Current Events > Big video game execs call you, offering you full creative control of a series

(+) Yeah! (+)

Which one do you think you could guide best? Which would you most want to take over?

I want to take Need For Speed out of EA's hands so badly and make it good again.
---

COD.

We're gonna make Call of Duty great again.
---

Dead Island 2
---

Grand Theft Auto
---

Time to bring back FreeSpace, baby.
---

Paper Mario.
---

Absolutely Halo.

I unironically feel like I know what's best for the series.
---

Sanic the Hodgehog

I'd reboot the SatAM/Archie Comics universe, in game form
---

DKC

nintendo

shut it down

Step 1: Have Eric Nylund write the stories.

My job is done.

Oh man that's a good pick.

I'd take over Falcom, buy the rights to Xenogears from Square and remake it in the vision the creators originally visioned, following their Perfect Works timeline.

Bring back combos.

I'd have to go with Zelda, just because I love the series and have some great ideas for it (actually ones, not crap like a Great Flood game or something).

Another top pick would be Golden Sun. It has so much potential.

dead space
---

Pokemon, it's the only franchise I've been playing for a real long time that I feel is being underutilized.

PlanetSide

Now with more cute/busty anime girls

OGRE BATTLE rahh
---

Suikoden.

Hire back Yoshitaka Murayama.
---

Elder Scrolls, easily. Nowhere to go but up in terms of cohesive storytelling and characterization, and I've actually got quite a few good ideas, such as rival guilds, the ability to recruit unique guild members during the quest arc (and the time and energy you put into training your recruits directly affects the outcome of the questline), and the addition of a Scholarship skill that actually validates all that book-reading by allowing you to pass certain speech checks by citing literary, legal and historical precedent.
---

The one I'd most like to be a part of is Myst.

But I think Pokemon/Mario would be the ones I'd be better suited at revitalizing. Each of them has some glaring problems that could easily be fixed.
---

I'm gonna go with Elder Scrolls

The series has so much more potential and I don't think Bethesda is taking advantage of that
---

Suikoden

It needs my guidance

Sonic. Continue what was started with Mania and bring back Sonic Adventure gameplay for 3D releases (sans Big the Cat). Boost gameplay is dead.

But I like Big the Cat.
---

Fire Emblem, by far. Have beaten every game on hardest difficulty, so I have a good idea of how to scale it gameplay-wise, and have a lot of ideas on where I'd like to take the series creativity-wise.
---

Mega Man, if I get the power to start (and greenlight) new entries instead of just creative control over anything new that Capcom decides to make.

Also, if it counts (and it should), I would hire Inafune to come up with an idea or character design or two here and there (regardless of anything, he definitely did come up with some of the most memorable designs in the series) and Inti Creates to develop most of the games.
---

Final Fantasy. Rehire Sakaguchi and tell him to fix everything and make it turn-based. Tell Nomura to tone it down a bit.
---

Halo. Give it to me.

We're gonna make Call of Duty great again.

I'll go with this

Lengthen single player campaigns a lil bit for those who enjoy them (I'm one of them), for MP make larger maps, up the player count, bring back the old class system (you get one perk each from three different categories, a primary weapon, a secondary, a lethal and tactical). Maps can range from open areas like Wasteland to ones set in cities. Each map gets dynamic weather and lighting, one game you can get a rainy day, another game it takes place at night and in areas with poor lighting you need to take your chances in the dark or use night vision goggles/thermal scopes. Add some environmental destruction. Remove quickscoping.

Probably the recent WWE games, but only because they're so bad that they'd be easy to fix.

I will take the license for Star Wars games thanks very much. We're getting new KOTOR style games, and we're getting new Rogue Squadron style games, and we're getting better Battlefront style games.

And if you're limiting me to just one of those then I pick KOTOR
---

Star Wars games

or WWE 2k

or NBA 2k
---

Fire Emblem. Enough of this Waifu Emblem shit.
---

Star Wars game license

-KOTOR 3
-Rogue Squadron
-BattleFront 3
-Republic Commando 2

Plus a bunch of well made M rated star wars games that go into the darker seedier side of the series.
---

I bring Steambot Chronicles 2 back from the dead!
---

I will be the man who saves Star Wars

Not found because Disney wouldn't give him the spotlight he deserves
---

Elder Scrolls. Enough with Skyrim. About damn time to work on Elder Scrolls VI
---

Dragon's Dogma. I'm going to leave all the other big series, because I'm less confident about what I can do with those.
---

Wedge should be leading the fighter group as the ace pilot not Poe.
---

Destiny

I'd make it more like the "WoW" of consoles and just keep pumping out new expansions and not worrying about making new base games.

There's no reason I can't play D1 stuff on D2. Like, wtf.
---

I don't know shit about making video games. Gonna have to refuse the offer.

I don't think you need to know much to be the creative director tbh
