Current Events > A Mistborn PvP game would be totally achievable.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Atium could even be included, and be very functional in online multiplayer.

A player burns atium, his opponent(s) view a short cutscene (seamless from gameplay). This puts the opponent one second behind the atium-burning player, instead of experiencing their duel in real time. Simultaneously, the atium-burner, who is still technically in real time, will see a translucent shadow of his opponent attacking him about one second before the actual attack is delivered. If at any time the opponent starts burning atium, the first guy views the same quick cutscene his opponent did before, so now they're both playing in real time whilst numerous atium shadows spring from each player.

As I've been reading through the Mistborn Trilogy, I can't stop thinking about the amazing potential this series has for being a video game. In the first book, when Kelsier was teaching Vin how to use her powers for the first time, that even felt like a video game tutorial level. We've seen things like tin implemented before, like detective mode in the Arkham games.

I mean, fucking blue lines come out of a fucking Mistborn's goddamn chest to show them where motherfucking metals are located that can be pushed or goddamn pulled. Tell me motherfucking video games don't do shit like that all the goddamn time. Fuck!

This could be really cool. Or it could suck hard. Would be all in ththe execution.

Agreed. I bet From Software could pull it off.

Or imagine if From teamed up with Rocksteady. That's what actually needs to happen if Mistborn is ever to become an action game that includes PvP.
