For this extra weekend Kevin gathers up more hopeful future game ideas from part of the Trophy Talk cast and Discord. We start with a follow-up to Max’s latest episode of the Moogle Cast where Kevin was a guest for a breakdown of the Bioshock series. This time he digs into an old folder on his hard drive to share an idea he had for a future game that would follow up Bioshock Infinite. While it still feels like Bioshock, it’s a new concept, setting, and story that would include the epic and grand ideas that the series is known for.
Then Max takes the stage and shares his extremely detailed design for what the next game for Astro Bot should be. He covers how it should help launch the PlayStation 6 in the same way Astro’s Playroom helped the PlayStation 5 and also how it might redeem Sony’s failed attempt at live-service games (eeeww). As detailed as some of Kevin’s ideas have been, they are nothing compared to what Max has prepared for this game.
To follow that up Jordan Vickers stops to pitch some of his ideas for three games that he wants to see. He starts off with a few easy concepts for games that sound like they are perfect new directions for the series they come from, and then pitches a third game that would reboot a long-dead game from the 90’s that not many of us have heard of. After finding footage of it and seeing a trailer for a failed reboot, this game has to be made.
Gary from the Platinum Achievements podcast then joins in to give some ideas for a few beloved series that already have plenty of games, but deserve even more spin-off ideas into other genres. After a few of these game ideas both Kevin and Gary realize they need to start a game studio because they seem to be so good at adding to each other’s ideas.
We hope you all have a great weekend and have a great time listening to some more of our lofty dream game ideas. Be excellent to each other!
