Hello, my name is Simon and I have been developing a CRPG game for around 5 years (mostly pen-and-paper) called Distant Fears. I felt that it was the right time to start gathering a few thoughts on what you CRPGers wanted in a game. If you could take 2 minutes of your time to fill out a simple, small questionnaire and return it to me at kalelegion@gmail.com (copy and paste questionnaire into an email) I would much appreciate it. Thank you for your time.

Thank you so much for your time, just copy and paste the above form into an email and send it to kalelegion@gmail.com.
 
I don't know what half of that stuff means. You should probably take it to the Gold Saucer section of the forums and ask. You may get more answers there. Also, try to explain what some of the stuff means. I don't know what CRPG or Linear whatever is. xD

Anywho, welcome to FFF. :monster:
 
CRPG is stated in brackets before the questions begin and linear (line-ar) means straight, as in not veering off in different directions. I only posted here as I am a new member and it would've been rude not introducing myself ^^
 
Hey, this isnt really a welcome thread. But I'll try and move it to the correct area and hopefully people may respond.

Welcome anyhoo!
 
This certainly looks like a fun questionnaire, but I'm not even sure what you want it for. ^.^




1. Do you prefer:

I'm not sure what you mean by linear. Do you mean 2D/3D?


2. Do you prefer:

I prefer a combination of ATB and first person.



3. Would you like to see a different system for controlling characters during battle?

Yes. Like I said, I like a combined ATB/first person battle style. I'd like to see a game with good battle system perks in the future.


4. What do you most look for in a CRPG?

I think that the characters make the game what it is. You can have a really great storyline and great gameplay, but if the characters suck...the game sucks. A good storyline is a must. If the story doesn't interest me, I'll drop the gameplay, regardless of the other good aspects.
Gameplay is a really important factor as well. I love a game with lots of good perks, side quests, items, etc...


5. What sort of setting do you prefer to see in a CRPG?

The setting really doesn't matter. It isn't the setting that makes the game what it is. You can have a successful game in any setting, so long as the characters and the story have good meaning.


6. What sort of creatures/monsters do you prefer to see in a CRPG?

This has everything to do with the plot, really.


7. In a storyline, what do you most look for?

A storyline just needs a good introduction, a good twist, and a good finale.


8. What do you most like to see in a quest/adventure?

You mean sidequests? I like to bring home some great goods after a sidequest. I also love to see fun character interaction on the side.


9. What do you look for in a character?

I like the characters to have a good, solid background. If you have a dull, worthless, pointless character, the game just sucks.


10. Do you like the concept of human emotions being used to create a CRPG?

What?


11. Do you like the game-title Distant Fears?

No, it sucks. Emo.
 
Hopefully you will check back here for the answers, for my Yahoo Mail is not working at the moment.

Ty to Rhea and Leki, answers are most appreciated I asure you :) The point of the questionnaire is to gather information from RPGers that will benefit to the creation of my game, Distant Fears.

And just for the sake of knowledge, CTB stands for Conditional Turn-Based; ATB stands for Active Time Battle; RTB stands for Real Time Battle
