Harry Potter RPG
    #14860313 - 08/02/11 06:55 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

I know there has been plenty of harry potter games out; one if not more per book.  But what does everyone think of an actual 3d Harry Potter RPG?  The game could be so elaborate that the single player campaign would take you through each of the series books/sequences with immense detail and immersion, and there could be a multiplayer aspect that would allow you create your own harry potter character to interact with other players in a huge MMO type environment. 

I'm sure if enough time and effort were dedicated to the game it would turn out great and probably just in time for the 'next' book in the series =) I know many people belive the series to be over, but I sure would like to see the huge 19 year leap in the last book filled in with quirky side stories and such.  I've just grown to enjoy the movies so much over the past years that I really would like to see something new.  I'm not saying the series (book/movie) is lacking by any means.  I'm just hoping to experience the joy and adventure I found in the series in a new and exciting medium. 

I think the RPG aspect would stick really well to the Harry Potter realm as well; as it RPGs are usually magic oriented and the Harry Potter world is open to a great amount of exploration.

Perhaps this is just my way of greiving over the serie's end, but I feel like I wouldn't feel sad or upset if the series was really over. 

What I really don't want to see is another series of books written from another character's perspective or focal point.  If Ron's son were to get into a rivalry with malfoy's son, I'd probably ditch the whole thing.  But who's to know what the future holds?

I fucking hate harry potter, but it would only make sense to have an RPG. I don't doubt one is being developed.

I would check it out, something tells me it would be extremely limited in content though.

I feel so depressed now that the movie is over.  Then again, I never did read the 2nd, 5th, 6th, or 7th books, so I've got that to look forward too.  Any idea as to why so many people feel so disconnected from the series now that is "over"?  Do you think JK will write an 8th book?

I thought it was ok but was lacking the hogwarts connection most of the other movies had.  It was pretty cool seeing emma watson all giddy and studious.  And Ron and Harry were just fun to watch in school.  I was surprised at how dark of a turn the series took after the 3rd book.  The first one was all about magic and wonder, while the others were about fighting 'darkness' rather than overcoming it.  Either way, it was an amazing view into a magical world.  JK did a great job creating such a wonderous world.  Now, if only Hogwarts were real...=(

OP that's a good idea man. A Harry Potter RPG where you can create your own character and go through your own experiences at Hogwarts.

I think setting it directly after Harry's departure from Hogwarts would allow for more creative freedom, that way you could see the history and lore that Harry created while you play through the game yourself. Plus it would be a good continuation to the series that you could create yourself depending on the choices you make and things you do. I see a lot of possibilities with the whole Harry Potter RPG idea. :thumbup:

The MMO aspect would incorporate all of the sandbox/huge gameplay stuff. I'd personally like to see the single player stick to the story, it'd be great if they used the movie character's too; as with models and voiceovers.  It'd keep them together until the next movie :smile:

I'm not into Harry Potter, but an RPG would be sick. Provided it was completely separated from the books n shit.

I still think a solid single player that showcased each and every book would be best.  And the MMO aspect would be in the same timeframe as harry, just without him as the main character.  You could play your own story and roam the entire magical world.  It'd be great... :shakepepsi:

Kind of like LOTR Online? Where you can meet up with Frodo and all the other dudes at certain points while playing out your own story.

Anyone up for banding together and coming up with a portfolio for the game?  We could even send it in to developer's like blizzard/valve.  I've got some 3d modeling experience and have been playing games all of my life.

I think the best bet would be making a functioning mod of another game. That's how dice got their start. They made a mod for battlefield 1942 and the dev's liked it so much they gave them the startup money for their own company. Like the idea and would be up for contributing something though.

Good idea, maybe we can mod a classic harry potter game like sorcerers stone or chamber of secrets just to get the feel for it. :shrug:
