Just an interesting idea for a game I had.
« on: March 09, 2018, 01:27:59 »
What if there was a multiplayer or MMO game,
of any genre, that taught the players a minimalistic, easy to learn language for communication through foreign language barriers?
The game would emphasize teamwork-
You could have Japanese, russian and American players who only know one language effectively communicating and strategizing.

Thoughts?

Not a bad idea, some people won't bother learning the new way of communicating though.. But it's a good idea if it's only for people that speak different languages that want some simple way of communication.

Well, it'd be the same as in Evolve:
The players don't work together,
thus defeating the entire point of the game.
Not to mention doing themselves in.
Although if players happen to speak the same language, good on them.

     Sounds like it'd make more sense for there to be a background program that translates the input of one foreign player's language into the appropriate output of another's - effectively allowing each player to 'speak' the other player's language(s)...to a greater or lesser degree.

That could be an option, but I kinda like the idea of having to learn a new and simple way of communication to communicate with people that speak other languages.

     Supposedly "Esperanto" has already set out to do that; if you were clever about it, I guess you could use it as a part of your marketing campaign: "First All-Inclusive MMORPG To Utilize Esperanto For Cross-Communication"
