We see a common genre on games..called..adventure. But most of these, are not truly adventure. Adventure is an experience in which we are wowed by the locations that we come across. That is the true definition of the adventure genre.
ROBLOX is a place of games, but not many give us this experience. They've given us the ability to create large places, it's time to harness this.
An adventure can be a large world for user to discover, or even a fixed path that brings you to new and exciting places. The player must feel like they were taken on: An Adventure.
I want to see more places of this genre and enjoy exploring them. I think a lot of people are with me on that.
One of the easiest ways to get fame, is to create an amazing adventure. Something the user will remember even after playing.
Pokemon Destinies - is a fixed adventure. You're forced to follow one path, but you get to enjoy the locations and be wowed by them. (I can say this about my own place, because 50% of the maps were built by Precipice and drager980)
Sword Art Online, floor 2 and 3 were built by Precipice. The first time you go there, you are amazed at what you see. It's like being brought to an entirely new place.
An example of a free roam adventure would be Solar Conquest. This game is one of the many games that got me into scripting. The planets are always neat to explore. It's the same for Skyrim and the other Elder Scrolls games. You get wowed by the locations you come across and the things you discover.
I did not make Rukiryo Games to rule a fan club (as much as it may seem). I made it for people that like my games, to discuss and collaborate their games, someone else's game, or even my games. But having members isn't what makes it unique. What makes it unique is the amount of great builders it has. That can create amazing experienced using nothing more than some basic shapes.
So I'd like nothing more than to see great adventures being created. I'm tired of all of the obbies, combat games, and whatnot. Pure adventure is what makes a place unique.
I hope you see that, and strive to create it. |

Yea..those games are amazing. I'll give it a shot ruk! |
|

Ill make a medieval world to explore. Many cities and areas to discover. Dont know how well itll turn out but ill give it my best |
|
|
Ummmm I still don't know how to even build or script so I might need some help on that before I try things like this. |
|
|
The only way to learn is to try. |

I might make one but- I don't want to get too carried away from my other projects. |

I agree ruk, and thats why I am really into pokemon games, because of the adventure you are about to experience. That's the reason why I am so stoked for pokemon X & Y, because I can not wait to experience the adventure on that game. Sounds stupid for just a game, but whatever. Adventure has always been my favorite, whether it was a game, a movie or a book. |

I really like the Idea ruk but Pkmn fans are looking up to pkmn destinies updates

I'd have to agree with you. When you go on steam, most games have a plot-line, amazing new places to explore, and still can add nice gameplay. Though some are meant for action (Like TF2), I enjoy the ones with the nice places to explore. I'm making a game, called Space Heist (No, it will not be on ROBLOX, but I might have a group where I post updates), and my first idea for the game was a multi-player shooting game in space. (I wasn't thinking of a heist) After a bit of thinking, most people would rather play a single-player game with a plot-line, nice scenes, and a place to explore. So, i came up with Space Heist. This idea should seriously come to ROBLOX. I don't like that most games don't have an adventure aspect (Though some do), so we should really change this. |

Lightning, try something easier first. Don's go straight into some giant project |
|
|
And ruk please make some script or model available for those whose want to make a pokemon game |

The thing is, a lot of people would just get bored with those games.
A lot of people are more interested in swordfighting or whatever is on the frontpage right now because It's more interesting to them, because they give you an exact thing to do. Exploring and discovering just doesn't entertain people.
It's why I've had to completely change the game I'm currently working on to suit the people more. It was originally going to be a large island full of things to explore and there'd be weekly updates and events. Now I have to try and make it into a swordfighting place because It's the only way I can keep my original design and have people visit it still.
I do agree with you OP though, adventure games can be quite magical and fantastic, but people just aren't interested in them which is a shame. Back in 2009, you'd actually find a lot of decent 'adventure' games but now.. every game just seems the same. |

Creating an adventure requires no scripting. While scripting enhances it, it doesn't define it. |

@iSystemERROR That's why ROBLOX has introduced Top Grossing. They agree that most front pagers are garbage aswell. If you look in Top Grossing (Press Games, and select Top Grossing on the left) you'll see that those games are better than "Relevance". Some are still complete garbage such as Kohl's Admin House, but it's getting better. |

|
But Ruk some people just don't want to build.Some people start and get bored with their projects. |
|
|
Soon the Thumbs Up and Down will be integrated into the Front Page system |

@isystemerror That's one of the reasons I'm not making my game on ROBLOX. No one would play it, they don't admire these types of games. |

@Rukiryo Maybe we could make a group to raise awareness of this problem. |
|
|
No need. People that really enjoy adventure, will love it.
It's not a matter of people not liking it on ROBLOX, because that's completely a lie. Pokemon Destinies proves that. |
|
|
I'd totally be up for going with my original idea if I knew people would support it. It's great that I've found this thread, 'cause it shows that there are people who feel the same way I do about the games on Roblox. <3
You guys are all great, really. |
