that would be pretty cool. the pick one of 4 things to say and get 4 planned out answers thing is getting a little old.

i think it would take a huge amount of work to get something resembling real conversation working though.

Not really. Building a base AI using something like AIML doesn't require too much effort.

Ya that'd be cool to see, I'd like to see it in RPGs (like Neverwinter Nights) that'd really make a huge difference in game play.

RPGs hack and slash:
I like games like Neverwinter Nights, Oblivon 4. I play them mostly like hack and slash games though, I'd like to see another Diabllo 2 come out. (Dungeon seigh tried but failed) I still play D2 because there is nothing better.

RTS:
Stop making them all 3D 2D is fine, I almost prefer starcraft over some of these newer 3D games.
Don't get me wrong 3D CAN work and should be in the game partly, but I find a game much more fun if I can play it rather then look at it. I'd rather more go into the game play then the graphics.

FPS:
I don't like FPS much, but from the ones I do play I much prefer acutally guns then tanks/planes. Concentrate on good game play rather then graphics also.

Browser based:
Umm no lag please (not talking about flash or those types, but acutally games that you change pages etc...)

@ <-- nethack makes diablo look like play school, get the SLASH'EM (Super Lots-of Added Stuff Hack, with Extended Magic ) modification if you want pretty pictures.

Sacred was a fairly good Diablo ripoff.

I really miss old adventure games - this brought some old memories back.

I'd like to see more games with a greater replayablity, not just once or twice though, but being able to go through 20 times and each time being at least 70% unique.
