Gaming

I want several parts of several games merged together. I want DF's level of complexity, set in space, with parts of Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen, and a more comprehensive system of adjusting power to systems. Like I want to be in a big battle and if I get damaged on the right side, I have to actually route power through undamaged systems in a more complex way than just "weapons, shields, engines" with no regard to the power conduits in your ship that may or may not exist after a big hole's been blasted in ya.

I want to capture the essence of the random shit the crew says in a fight in Star Trek, without it just being a simple flip of a switch. I want "fake science" that I can perform... Like sending various forms of energy through the deflector dish to do stuff. I can't even really describe it because it's one of those things that really isn't even possible with a modern video game. It would require dynamics that I don't think you can code with traditional systems; it would need quantum computing or some kind of AI to create new elements of the game on the fly.

I've been thinking about an ARPG based around World of Warcraft's mythic dungeons.

Scalable, multi-player, enhanceable instances where completion of more difficult versions of the instance rewards in better gear and crafting options.

The idea is that the content is created for a 5-man party (1 tank, 1 healer, 3 dps) but you can try solo it, or bring up to 20 people to massively increase the difficulty and the rewards. Instances would follow WoW dungeon's formula of trash mobs (which drop crafting materials and have rare drop chances for certain gear) pathing you towards a succession of bosses with very different, complex mechanics with stages, signaled abilities, and skill requirements.

This would include a character levelling system to unlock new class abilities and mechanisms, a party finder system, certain dungeons locked behind character level and the completion of other dungeons at a certain difficulty level. Perhaps you could extend it to add in "world bosses", massive 200-man bosses with a chance at particularly unique loot, but of course that would require a certain level of infrastructure and a game population making it justifiable.

If Crusader Kings is ever combined with Mount & Blade, I'll never see daylight again.

I want a new ski resort simulator game that also has the summer season.

No one has done a bug free version of the ski side in probably 2 decades at this point...

Suikoden 2 gacha with branching storylines for each single character

A multiplayer Dragon's Dogma game. I.E., a coop western-style third-person action RPG with a focus on exploration and interesting combat mechanics.

Outward came close but it's a bit too hardcore and focuses a bit more on survival mechanics.
