Talk about video game stuff.

And be talked back!

Amazing concept, I know.

Well there is a thread about them in the Other Games forum.

This being the Media & Inspiration forum, I'll mention that sometimes some computer games have seemed like they could be fun to run an RPG in. For me, the ones that have had that effect on me have been the Tigers on the Prowl series (realistic WW2 ground combat simulation, though it more inspired me to run a wargame than an RPG), and Bungie's Myth series (though what I did instead was mod Myth II to play more like GURPS combat. GURPS Myth is cool but I think they screwed up the power levels for the basic units, making brigands and warriors and Ghols 150-point characters where I'd tend to build them on more like 40-80 points). Also Illwinter's Dominions series could be a great RPG setting (or many settings, really), although the magic and monsters tend to spell doom for humans trying to survive long, though one can tweak things... A person could raid Dominions for all sorts of cool historically-inspired stuff and other coolness, which I like all the more because the stats for things make sense to me, fitting a TFT/GURPS-like range of attributes which directly determine what happens in combat, instead of a Level/Hitpoint/ArmorClass abstract toughness system. When I play Dominions (which I've done for years and years now), I usually focus on trying to keep human heroes alive.
