IRE Asks: What video game should have IRE themed downloadable content?

Sarapis Achaea

While some predicted the death of PC gaming during the Console Wars, game modifications and downloadable content are as popular as ever, especially as Bethesda's single-player juggernaut Skyrim prepares to release its devkit this week. The Steam Workshop will be fully integrated so players can just browse and download mods right from Steam, without having to hunt through mod sites like ModDB or TesNexus for hours. Who wouldn't love to see a fully modelled Azdun dungeon put into the game by a toolkit-savvy IRE fan?

 

Many other games also support fan-made creations, and would be just as awesome. Hey, is that an Aetolia t-shirt Niko Bellic is sporting in Grand Theft Auto? And I could've sworn the fighter jet that flew by in BattleField 3 had the Iron Realms logo stamped on its side. And it seems almost a shame that you can't headhunt zombies with a Lupine bow in Left 4 Dead. I guess the only place for an Iron Realms addict to get their fix is from the source. If you could have IRE themed content in any video game, what would it be?

Skyrim!

I agree.

Yes! :D

any Elder Scrolls game please. Maybe Fallout too

I'd rather see it in an Elder Scrolls game, but... the thought of having a nondecay weapon in Fallout is tempting as well.

 

ah yes, nondecay :D

Dooo it

Unless, of course, it led to Lusternia!

agreeeed

 

I know you're here just for the free credit, most of us are, but please try to at least saying -something- worth reading other than just "Yes" and "Agreeeed". I mean, you took the time to create a profile picture for your account and then make meaningless posts like this. Seems a bit silly.

It would pretty neat to see an IRE shoutout in a film. Someone playing MkO on the computer! :P

 

 

 

yep.

 

Considered just leaving it at that, but I actually do agree with your second point. If they can show someone playing WOW to indicate that they are a geek, then MUD's are at least 50% geekier. It'd be fun to see the "scrolling screens of code" that they tend to put in front of these characters replaced with the output of one of the IRE games.

I.....agree. :D

yep

yep

already skyrimish.

I agree, Skyrim! That would be amazing!

Any of the elder scrolls games would be awesome. Being able to really walk around in all the cities and forests would be pretty awesome..

I'm pretty sure my head would explode if Achaea was implemented well in 3D.

Dragon Age would be pretty awesome as well!

starcaft

ZERG in the UNDERVAULT! It could be kind of like in the campaign of Wings of Liberty!

Aint Glom zergish enough!?

Obviously, the most fun you can have is making castles and killing everyone you know.

I would play the sims if it had IRE additions.

+1 That would be awesome

Wholeheartedly.

I just imagined a hobgoblin family using computers and playing games on the tv... it was really odd... but awesome.

Makes me wish I had skyrim on PC, instead of Xbox!

Though only tenuously related i want other stories from other ire games to be found in achaea and the other way round.

or a merger among the games

that would be nice, I agree with you Stuart

Why would you want that?

the old amiga one, not the lame PC one.

Skyward Sword

Hahah!

Win! Have Link become a Runewarden! And Make Ganondorf an Infernal! And watch them spend hours and hours at a forge to try and make the better Fullplate! XP

 

Or Better yet, OOT, and have Link start out in Eleusis! Hahah! Can you imagine what Eleusis would be like if all the citizens were Kokiri!

 

Hey... ok, that just gave me some freaky ideas. Integrate the Legend of Zelda OOT races into Achaea.

Just imagine how much faster the bashing would be...  (But seriously Skyrim or Age of Empires)

IRE themed stuff for Team Fortess 2? All the 'cool' games seem to be doing it. Or maybe some heroes for League of Legends, since lots of people at least in Lusternia seem to play that :)

THIS. Many of the IRE classes are unique, and would make for great League of Legends characters. For example, the Runewarden class can make for a pretty good support or tanky DPS; the Apostate a CC-focused class; there's already a Druid in Udyr, too.

 

And I'd bet there are way more ideas in the other IRE games!

I wonder how retardation would work in LoL, hm..

Negative CDR? That sounds OP though. XD

 

Well, nah, maybe it'll just be an attack-speed debuff, or all abilities requiring channel time. That's interesting, though!

Diablo

That would be epic. I loved Diablo.

