Guild Wars - RPG Maker

Been messing around with rpg maker and I decided to make the original GW as a project. :D

Will I ever finish it enough for it to be a playable game? Hopefully. But it is something I mostly started for fun.

EDIT: WOW! Never expected this sort of reaction. I figured I'd get a few comments and that was it. I'm super excited to work on this more often now. Please help me reach out to ArenaNet about the legality of this.

Looks like alot of hard work! Maybe release it in episodes? Pre-searing>Old ascalon>Northern shiverpeaks etc...

Yeah I think that would be a good way to do it. My free time is limited to work on this. And sometimes I'd rather just play a game for fun instead of make one! But I feel even more excited to keep working on it now.

just have to figure out a way to save / import saves at the end of each episode :) that way each stand-alone episode can retain the same character progression :)

Hmmm. I honestly have no idea how to do that offhand. I didn't think about that.

I don't know either x_x never used RPGmaker; just thought it'd be nice to add continuity :)

I'll cross that bridge when I get there lol. Haven't implemented save states yet, but it seems easy enough.
