Generation Ideas

  I never saw it coming when Shakespeare was implemented, so why not others? :awesome:
  
  
  If they did it right, the Titanic would be awesome.
  
  
  But if that was too modern; I would love Phantom of the Opera :blood:
  
  
  
  What ideas do you guys think would work?

  Titanic would be difficult seeing that we don't have much use of the sea but I welcome anything that makes use of the sea.
  
  Also I approve of Phantom of the Opera, that was a fun play.
  
  Any new incorporated work would have to tie into Morrighan and the current plot of things in mabi. They did a good job with Shakespeare with the ties with Morrighan, a bit of G11 and what not.
  
  Hm, as for which work I would like to see implemented. Maybe something like the Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckaberry Fin.

  Japanese mythology pl0x. Okami. Then again, I'd love to have a generation based on a novel. I still say the Alchemy of Stone because of its relevance to alchemy.

  More Elf and Giant storyline, please.
  
  And end that freaking war already!

  I would like Mabi to go back to the original storyline.
  
  [SPOILER="Spoiler"]I mean the last time we saw hint of the original story was once in g8 with Ruairi and once in g10 with Nao(Mari).[/SPOILER]
  
  It would be cool for the game to go back to it's roots and continue with the Celtic lore this game is based of. Meh it's probably just me.

  I think everything mentioned so far should be shoved together for a massive SUPA GENERATION. yup.

  C2 and C3 are very much tied into C1. C4 is merely a filler chapter. C5 should provide a return to the central storyline when Ruari returns from the journey he set out on. And quite frankly, all the dragon-related events in G7-G8 are directly linked to the final events of G3. G9-G12 are actually very key in understanding the origins of the gods/goddesses as per the game's story and shedding some light on quite a few of them, echoing the revelations we learned about at the end of C1, which brings us into C5 with a different outlook.
  
  I also think there are far more cons to a strict retelling of the actual lore than a story loosely (heavy emphasis on loosely) based off of concepts from it, but that's just me. That being said, I'm an enthusiast of all things mythological, but there's a lot to be said for the approach this game is taking to the elements from which it draws (for instance--not knowing what happens next).

  Well technically everything up until now IS the original storyline, they are just expanding it. :U
  It's like back in the day; it was originally European history until they moved toward Canada, America, yada yada. So it expanded and became World History.

  I would also like that while making new ones
  
  Ideas could also be what the original storyline will go into next; I would like the Giant and Elf "war" to end and let them be able to marry :awesome:
  
  
  Maybe they would form an alliance with humans and Fomors to do against another force; in my opinion the Fomors aren't always evil, so to speak

  I mean telling the actual story isn't so good, due to the story being limited, thus making the game limited. What I meant about "getting back to the original story," is telling about the gods/goddesses, the 3 warriors, elves vs giants, dragons, etc. instead of, as we saw in g13, killing a grim reaper.

  I don't really see much of c4, as of now, being part of the story, aside from Avon being the "prison of the gods."

  I can actually see this. Like Morrighan screwing us over(like she has with many of her "people"), so we side with Cichol instead.
