>The last video game you played is suddenly turned into a TV series.

How good does it turn out to be?
What is it like?
Is it faithful to the source material?
How many seasons does it get?

I guess it'd have to be an episodic series with multiple flashback episodes and probably several seasons giving you explanation onto how things wound up like this. Sorta like the Avatar series, but better.

Unless this is one of those Saturday Morning cartoon threads. How the hell could you make Metal Gear a Saturday morning cartoon?

Fallout 4

An action drama about a man in a post apocalyptic world where he has to balance family and helping out settlements.

I don't like it when normies touch my things.

It'd end up being a game of thrones clone.

in an ideal world, it'd be 2D animated, with all the scenery true to its eyvind-earle-inspired roots, they'd all speak icelandic with subs, and there would be a lot of really deep, chilling scenes when the dredge show up to really instill the terror in you

>World of Warcraft

If this had been made in the 90s, we would almost certainly have gotten a cartoon.

It'd probably be a fantasy version of GI JOE, only neither side is shown to be absolutely good or absolutely evil. Probably one season dedicated to the plot of each expansion.

Series finale would be Legion.

I can see it as a Saturday morning cartoon, the highlight would definitely be its cast.
It's a multiplayer shooter, so they can go hogwild with the story, maybe dip into the characters' backstory.
3-4 seasons with a one-hour tv movie finale.

Snake sneaks around and saves Meryl from Ocelot every week, all of their shots miss and Raiden is now the snarky comic relief who makes robot puns related to him being a cyborg. All the FROG soldiers are robots now, and the ones that aren't the heroes are only allowed to grapple and flip them in combat. Snake also chews on toothpicks now because SMOKERS ARE JOKERS KIDS, and there is a PSA at the end of every episode. Any more ideas?

I'd watch it just to see if they go off the rails with the historical fiction.
A lot of incest, murder, and holy wars.
It may not be faithful to history or probability, but it would be faithful to the bullshit that happens in the game such as the Germanic faith reforming and the Aztecs invading.
It'll either be okay for two-three seasons or absolutely amazing for one.

>Shadowrun Returns

It's a Netflix anthology series.
Each series usually starts of with a revenge/find the killer plot, but then turns out not everything is not what it seems. Characters from the tabletop, videogames, and previous seasons pop in and out throughout the season.
It would loosely stick to the material, just enough to have Shadowrun fans and the rest are interested.
It gets how many season Netflix wants to pump in it.
>>
>World In Conflict

Some kind of Drama show mixed with lots of action for the big battles, supplemented with more solemn moments when the show focuses on moments that signify the 'Holy shit we really are being invaded' feel of the show, like cuts to abandoned schoolhouses with little touches like children's drawings, or a soldier taking cover behind an empty doghouse.

I can actually see that as an Adult Swim cartoon like Stroker and Hoop only slightly more serious.

They made a show out of it. It was awful.

The animation was terrible and they added an unnecessary love triangle, nerfed Alicia, and it just generally took itself way too seriously.

SWTOR was the last game I really played intensely other than CSGO and Overwatch

Every season would follow a different class, and there would be movie specials focusing on the expansion packs.

As long as Burch or his sister aren't involved in any way, shape or form it might turn out half decent.
Action-adventure spaghetti western with random drama to move the plot forward.
Can't see it deviating too much from the game's story.
2 or 3 seasons probably, each progressively worse than the last.

Sonic fans will never be pleased. The closest I've seen them pleased was during the Sat am Sonic cartoon, which I personally liked but then comics went full retard with keeping Penders at the helm.

THE CARNAGE, THE CAPACITY FOR VIOLENCE! Would probably end up on something like Stars or HBO due to excessive gore and violence. OR, they could just make the 90's DOOM comic and ham it up, while also throwing in a random line about the evils of toxic radiation for some reason.
>>
>>84092663
You know, it's wierd, nearly every video game show had to have a musical number. They were all bad except for some reason Donkey Kong. I have to say they were still corny, but they sounded so good. Not goofy movie good but good enough, on the DK story wise? That would kick so much ass. What if, and I am just spit balling, What if the entire show there was no talking? You just would have soundtracks. Very little dialogue even. Talking could be done by sqwaks, and maybe K.Rool.
>>
>>84092775
That's probably because the cast of the show could actually sing. DK's singing voice was SEX.

I knew I wasn't the only one who sees this as a pairing. They just fit in a disfunctional way that it's just cute.

Each encounter can be stretched out to a whole episode, ranging from battling space pirates to getting all of the oxygen sucked out of your lungs. Each season has a new crew as it gets wackier and wackier.

Fucking sweet is how it turns out.
The story is already like an anime, so not many changes are needed.
I'd imagine either 3 short seasons, or just one long one, with an special, for 'Another Day'.

Its turns out pretty cool deep sea and giant leviathan monsters on an alien world. Shoddy production values though due to being made by syfy. Stays close to the source material.

Didn't that game have two different endings based on what choice you made?

How would that part be translated to television?

read the end of the post anon. the ending choice would be left open, but the other story choices would probably be chosen based on what would make for better ratings
a netflix series would be best.

Take away the HUD and add a narrator. Run the first season up to freeing the last giant and if renewed, have a few shorts to handle sidequests. If it does REALLY well, spoiler at the last episode for prequel OoT.

Do you know how many people would probably murder for an OOT cartoon? If MM is made chances are OOT will have already been done.
