If somebody were to make a mod, would you play it?

  1. Sure, don't see why not.

    In 2001, a company called Troika Games made a great RPG called Arcanum. This RPG ended up selling more than a million copies and made several gaming magazines and websites.

    That being said, how many of you are actually still interested in playing an Arcanum module? I've got an idea for a story, and if I can peak your interests I might throw Arcanum back on my computer and try out my idea.

    Any input is appreciated.

    I'll put that on my to-do list. Including the naked female elves. :D

    All you have to do is make it. People will download it over time.

    The horses cannot be made to drink. But leave them near a stream long enough and they will.

    Just make the thing and I'll let you know whether or not it made me want to rip my guts out.

    Good to see I'm not the only one who's working on a side-project.

    Something that I think would be nice is instead of simply having followers that stay with you all the time, etc, also include hirelings that you can hire and will follow you for a certain amount of time based on how much money you paid them, your charisma, etc. Have something like guilds that you can go to and hire specialists. A mages guild for hiring people specializing in certain colleges, a temple to hiring cleric-like people, fighters specializing in white necromancy, thieves guild, etc, etc.

    That is an excellent idea. You also need to remember though that there is a limit to followers, not just game imposed. If you have more than a handful of followers your game will lag to unplayability.
