Exactly What It Says on the Tin
Feel free post your idea for game you wish someone would start or, if you're a GM type person, peruse this thread to see if there's anything that looks interesting that at least one other person has interest in too.
I think the former, Truth.
@Deadbeat:
It sounds promising!
...
But I can't really join because I haven't gotten the chance to watch the show. unu
GO AHEAD .... MR. JOEHSTUR .......I like the team-based challenge idea a lot.
I'd either go with one of the Toa teams (leaning toward either the Metru or Mahri), or go with 5 DOTA 2 characters.
Axe, Meepo, Skeleton King, Sven, and Chen amirite?
Also I've always wanted someone to make a Fallout RP, since I always want to make one but then I instead make stuff with fantasy or Star Wars or something instead.
I recently started dipping my toes into Battletech stuff again, mostly as a result of remembering Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries. Therefore, I think it'd be pretty cool to have an RP wherein you play as mechwarriors (preferably Inner Sphere, since Clanners would make it a little too easy). Presumably it'd be set during the Clan invasion of the IS.
The reason I wouldn't do it is because my grasp on the lore and canon isn't as solid as I'd like, and my mind boggles at all the considerations you'd need to take account of.
Another issue I can foresee is the fact that I don't think there's many people familiar with Battletech on this forum (though since I've given serious thought to a Starlancer RP, that isn't much of a problem).
Locking you up on radar since '09Ah... Reminds me of the time I made "The Historical Island" a sort of AGOG-style RPG where a guy gathers historical figures to an island.
Also, there should be an RPG that deconstructs the "everyone in the Multiverse is grabbed by a godly force and forced to do challenges" trope

That might be interesting, but my first thoughts on how to deconstruct it are "everyone beats up the godly force and then goes home". Hmmm.
Perhaps the RPG could turn into "How can they get back home" and the story is about their quest to go home.

...I like this idea. It could be, like, a fun multiversal roadtrip crossover thing.
I like that thing about the characters growing up. It's a good thing.
And there could be arcs where one of the members enters their world (ala AGOG's Reach Arc) and has the decision of moving with the group or leave the pack and go back home with another character replacing them. Death Is Cheap in the form of the godly force's microcosms influencing them all not to die, or at the very least stay dead for very long.
... That sounds really cool, tbh. I wouldn't mind rping that.
GO AHEAD .... MR. JOEHSTUR .......I am also up for that. Though wouldn't opposing and beating up said Godly Force dishevel the universe(s) and cause major bad karma to befell the heroes?
I dunno, I think if someone's plucking you from your home and forcing you to dance for their amusement, chances are they were probably evil to begin with and the multiverse was better off without them.
...That or something else will come in to fill the void of evil that's left over, but... >.> <.<

Or at the very least Chaotic.
By all means, go for it.

Evil/Chaotic or not, it is not a good idea to fight them anyway. Theoretically, do you expect Zeus to just let someone live, suffer-free if at all, if they somehow killed Hades and completely screwed over everything?
Or maybe they need your help?
Depends on the setting. From what I'd assume, most of the Godly Forces are just Jerkass God who just regard one of their own dying as "Meh, dude had it comin'" and no actual blood-driven revenge.
It may be interesting though for conflict, as maybe one of those Gods was the Godly Force's brother or son.
Okay. So characters get scooped up by Godly Force, said characters take no crap and beat up Godly Force, Godly Force's brother hunts them down as they figure out how to get home.
Sounds fun.
That comment just made me think of a multiversal Power Rangers RP.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
But yeah, I do kind of want to see that Kamen Rider crossover High School AU thing I suggested up there happen, but I don't think I've got the confidence to GM it myself.
"Yup. That tasted purple."So, what about that Highschool AU thing? OR the Team thing? Or the anything?
No I have no idea where I was going with that joke.
I'm still interested in the High School RP.
My interests are way up the BAR.

GO AHEAD .... MR. JOEHSTUR .......Well, I'm not really in high school anymore*, to be honest, so that might limit my enjoyment of such an RP.
Although I'd still be up for the team Olympics-type RP.

Although I think I just had possibly the daftest idea yet.
Kamen Rider High School AU. Or, to put it another way: Take what Kamen Rider Decade did to Kamen Rider Faiz and blow it out of proportion.
"Yup. That tasted purple."
