Re: No Harry Potter MUDs There is a fanfiction series which takes place in the Harry Potter universe, only, the character is different, plus I think it's set in the united states.I think that's the only way something like this would even work.Of course, you're always going to get nit

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs Oh I don't know, some works adapt better than others. If for example you actually have! a story about a huge world with monster fights, well there's no need to alter too much. Indeed, while I couldn't get into the game, I got the idea discworld mud worked precisely

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs @dark, I agree with you.I tried the Harry Potter browser games and yeah, I couldn't get into them.I'd not play an HP mud, but instead would read fan fiction and chek out videos. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/604634/#p604634 -- Audiogames-reflector

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs That's not really a problem unique to HP though, it's the same if you want to adapt an existing thing into a game really, and some works are just to expansive and massive to be adapted without straying IMO too far from the source material, at which point it's

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs Oh the whiners would be inevitable no matter what you did. Adapting a set of books which are at rock bottom school mysteries set in an isolated location in Modern day Britain into any sort of game is a bit of a nuts  exercise anyway, one reason I wasn't entirely

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs @JaseKay, Yeah, I am aware that skill checks etc do take a lot of back end coding. It is possible, when you look at something like flexible survival, which is scarily unique given it's x rated premise, but you'd need to be pretty dedicated to do it, and as you said

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs @Nocturnus:Oh don't get me started on players having opinions and being pushy. Having opinions is fine, like oh I think we should be able to do A B and C because here's why, here's how it'd help the game..VersusOh let us play as a centaur cause it'd be fun

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs yeah, feeling 15 like a lot.  I think coding something like an HP oriented mud would be a lot like playing russian Roulette.  Should you be able to play as a centaur?  Well, maybe you should because they're part of the Poterverse, but how much do they really have

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs @Dark: Pottermore was...eh, I dunno.To me the issues I said in @6 and Dark said in @12 are the big ones.Yes, it sounds simple on paper to say okay, stir a potion clockwise, but that isn't just one line of code. That's several, printing messages, the back end, skill

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs There are a couple of Harry potter text based browser games, though much as I tried, I just couldn't get into Hogwarts  live, partly because Harry potter hack n slash just plane didn't work, and mostly because it was such a lazy adaptation of Logd, with so much

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs There are a bunch of issues.1. copyright2. The world would be small. There are not a lot of hills and forests and beaches and islands3. You could really throw all spells and abilities in one or two classes. The rest, like the houses could be roleplayed mostly, say

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs I can think of ways you could make HP work as an actual mud with mechanics, when you look at some of the none hack n slash, but still activity based muds like Flexible survival, cosmic rage or Avalon the legend lives, by using combinations of find and reaction

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs Oh I'm not trying to put anyone off of this. I'm just saying what I know from having made/run MU* in the past. I'd argue the MUSH/MUX approach is the easiest one rather than go the MUD route honestly URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/604358/#p604358

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs I wasn't necessarily talking hack and slash muds, but just harry potter muds/mushes/moos/muxes in general.I'd like to see a game where you can become one with the universe, get an education at hogwarts, maybe play a bit of quidditch (which would be hella difficult

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs I'll elaborate:If you have anHP MUD, okay, fine, but how would you adapt the books/movies into a text based game, how would you capture the feeling of it. How would you make it enjoyable for people?That's why I said it's a lot easier, but...it's more MUSH/MUX

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs I don't think HP works well because of the world honestly. If it's a more RP oriented MUSH type thing, then diffrent story realy, it to me fits in much, much better with the MUSH/MUX crowd because slower paced, more emphasis on RP, honestly. I don't fel like HP

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs

Re: No Harry Potter MUDs I'm surprised at this too. As popular as the books and movies are, I would have expected a lot of Muds with that theme.I'm also a little shocked at the Lord of the Rings, because the few Muds I know in that theme are renting Muds. I am surprised there aren't more
