Cold Salmon and Hatred

Cosmic Sombrero

How did that Jason and the Argonauts came turn out? It looked pretty swank.

The Forest of Suicides would be the creepiest level ever.

NotASenator

Fantastic.

I would play it.

Dog

inferno 2: electric boogaloo

inferno 2: inferno harder

inferno 2: return of the inferno

wyrlss

6th Ring. Hell Yes! DING!


grats.

NotASenator

Wouldn't the sequel to Inferno just be Purgatorio?

Since it is part of a trilogy already?

august

For the record I'm still pissed at Brutus.

Sara Lynn

I dunno, I'm still pretty pissed at Brutus

guy was a dick

Centipede Damascus

A surprising literary turn for video games.

Next: a game based on Plato's Discourses.

Druhim

zot sucks, comic is funny

Also the most boring game of all time.

But maybe Paradiso would be worse.

You'd just walk around crying with joy the whole time.

Monkeyfeet

Why is it always Inferno? why is it never Paradise?

Dog

I'd play the butt out of a game based on the Illiad/Odyssey

NotASenator

The Comedy is such a Mary-Sue self-insertion story.

Look at me, hanging out with Virgil, getting the girl, going to heaven.

BusterK

Where's Quoth?

Futore

We shall twirl our mustaches and consider, in-depth, our own literary superiority.

I think there have been a few games loosely based on them
And they've been for the most part awful

TWENTY YEARS OF GAMEPLAY

Shankusu

maybe Virgil will be like the Fable 2 Dog

all "ARF ARF ARF PRESS UP TO EXPLAIN THE UNFORTUNATE AND IRONIC PUNISHMENT OF THIS CLASSIC HISTORICAL FIGURE"

And he's doing it to be with an author who Mary-Sue'd himself into the epics of Homer

The layers are endless.

Quoth

huff puff huff

i am here i am here

this game is a terrible idea

ok bye

BusterK

Well that was disappointing

Quoth

ok i will say more things

let me collect my thoughts on how each level would go in an ideal gaming world

Futore

But there is going to be chopping of literary elements!

And combos!

Quoth

level 1: Good Friday, 1300 AD, our beleaguered protagonist Dante finds himself lost in a forest and must escape from a lion, a leopard and a she-wolf and find his mentor Virgil, who will explain that it is the will of the Divine Architect (aka game designer) that Dante explore the depths of hell if he ever wants to get home again

NotASenator

Quoth, would you consider the Divine Comedy to be one of the greatest works of world literature?

NotASenator

As quoted from Wikipedia

Centipede Damascus

is Grendel in the forest

I bet Grendel is in the forest

The layers are endless.

The Aeneid was the most expansive fanfic ever.

An entire empire mary-sued in, and now its considered cannon!

Futore

Sounds like 3 kickass mini-bosses

Quoth

yes

you try writing 14000 lines of hendecasyllabic terza rima

but he definitely stole a bunch of stuff from Virgil, no doubt
