Could an anthology game work, where multiple different developers come together to create small stories for a collected work under some uniting umbrella?
Sure, why not? I even feel like something similar already happened.
>>683794817It's only kino if you make them be interconnected somehow. Otherwise it's artbait.
Brilliant idea.
Haunted ps1 collection did it. It really should have a throughline narrative between all the games though. A personal favorite in films is Tales from the Hood where the gangbanger niggers rob the funeral parlor director and he tells them stories while they try to find the safe. It's got a good twist.
>>683795016I like the idea of 5 different developers each told to make an hour-long game within the Mass Effect universe for instance. Could do something like>CSEC officers investigating strange crimes on the Citadel>Cerberus soldiers raiding a Turian base for something valuable >Salarian STG forces sneaking through an area to rescue someone>human base near the Terminus systems has to hold out for help until N7 soldiers show up>Krogans fighting against the Rachni in the rachni wars
>>683794817Isn't Live a Live kinda like this?
>>683795121>52 bad gameYou know it's true
>>683795998Make the PC in one game a major antagonist in the other. Play around with non linear plot. Etc etc.
>>683794817*Steals your idea*No, will never happen.
>>683796327I suppose if you string it together tightly enough you move from something like The Animatrix to something closer to Pulp Fiction. Still a worthwhile idea really.
