I mean maybe "summon" isn't the right word but its kind of crazy to me there are so few, if any games where the aesthetic is like "captain of the guard" or "merc commander" and your deal is calling in support from ostensibly human or otherwise intelligent guys. I think it has a unique vibe to it I like more than the other options. Anything that does have something like this is typically built entirely around it, like Mount and Blade. Are there any you know of and like?

How would you summon more during battle? Summons are expected to die, then you summon more. You can't keep shouting commands and jusy having new whole humans appear out of nowhere.

Drop pods, parachutes, portals, helicopters, teleportation, carried there by eagles, drill-tipped capsules emerging from underground, etc

Skyrim had a shout to call heroes of sovngarde for aid. There's also the ability to summon Lucien Lachance's shade. And I suppose it would be trivial to create a mod for summoning mercs, if you wanted to.

that's boring. play literally any RTS lol you're basically just summoning troops. give me skeletons and zombies n shit

you cant be a singular cool guy in those

>>3998926
I think it'd be

I am not saying the other options are bad. I don't like the idea of summoning guys because they are mundane, but because the aesthetics of summoning hordes of individuals to pave the way for you with their corpses when they ostensibly are fathers and sons and what have you hits different than infinite skeletons or random fauna.

RPG I think has a child same are rpg 1 or whatever and don’t judge me but the main character of this season in this game, has another child in the exact same camp. Is he going to save them, I busted my ass getting to these levels and now I’m stuck ! RPGs child is months apart from rpg2. I don’t understand the plot or the story or the ew ew ew . It’s in your hands now. This season isn’t going to be close to the first one but there’s definitely shit missing. Fill it in for me will ya

The support or whatever to show the next level would be nice girls

>>3998918
Usually it's from another plane, not from another continent. Else you summon the enemy in front of you. AFAIK there are adventures where you get summoned.

>whole humans appear out of nowhere.
Out of vagene, heh.

>>
>>3999080
he was attacked by US flag?

So imagine the game when you transport demonculabas with you and new warriors pop out from them ever now and then or on command

This is what Captain does in LotRO, although you're just limited to heralds.
