If the last book you read was made into an adventure game, would it be a fun game?

It is.

It'd be interesting to see an attempt if nothing else.

Since the last book I read was Fellowship of the Ring, pretty sure its been done.

I don't have a clue, a plot doesn't translate into game mechanics

Would be very cool actually. I wonder about how the general landscape of Urth looks sometimes.

Could be a pretty cool setting.The 1600's/1700's are ignored a lot in games.

Could be really good

>Echopraxia by Peter Watts
Not really. Neat setting, but the plot and tone wouldn't fit an adventure game. Could be converted into a cool RTS or something maybe.

I'm still sad about that.

Taliban Shuffle.
Definitely. Adventure would be the perfect genre for it

Mistborn, Alloy of Law

Maybe someday we'll get the game and/or tv series we deserve
or at least a couple movies for the first book, that would rock
>>
>>343360769
I doubt it. The books rely too much on narration and inner monologues of its characters. It would always be lacking.

>Voltaire's Candide
I picture a classic Lucasfilm comedy Point and Click adventure, and suddenly I'm sad that no such game exists. It'd be perfect.

I dont think the Intelligent Investor would make for a very good game.

Not even a little bit. Literally the worst idea.

What are some good fantasy and scifi series to read? Honestly asking since I go to the store and see thousands of books, but no idea where to start. And I don't want to just read the 100 most popular books on some website list.

Are the ringworld and wheel of fire books worth starting with?

i know

Although the movie changed at least half the book, i think the inner thought/dialogue it did was perfect. i havent seen the miniseries so i have no idea how that is done but i hope that if there was to be another attempt at the series theyd work it out like that.

>Being no One by Metzinger
it will be horrible to play and i have no idea how to translate it into game.

or

>Blade of Black Steel

grimdark gay quipvengers: the game. I would throw half my money at kickstarter just to see the threads on /v/ but only if they actually keep all the gayness.

Um no the gor novels ahould not be adapted into anything they are terrible cancer and im glad they never caught on outside of their niche

The next biggest horror game
>>
>God Gave Us This Country

It would have a depressing ending if the main character is Native American, more so if they're part of Tecumseh's Indian Confederacy.