To right :)

Yes!! Diablo III mods would be awesome!

That would be great! Sneaking through the Azdun dungeon in Diablo.

wow, that would be cool

World of Warcraft!

any

any

yep

yep

a recreation of a location of an iron realms game through the skyrim mod would be pretty neat to see

Now that would be cool. There are some amazing area decriptions that could be turned into Skyrim areas, though would they live up to the text?

I'd get the floating prison from morrowind and turn it into Moons spawn from the Malazan books and ride around in my own floating castle

Only if there are a couple of sweary soldiers hanging about.

 

at least, it's CALLED Moon's Spawn.

Meteor arrow to the knee?

Why can't I escape that qoute.. please..

I can dig it

Then there wouldn't even be any knee left to guard with.

neat

Have a cheat to spawn mounts from achaea! Hahaha imagine riding around in a flame-charred chariot or a chimera and killing pedestrians. Oooh the Witcher 2 would also be perfect for IRE themed things the possibilities there are quite endless.

 

Woudlnt it be possible to already have IRE themed clothing in Sims? I mean I am sure it is possible to customize your own.

Yeah would be nice

sims

combat sounds pretty good

Immortal combat!

Beaten both to GTA and Diablo!

How about Borderlands?

 

^

Yes

No idea..... maybe a sapience map for CS:S

Great Idea Me!

Your awsome

No

Your awsomer

Wonder how far we can take this

If theres a point where it just stops tabbing the comments

 

Yep

We're limited to 5 comment levels deep

Good test...

I think you could convert Aetolia to a Dizzy-esque adventure game quite comfortably...

God, haven't heard about that game in years.  I'm still stunned that I actually beat it once.

Game was -tough-.

It'd be cool to model Creville Asylum in 3D.

DoTA 2, yo. DoTA 2. D:

Came here to post this!

I might play Midkemia again just for that.

A nerd outfit in GTA V! There was a nerd in Sanadreas, he was awsome, as far as I remember. Maybe a T-Shirt with "Ironic Realms Enterainment" in a GTA style.

CTF for real.

But the original version

to sims I have like the whole series 

Someone should build MKO in the Oblivion creation kit.

No one said Minecraft yet?

 

In fairness, if you wanted to see an IRE location in Minecraft you could build it yourself.

Sounds like a project :)

I just started doing that recently...Time for me to work at it harder!

post a youtube video :)

Ooh yes, Minecraft ftw.

+1

Sounds  cool.

I used soul calibre's custom character creation to make my Aetolian character into a toon in the game. It was quite fun to fight my RL friends as Moirean!

This is cool. I am a great fan of the SC series.

cool!

Since we would probably have to wait as long for this as for the original game...

Ha!

^

+1

A Minecraft Sar-Sargoth (MKO) was already built by someone :P

I think seeing Skyrim or Fable or some such with some MKO recognizable content would be awesome. Like a new patch with Krondor or Crydee, or the Valheru Blade as a weapon in the game

Fable or Oblivion would be pretty cool, with MKO. Oh yeah.

 

Hello Kitty Dreamland

But I had really rather see warcraft's cool stuff come to us rather than see ironrealm's cool stuff go to them.

Well, except for the tattoo system. Orcs are ugly enough...

Elderscrolls and Fable-type games, for sure.

I think it'd be neat if there were nods to the IRE games, rather than perhaps direct visual representation. An IRE tabletop or something like that would be really fun I think!

I really don't play vid games for obvious reasons.  so not sure what I could add to this but, it would be cool to see avatars (graphical pictures) in vid games of ir content.  especialy lusternias

Some of the IRE crafting things would be cool to see

Final fantasy VII

<3 <3 <3 <3

Little Big Planet!

... no.

maybe?

Every videogame ever made, and ever to be made. You can FUS ROH DAH at a rampaging Infernal, then switch games and let Pac-man be chased by some chaos beasties. It's also possibly the only thing that could redeem Duke Nukem' Forever. Aliens? Forget aliens. DRAGONS!

Ooh what about no yalls taken all the ideas

Mario brothers.  I play that constantly when I can and not on Achaea.  I'd love to see Mario get some sort of skill like the occultist's Enervate ability.  Super Mario, literally

Replace the fire flower with a magi staff?

