Hello once again, my fellow escapists. I was thinking about something recently...
RPGs are pretty great, but they are usually a single player experience, not that there is anything wrong with that, but do you think these storytelling epics that we call RPGs could ever expand and perhaps, some would even incorporate multi-player? It seems to me like RPGs are missing out in an area that could be great for them.
I remember in Tales of Symphonia, they actually had the option to let other people control your teammates instead of the AI. They actually did it pretty well. (Though I must say fighting Abyssion with two people that had never played before that day was HECTIC.)
So what do you think? Would you ever like to save the world and level up at the same time with friends at your side? Explore all of Tamriel or the apocalyptic wasteland as a team? Unravel a fantastic tapestry of a story as a duo, perhaps?
Do you think that they could effectively do this? No? Why or why not? (Please explain instead of only voting, lol, poll votes don't bump threads or let me know why you said something, xD...)
