cutsleeve Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 Will Fantasy Hero include conventions for imitating console rpg's like maybe genre descriptions or something like that. Maybe the stats for a giant yellow riding chicken. Or is the book just going to center around classical fantasy backgrounds. just curious is all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgaptte Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 I'm sorry, I think you might have to wait for the giant yellow riding chicken expansion. You'll have to check the schedule to see when it'll be out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutsleeve Posted June 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 no fair everyone needs a giant yellow riding chicken especially one that can run really fast and can run over mountians and water and stuff. hmmmmmmm if it doesnt have stats for the giant yellow riding chicken what about cacti with arms and legs and a perpetually suprised look on their faces. or maybe a lil green salamander type guy who carries a lantern and a kitchen knife.

Starlord Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 It sounds like he's talking about Chocobo's, from the Final Fantasy games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 FH has no specific conventions or notes for simulating console "RPGs," except insofar as they use tropes and themes common to all Fantasy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechnoViking Posted June 3, 2003 Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 I don't think it will be hard to use FH to emulate console RPG. For example, if you wanted to do Final Fantasy VIII, the magic system would be based on a VPP with a limitation you can only cast spell you have absorbed from your enemies. Also you would have to have some focus based summons to emulate the avatars. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, I would assume, no giant yellow riding chickens. Or, for that matter, intelligent squirrels riding a herd of trained combat armadillos....

cutsleeve Posted June 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2003 hmmmmmmm How about a lil fuzzy bear creature usually with white fur and a set of wings. If you speak to him and ask him nicely then if you die later on you will be instantly ressurected anywhere on the planet but its linked to a time travel usable by others to send you back to the moment you last talked with him. Wonder how that would be statted out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
