Well, there a lot of opinions flying around right now! I'm happy everybody
is so interested in it.. I do want to say this: I don't think either option
is beyond our reach. I know a lot of guys who work for studios started in
garages or whatever with a large group of friends and made something great.
I don't think we are any different! Maybe the first attempts will be
amateurish but it will improve with time, like anything would.
With that said, my heart will always be with making a brand new game.
:) I will do it one day, one way or another, and right now I have a taste for
sexy, low-res pce graphics :)
The kind of game it should be has been discussed at length.. So I
wanted to suggest the following compromise: How about an action RPG? That should give
everyone a little taste of what they'd want to see in a game I think.. Other genres I'm
really interested in doing are Digital Comics (Perhaps when I develop my own characters
to a really strong point I can get some help making this later on), or Adventure games. I
think an action RPG like magicoal or metroid sounds the best though.
On translating games though, I'm afraid there isn't much I can pitch
in.. My Japanese language skills bite :P and so do my programming skills :) I'd have to
sit back and watch.. I would love to see the Tengai Makyou games xlated though! :)
Finally, I just wanted to point out that both projects can exist at
once, with enough interest, so there really isn't a need to argue on what's easier/more
feasible.. Lets just try it and see what happens!
My half pence,
John H
