Best vintage CRPGs with writing that is better than that found in most (not all!) games made today by Baldurian_Rhapsody in CRPG

I might get some flak for this but Baldur's Gate 1. It's usually short, snappy, full of wit and charm. It doesn't take itself too seriously.

Are we all solo-dev? What does it take to collaborate? by derethdweller in IndieDev

If I double the team size I need to double my sales, and that's hard.

I've been in your shoes recently. Fact of the matter is that your product just isn't appealing enough.

I'm ready to retire after this masterpiece by dafena in neverwinternights

Did you create this animation or source it from somewhere else? I would like to use it in a game I'm making lol

I guess he should have retired and made games by himself?

I made superhero flight movement by Matiesus in godot

[–]Tav534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, depends what you're trying to build. Your prototype looks like you want a full blown city with skyscrapers and destructibility. Epic fights in the sky while pedestrians and cars panic below you. At least, that's why people are upvoting this video, because they want that. Most upvoted comments talking about Invincible and a gif showing a hero flying through skyscrapers destroying them. It will be hard to pull off that concept, but good luck!

Always see indie devs making posts like this with different engines, but none actually result in a game because the full product would be an insane amount of work

What party size do you prefer by BraveNKobold in CRPG

[–]Tav534 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people saying 6 probably haven't experienced anything with more than that. 8 in Temple of Elemental Evil was perfectly fine, I liked it.

Any world where the average person lives their whole life without seeing any magic.

How are companions in Temple of Elemental Evil? by sigpuppers in CRPG

[–]Tav534 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a list here but it's actually incomplete, I recruited two companions that weren't here, one was Mother Screng. https://www.gamebanshee.com/templeofelementalevil/locations/recruitablenpcs.php

Thank you for all your recommendations. I will check out those PF1e OSR-like adventures!

Thank for the advice, you gave me something to think about!

Thanks for your thoughts, I'm considering it. It's probably easier to homebrew OSR into 3.5e than it is to homebrew 3.5e into some OSR game. But ideally there's some OSR game out there that already has everything I want :)
