Episode 304: Making an RPG Based on a Computer Game, Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene
In this Episode Saul and Jolene talk about making a RPG from a computer game. This was from a question that Saul read online about a father that wanted to make a RPG for his kids that played Destiny 2. Saul thought he recognized the game and even thought he had the older computer game but he was thinking of Mass Effect 2. Still Jolene and Saul discussed the trials and tribulations of making your own RPG.
It has been Saul's belief that making your own game would be a big work and time investment. But a few years ago he saw the show Carnival Row. He even downloaded a free version that used the Cypher System from Monte Cook Games. It had a lot of the lore and art from the show but Saul didn't like the Cypher System for this game. He set to port it to Free Leagues Year Zero Engine. This was before Free League put out their SRD or their version of the OGL.
And just a couple of months ago Saul wrote up another game based on Year Zero about cuddly animals going on adventures in the spirit of The Wind the the Willows, Watership Down, Books by Brian Jacques. Saul wrote it in one day and with a bit of adjustments he made a playable game where he ran two separate adventures.
So it can be done. Saul and Jolene also talk about writing a RPG with a big IP and whether its worth trying to publish such a RPG game.
