I think I aimed too high. I really don't know If I can make a game. I get too distracted. I have trouble making one silly little model on blender, keep thinking of two different story lines other than PWars, can't decide on doing an FPS or RTS, have no game making experience, and countless other things. I've asked people at home and reached a 50/50, so I'm asking here to find out the final decision. Should or should I not go through with making Parasite Wars a game? |

I'd make it a game, but I'd put it off for a while, until you get things sorted out and improve your level of skill to necessary standards. On the other two things, I would probably make it an RTS. As far as I know those would be easier to make, code, plan etc. On the other hand, FPS's tend to be more popular. So maybe start with the RTS, and, if it's a success, do an FPS.. As for the storylines, us lot here at GI can decide on that. It might be spoilers, but hey, most of us here are working on the project already. Hope that's been useful. |

I agree with saidi, i already kinda talked to you about it but doing a source mod FPS would probably be easier with all the support pages and such. |

Yeah. At the very least I'm gonna work with blender for a while, get a feel for that. From what I've come to understand RTS are harder to make than FPS. I didn't get what you meant by the storyline things though. I have the Parasite Wars/Plague storyline. That's the main one. Then there is Ant Warriors, and a Genome Inc storyline. But if you're wondering I am working on the book. It keeps changing each time, I rewrite it a lot, but I've come to a start I like. Plus I also write a lot of short things to be included later. |

I guess you should. No reason to spend all that time making something that's all going to be wasted, right? As far as the FPS Vs. RTS thing goes, maybe you can have some levels be FPS, & others be RTS. |

No, I wouldn't do that. Far too complicated. I'd go for one or the other. FPS's are probably more popular, but RTS's are a lot easier to make. I think. |
