Basically I've been reading alot about Sourceworld lately, and it could be one of the most astounding games ever.
However I'm saddened, because it gives me so many ideas for another world: Shadowrun.
There are alot of Cyberpunk mods in the making, but none of them fulfill my vision.
To me, it would be a crime to not create a Shadowrun mod.
The problem? I can't code.
If I could code I would make the damn thing all by myself, even if it took me 2 years.
I know alot of creative people come on here, with nothing, they have no skills, no team, no premade work, all they have is an idea, and their mods rarely are ever built.
However every day I dream about this mod, I come up with so many ideas while I play a Shadowrun MUD. I simply cannot live until this mod is built.
So I try once again, to maybe recruit some people that share my vision.
For those who don't know what shadowrun is, I will explain it.
It's set in the year 2060.
In 2020 or so, the Awakening happened. Basically what the Awakening is, is when the world we live in today(aka the real world you see outside your window) discovered that the world is not quite what it seems.
There is magic. There are elves, trolls, and all sorts of other creatures.
There is The Matrix. Which is somewhat like the movie(except this matrix was designed way before the movie was made), where deckers plug in and surf the cyberspace.
There is the astral plane, which is when a magician leaves his body, and enters a reality plane that only magical entities can enter.
The world itself is highly technical, there's black market bioware and cyberware.
Cyberware is for example, a mechanical arm, that replaces your natural arm, or titanium bone lacing, which is when you lace all your bones in your body with titanium, to give yourself better armor.
There is 'rigging', which is basically car workshop.
You can build your own cars, drive around town, you can upgrade your engines or put machine guns on the front of the car.
On the one hand, you have a whole technical futuristic side, with cars, the Matrix, decking, electronics, and weaponry.
On the other you have the dark ages type magical side, with magical items, magical beings, you have trolls, elves, oni's, and a bunch of other otherwordly creatures.
You would have tons of weapons, ranging from futuristic firearms, to medieaval japanese swords.
You would have several types of languages, including spanish, japanese, english. Which the player would have to learn to be able to understand characters.
There would be tons of clothes and merchandise, and hidden items and places around the world. We would make sure every 'avatar' would look different.
There would be Johnsons, which give out jobs for players to do, spread around the world, and new johnsons added monthly.
For example, a johnson gives you a mission to kill some guy in a penthouse. If you're a mage you could make yourself invisible and sneak in, then drop some poison in his food, or just do he old silent knife kill.
If you're a decker, you could log in to the matrix and turn off all security and the lights, then proceed to sneak in and kill him.
Or you could hire a team of other players, and they could help you kill him for a fee, you could have a decker to take out security, a mage to scope the area via the astral plane.
The possibilities are endless.
I simply cannot be the only one who sees the complete and utter awesomeness of such a game.
It would simply own everything else out of the water.
Am I right or am I right?
If there are anyone out there, who shares this vision and have the skills to make it happen, please contact me and we can make it happen together.
I know it's not an impossible project, it may take alot of time, but it would be worth it. Such a game would have so much replayability, it's just ridiculous..
So please, I can't get this out of my head especially since no shadowrun world has ever been created in 3D
