hang out and cook and eat and maybe do some fun and nice things in the community, like talking to people we don't know and getting them to join us. I don't really care how the movie turns out though, it just sounds fun to make.

More sense8. I enjoyed it but I fear it was too queer for genpop.

Farscape.

Modern visuals, Muppets, a team of good writers and the core cast returning could be really good. Black and Browder wouldn't be too old yet to make the characters work.

That chaotic universe could provide so many posibilities to explore if done right.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Someone made the point previously about Disney owning Muppets now and doing live action adaptations of all the animated films when they have the opportunity to do muppet versions instead.

Although I would absolutely want more farscape.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Hoky crap, Inever thought of this but a remake of Farscape would be great.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

I'd go for a continuation instead of remake. And I just checked, just last year there have been discussions with Jim Henson Company and Rockne O'Bannon (Farscape's co-creator) about continuing the story. Nothing solid, but there is hope...

Kill 6 billion demons could be agreat show.

Fix up The Hobbit into 2 movies, with more practical effects, or at least more subtle cgi.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Make it six movies to really let Tolkien's totally necessary interspecies romance room to grow.
