GURPS: Darkspore RPG thoughts
Just had a little brainstorming session I thought I'd
share. I've been looking over at the upcoming Darkspore videogame, an Action RPG & now I'm wondering if anyone has thought about turning Spore into a pen & paper RPG. Here's a video of a trailer (think mass effect/diablo combo): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZcqGjJ7ZT0 There are some interesting challenges to turning it into a GURPS game. I suppose you could build your Hero using the creature tools & translate the cost of the parts used into GURPS advantages/disadvantages or skills & you have an image of your creature that you can put into your character sheet. Despite what some people may think about the silliness of the spore creatures when it originally came out, the tools can produce some master works, all it takes is a casual glance at the sporepedia to see what can be accomplished. Then after that, it's just a matter of figuring out a setting to put it all in, perhaps Darkspore, or your own settings and having the sporepedia as the largest monster manual to harness (something like 155 million creations). |

Re: GURPS: Darkspore RPG thoughts
I think it's an even better idea now that Dark Spore can't even be legally played anymore
