Dramatic Crossroad Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Will KONAMI eventually run out of ideas?the've recycled quite a few names and themes, i swear there are like 10 different "kings of hell" and hella lot more "gods" and angels and such.

I think they haven't released a fully dedicated deck on food in general or dishes and cutlery and such (malicevorous almost count though). We have no appliance deck - such with dishwashers, stoves and toasters, furnish archetype with couches, tables, chairs and drawers(?), architecture archetype made of walls,floors,ceilings, arches etc, fashion deck with mannequins, fabrics and different sewing techniques, art-pieces that are not haunted monsters, chemistry-inspired science monsters (oxy-hydro-carboneddon barely count), "travel the world" monsters with "around the world"-themed field spells, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Well they made an archetype combining funking Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz, so I don't think they'll ever not have enough inspiration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramatic Crossroad Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 And that would be considered walking on a thin line of plagiarism and exploiting someone else's exceptionally successful franchise. Still waiting for them to make something inspired by Metal Gear Solid or Silent Hill (:P), like they did with the Castlevania vampire stuff (Tactical Espionage Unit was OK, but kinda spoofy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yui Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 We still need a good pure-Zombie archetype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas★Zero Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 We still need a good pure-Zombie archetype. In addition to Pirate archetype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techi☺ Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 A full archtype following different kinds of service workers, like police officers, fire fighters, ambulances, with contracted road workers, grouchy donut- token stacking Police Chief and Their boss card could be like, Mayor.

Roids are kind of like this but not really. Actually the more I think about it the more I feel like there must be at least a few cards that fit this description but cannot think what they are.

chairman ali Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Biggest mistake they did was to cancel silent hill and cause problems with Kojima. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nyx Avatar Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Biggest mistake they did was to cancel silent hill and cause problems with Kojima.Wait. That was going to be a thing? Another archetype that'd be good would be a reaper/shinigami archetype. However, what archetypes do you guys think Konami should make? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epicmemesbro Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Konami actually made a web poll on how people think each of their franchises were going. Kinda off they were doing that since they treat their employees badly and don't listen to their fan bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Well, we did have a member who wanted Konami to make a Silent Hill archetype a few days ago.That would probably work, provided sensitive parents in this country aren't going to blow stuff up because of their nature. They can also make stuff from their other franchises, like DDR (how that'll work out, IDK). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairman ali Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Wait. That was going to be a thing? Another archetype that'd be good would be a reaper/shinigami archetype. However, what archetypes do you guys think Konami should make? nah, just saying how stupid konami is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
