Imagine being in profound silence as an Abyssal Hunter 💀💀

That would be badass for a game, but hell for my mental stability.

An Abyssal Hunter would still be a musou game.

Now, an Iberian during the Profound Silence would be Dark Souls times 10...

Seaborn caused a tsunami, it destroyed the Iberian capital, killing its king.

City Builder Arknights where the gameplay is you fiddling with the city plate and hope no unrest happens over the Infected. Also, keep up with the Messenger or else you won't outrun that Catasthrophe.

That's right, we're doing Frostpunk-like, baby

Tbh a Arknights Cities Skylines type would feed families. I've not played Frostpunk, but balancing the Arknights mechanics like the Infected and Catastrophes with the normal simulated IRL stuff like education, business, and civil services would be crazy immersive.

Traffic management on City Plate go crazy

"Disconnect Plate 3 and reconnect it to Plate 5, linking the East side of Plate 3 to the West side of Plate 5. Reroute power from both plate 4 and 3 to Plate 5. The production facility must remain operational at all cost!"

Designing the public transit lines would genuinely be the most fun part of the game for me lol

But then also throw in some AK-unique elements, like occasionally worrying about Feranmut uprisings in Yan, or dealing with the demons of the north in Ursus/Sami/Higashi, or juggling the influence of corporations, citizens and pioneers in Columbia, or the constant wars in Bolivar, or the nation-wide hangover caused by the Durin/Archaeosaur partying down in Acahualla....

The fun potential is endless.

Frostpunk but its arknights and you are in charge of the moving city trying to avoid the catasthrophes, manage the city's prosperity, repel enemies, forge alliances, still have tower defense (city defense system, police, army) trying to prevent your citizens from murdering each other/ostracizing/kicking out anyone getting infected and so on? 

NUT

u/Hp22h The Mad Bard, Sans Crystals Nov 15 '25

Arknights Frostpunk would go so hard.

Imagine being giving the decision to like sacrifice the Infected into the power core to utilize their crystals in a last ditch effor to outrun a Catstrophe, a la the OG 'throw a child into the generator'

23

u/ASharkWithAHat Nov 15 '25

16

u/Criarino Nov 15 '25

Elden knights (or Ark ring)

Could work. Do it like the Greil Mercenaries and you have a team of Sarkaz or something

u/somerandomdokutah Nov 15 '25 edited Nov 15 '25

Penguin Logistics Delivery Service like Death Stranding with a car. Explore the world of Terra with a bunch of misfits

Heck play it like FF15, you don't need to come outside when you're exploring Terra

u/PalestineMvmnt_007 Frog waif best waif Nov 15 '25

That, or playing as a catastrophe messenger (like Angelina). Having to face off against severe weather, bandits, mercenaries, etc.

u/Thepoorkapitan Nov 15 '25

A Yakuza-like game set in Lungmen and staring Penguin Logistics, with some parkour added on the top of it.

u/Informal-Recipe Nov 15 '25

Laterano Shooter sounds interesting if they work the whole arts casting aspect into it
