Super Smash Chronicles (I really need a girl)

Speed · 12-24-2008, 08:59 AM

NOTE: NOT INTENDED TO BE BUNDLED WITH THE NEXT SSB, OR TO REPLACE SSE, IT'S JUST AN IDEA FOR A STAND ALONE SIDE GAME GOD ****ING DAMN!

Alright, before the inevitable SSB4, I think we could do with a side series.

I was thinking a Strategy-RPG, Somewhat a mix of Fire Emblem and Super Mario RPG.

It would be a turn based strategy game like Fire Emblem, you deploy whatever number of characters you move them around the map and battle the enemies but the battles that occur when two units meet on the map would be standard RPG form, only with Action Commands and what-not, Every character would have their own stat sheets, and everyone has individual weapons and specials.
Also, like FE, Death is Permanent. (Although character's with story purpose just retreat)

The story would involve some dick wad scientist using a magic machine to draw people with strong quintessence (Fire Emblem again, maybe I play that game to much) into earth from other dimensions, causing most of the SSB cast to be teleported to earth, The first half of the story (15 Maps) involves three Government Operatives helping the SSB cast defeat the scientist prick and return home, the second part (10-12 Maps) is discovering that while they we're gone, the long defeated Subspace Army has taken over the many worlds for lack of heroes. The third and Final Part (20+ Maps) revolve around journeying to subspace and defeating their new leader, SAKURAI!!!!!!!

The roster would be a deep 50+ Characters (The original amount Brawl was gunna have lawl)
New Characters join almost every chapter, some are recruitable NPCs, Some join through Story Events, some are recruitable Enemies. (Like Fire emblem Douchebags XD)

The Battle System

When two units meet on the map screen, a battle initiates.

The battle system is standard RPG Form, You can attack with a Standard or Special moves, Standard damage is Strength/Magic Stat+Weapon Power-Target Defense=Damage

Special Moves bypass Stats, and deal set damage, Set damage is often low but can be combo-ed, and often has Status Effects attached.

The Speed would work something like Sonic Chronicles, Let's say Link attacks a Primid.

If Link has greater Speed then the Primid, he get's to make his Move first.

If the Link has Double the Speed of the Primid, he get's to take two moves before the Primid takes one.

If Link has Triple the Primid's Speed, then he get's three moves.

If he has Four Times the Primid's Speed, then he get's four moves, and so on and so forth.

Weapons are available for purchase in shops, located on most maps, Weapons come in many types and are often character specific.

Shops also sell Healing Items, Stat Boosters and Skills.

Stats

Health: How many hit before this unit Dies/Retreats.
Max Health: The Maximum amount of Health a unit can have.
Smash: Basically, MP or PP, When you use a special mose your Smash goes down.
Max Smash: The Maximum amount of Smash Power one unit can have.
Strength: Effects the battle formula. (Physical Units only)
Magic: Effects the battle formula. (Magic users only)
Speed: Decides how many moves you get in your round.
Defense: Effects the battle formula. (Physical Units only)
Resistance: Effects the battle formula. (Magic users only
Dexterity: The higher this stat, the more powerful weapons you can wield.
Weapon Rank: Determines what amount of weapons the unit can uses.

So, anyone like my ideas?

Anyone got a better one?

Pretty good, but no good classic characters should be taken out. Why isn't Jigglypuff, Ganondorf, Peach, and Luigi playable? For that matter, why would you choose Cloud? You can still keep it Nintendo appearences only.(I can deal with Nintendo anime appearences, though)

There's 4 other games for Final Fantasy playable characters from the original six games, not to mention Crystal Chronicles. I guess I'm saying that Cloud is a foolish addition. I like the other ideas, though.

Metal Man · 12-25-2008, 04:58 PM

Mmmm... yes... this seems a bit familiar?

Oh, right.

1. Ganon is a main villain in the Story, I thought Jiggs should be removed in Brawl <__< >__>, Peach is a Story character, Luigi is a summon in battle.

2. Well I was adding three third parties and I wanted one from Square, I suppose Black Mage may have been a better choice but Cloud was the first to come to mind.

I never played/was associated with SSQ other then what I heard at SSS, so if it's at all similar I GREATLY apologize. (italics'd for Sarcasm)

SephirothKirby · 12-25-2008, 09:11 PM

Cloud sucks.

Jigglypuff owns wtf

also your topic broke vgf

Is this going to be an actual game or is it just an idea?

SephirothKirby · 12-25-2008, 09:54 PM

I would totally be willing to host a SSBB RP if enough people would be interested.

As long as MM's game isn't still running, I would feel bad for running it at the same time.

Are you still doing toy battling? Cause I miss it.

Anyhow, I'd also go for a super smash rpg since I'm a roleplayaholic.

Completely original idea that I had way to much time to flesh out. (drinking Red Bull at 1 AM gives you alotta time ony our hands.)

I REALLY HATE POKEMON! · 12-26-2008, 12:39 AM

I really like your core idea, but I don't like the story or chosen characters.

I have a similar PKMN themed idea and will post it later, you got my creative juices flowing...I never liked the way that sounds. o_o

It has been running since 2002 and hasn't stopped.

Indeed, we just had a session this Christmas. Santa included!

(SSQ 1 ended and was followed up by SSQ^Squared. This due to the fact people's attempts to make a sequel before I did all died.)

Also, you must note that if you ran it at the same time, it'd probably draw from VGF people, not mine. There's already another SSB RP which drew off of mine and was made without my consent; it isn't uniquely my idea, I just do it. 'Sides, Wolfman founded it. I'm a crazy guy who continues it.

heh · 12-26-2008, 03:16 PM

agreeing w/ thread title

Luigiman7 · 12-26-2008, 03:46 PM

Thats alot of words. And 3rd party characters.

Don't feed the fanboys, children.

SephirothKirby · 12-26-2008, 05:09 PM

^^ Well, I wasn't sure if the majority of the people who played it were from VGF (Dragoshi is the only one I know of), and if they were, I would just feel it would be in bad taste. I don't like using someone else's idea while the idea is still active. Mine would be fairly different, but with both being an RPG, some aspects have to remain the same.

Either way, I will probably make it. I've been thinking about it a lot lately and I'm interested in seeing what I can do with it.

You might die of old age waiting on me, anyway, considering it has been going on for as long as it has.

We have a very tight knit community. I have no worry about other ideas taking my people. Generally my place has a history of outliving everything else instead...

1-up Salesman · 12-26-2008, 08:46 PM

Sounds pretty cool. Why don't we run that on our forum, Speed?

What part of secret forum do you not understand?

1-up Salesman · 12-27-2008, 10:43 AM

The idea is cool, it just needs another story. Why not some other characters besides Cloud from Final Fantasy that are playable? I'm not against Cloud or anything, but how about Terra, or..... Kefka as an enemy?

**X-3** · 12-27-2008, 11:10 AM

or maybe Garland.

Why is Treeco playable? That just seems to jump out at me, for some reason.
