Now, Realm of the Mad God SORT OF does this during World End events (when Oryx is defeated)... so I guess it's hypothetically possible --- "Salt cures Everything!"

I don't think battle royale as a concept is compatible with PvE. --- And with that...pow! I'm gone! <cite>funkyfritter posted [p:929272225] in Could a Pv...

I literally had very similar ideas yesterday - mainly from playing Battle Royale on COD Mobile - but I was just like... it would be awesome to play a BR with RPG elements. <cite>Soup_or_Science posted [p:929272343] in Could a Pv...

I've been weirdly psychic when it comes to game ideas... usually as soon as I post it, something like it comes out in a couple days. Obviously said game was probably in development for years, so it's just kinda funny --- "Salt cures Everything!"

Examples would be Destiny 2 and the dark zone in the Division has never been fun unless your with friends. --- Only The Family <cite>Sg_otf posted [p:929273339] in Could a Pv...

skullbone 10/26/19 7:12:18 PM #7:	I could see it working if there were some factor that allowed you to "win" a final round like fastest clear time. A good player needs to be able to beat a bad player in a BR, even if their gear is worse. A lot of RPGs just turn into number games so it's going to be hard to beat someone in a DPS race if their gear is better. So I guess the question is how do you make skill a factor without making the RPG elements feel pointless? --- skull <cite>skullbone posted [p:929278290] in Could a Pv...