Like Elder Scrolls or Neverwinter Nights

Throw a few things on the wow server, see how fast our population starts to get newbs playing again.

 

I didn't realize there were other games than this one.

Then we would have the IRE gods as pantheon choices, specialty units and soldiers, and stuff. Send a golden dragon to rampage, recruit sirens to seduce the enemies men, send in the simply awesome priests we get in Midkemia, get greater path mages, get a Valheru (god power ability I suspect), and such. Would take a lot of balancing on their part though, and programming in general.

Age of Mythology with Occultist pit

Kethuru is breaking free, we must repeair the seals. It's...Age of Ascension?

A desktop theme for Windows 7 please. And Oblivion. And Chess. And the Colonists of Catan. And Tarot.

I think Skyrim would be an excellent choice.

finally, a devkit

Years ago, you deleted my comment asking for help on using the Morrowind engine to make Mhaldor and island. I eventually scrapped my feeble attempt in frustration.

 

Now you want to KNOW?

 

*sigh*

 

Fine. Morrowind is what I've got to work with because even though I HAVE Oblivion, it's not nice to me, and I'm waiting for the price to go down on Skyrim before I buy it.

I'm waiting for it to drop too.

hm

could be alot of fun, would love to see final fantasy there, as thats what I usually play when I'm not on achaea!

of them

quick, someone do this.

I look forward most to see the depictions of places like Tenwat, Creville, and Clockwork they just scream creapy detail

Meh, I like PC gaming best

Uh huh!

Haven't played much of Skyrim, but from what I've seen... I wouldn't mind seeing IRE dungeons built with that devkit.

Halo custom edition. Hrm...the memories.

I just realized the char on the right in the pic is Sarapis, lol.

:)

:)

I'd download Achaea themed maps for sure.

Asteroids!

 

Where's my Street Fighter x Achaea?

Instead of IRE themed stuff. Make an IRE game of its own. Just not furry heaven again.

Ok

I'm ok with it actually

seems reasonable

Yes

rather make an IRE game

IRE-themed TRON.

oh yeah

 

Skyrim hands down

Once Diablo III comes out I'd love to see a MKO mod for it.  I really enjoyed the ones people made for Diablo II.

Does Diablo III allow any modding?

I actually wouldn't mind seeing more art from IRE's artists. I like their style, especially whoever did the Lusternia race pictures.

Obviously.

:P

Because it's open source and a lot of fun to build levels/models.

Skyrim

New DLC for the Assassin's Creed franchise:  The Naga Strike Back.

Done, and done

Make it so!

blah

Hmm

Dragon Age :D

Nuff said

Hmm

All of them

I'm not sure how IRE content elsewhere would benefit anyone, except as some free advertising, perhaps

impossible to narrow down to one. so a short list? umm... final fantasy (just about any of em.) skyrim actually would be cool. GTA saints row, assasins creed, soul caliber, god of war, etc etc, my list keeps going somethin like that. lol

...sounds like an awesome idea.

 

Any Bioware game would make a cool vessel for an IRE theme. Perhaps a Jade Empire add-on or something!

None

Skyrim

So for all my wanting to think of something more original, I have to say that for me the best choice would be Skyrim. Imagine a lush, three dimensional Serenwilde or Cyrene. It'd be nuts. Other than that, an RTS could be cool with the different cities as factions.

A bit old, but Overlord would have been nice

 

3D versions of Achaea areas would be cool. What about Prin? Prin is cool.

What about a 3D version of Arcadia?

Duke Nukem.

the real question is which games shouldn't have IRE themed dlc.

All

of them

I would love to see the maps of just about any of the cities in this style. The skyline would be pretty cool. They have a hookblade, why not a jakari? Heck we even have Templars, though the templars are closer to assassins ideals, I think. Hallifax is Abstergo for sure.

LoL

League of Legends :D

Useful to contribute

I know it's an older game but since I am playing it at the moment, I would have to give my vote to Dragon Age

 

Any

and all!

hello kitty world, adventures of shallah

Minecraft. Build your own world.

Super Mario, or whatever its reincarnation is now. Yoshi should have a collar!

ToP woulda been great for Starcraft.

I agree, Skyrim
