That kobold.

YEAH.  I'd play that game.  Maybe I just have a thing for kobold chicks.  Who remind me of Ayla.


(Also, I really liked the bloom effects posted in an earlier mockup screenshot...)

That post about the bald guys in the "dark mysterious" world with good/bad totally reminded me of the first time I saw a trailer for Dragon Age.

All I remember is a bunch of stereotypical bald guys and seductive vixens leaping out from behind rocks and attacking enemies.  I seriously thought it was a parody of modern games and laughed my butt off.

I just found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wurm_Online
Reading the description, there seems to be more than one similarity to everyone's favourite game.

I can tell you from personal experience that it's garbage.

It somehow made #20 on the PC Gamer top 20, god knows how if it's as bad as you say.

Admirable concept, crappy execution?

[Mfbrew]

That pcgamer list is the equivalent of asking a bunch of 16 year old girls to name the top 20 rock bands ever.

The dwarf needs a sidekick, maybe a hot tigerwoman chick samurai. Oh and the love interest. Better make her a hot elf chick. Make that two hot elf chicks and "slutty yet demure" human priestess type. Can we get Vin Diesel to voice the dwarf? We can make the dwarf completely bald, so it kindof looks like him...And the "big bad" should be a hot demon chick with naughty tentacles.

I prefer this cast:

Win Overload.

And somehow DF made into the PCgamer list...

God might not know but I do - lists of "top X" anything aren't worth the paper they're written on.

Who drew that? And is it from something else which just happens to bear a striking similarity to DF?

I mean, between the cats, elf, dwarf, kobold, and colossus, it looks straight out of DF, but you never know...

[Ieb]

Ah Wurm. I played that.
It's not bad, just really hard to get started, especially once you start getting hungry and fail to find any food and then things go horrible.

And my project to make stairways to heaven and floor it all closed failed when I found out you couldn't even do that.

Was very sad.
Also the point I stopped playing.

Anyway. To keep up with the thread...

In a simplified Dorf Fort, you designate an area that is a Mine, and depending on the location you get random pieces of stone, ore and gems.

The game would use atrocious amounts of HDR bloom, even if the graphics are still ASCII.

we need that, seriously. I can't imagine DF without it anymore. I MUST DO SOMETHING! *goes and creates tileset with glow*

Indeed, all dwarves must burn with an intense inner glow shining through their waxy skin, somewhere deep in the uncanny valley.

Spoiler: PREVIEW! (click to show/hide)

you cannot even tell anymore how many idlers you have : D
they probably already died by radiation, not that it matters...

Alright, now some excessive motion blur when moving around and a depth of field effect and it'll be all next-gen!

[darkrider2]

yeah just add some bloom, space marines, boobs, something about saving the world, immense graphics, level grind, DF will be a hit!

An elaborate description of the shape and size of the breasts (coming in many varieties) for the females in their character description is exactly what DF needs right now!

That is actually quite possible. We could even have them be different colors, or be covered in feathers!
