Post 5 AKA The Rolling Golem and the Gathered Care.

It's been busyyyyyy.

From last time I've updated we've basically established our core concept and first draft of the final script! Within the writing meetings we all bounced ideas off one another until we came out with something we found interesting as a cinematic and a game.
This is why it's handy to have so many gamers' involved, we've had experience watching game trailers as well as actually laying a game so that enables us to be more critical about the games representation. Speaking of games, all this talk about them gives me the urge to sit down with a shiny new RPG and waste my life, which happens to be one of my favourite things.

Playing games should provide the audience (if that's the right term) with a new experience, while still maintaining classical features and mechanics from past games. By this I mean having a brand new world & character, fighting with crazy new weapons, even having a critically important conversation with your buddy; these can be exciting and new, even if the formula has been done again and again.

In a sense it's just a new style of narrative, with more of an audience participation. In this regard it's a very unique experience as it allows the player to act as they wish, it's unlikely the action will play it in a strictly scripted nature. Though I do love the thought of a gritty war movie being interrupted by having the protagonist pop a squat on a vanquished enemy and begin tea-bagging, whilst shouting "Noob".
Saving Private Ryan would have been a much different film, but it also may have made it much, much better.

"Omg, you f***ing campers"

Now I don't want to say too much about the actual script or story at this stage, as I don't know what's apt to change in the coming pre-production phase, but what I do know is there is a particular feature that gets me excited: the Bone Cult.

My body is ready.
