I'm not talking about My Little Farmville. Don't get me wrong, i played that game for hours on end and got farther than I would admit. However... I don't want to think of THAT as MLP's video game.
I was talking to myself about what exactly would go into a MLP game, and I came up with a couple ideas.
1: [You would make your own pony, or import a design.]
+-+-+ This would HAVE to be a feature. Customization is a huge plus for me in video games, and making your own OC in a video game would be flippin awesome to say the least.
2: [Gameplay would be a combination of Harvest Moon, and Animal Crossing]
+-+-+ As much as I'd love to have a RPG with ponies or a sandbox style game... it's a bit foolish to think that something like that will be a thing in the next few years. However a game that combines several aspects of HM and AC isn't that hard to imagine as a possibility. I think that when you start the game you get to pick a job, such as Animal care, Farming, Baking, ect ect. From there you would work with Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie ect, and other ponies in Ponyville. Working gives you bits, you can buy items and decorations for your home, its not hard to follow the string of logic. And as far as the HM aspect of the game, it would change from farming to whatever job you picked up.
3: [Graphics similar to the MLPFV game]
+-+-+ I don't care for the game itself, but MLPFV looked amazing. I think using the graphics of the game, or at least using graphics on par with the game would give it a clean, nice looking feel.
4: [Locations]
+-+-+ Obviously you would start in Ponyville. But I think that as you play the game, you could get jobs and housing in Canterlot, Applusa, Cloudsdale, Las Pegasus, Phillydelphia, and more! It would be great to see some of the places we've only seen glimpses of in episodes, or never seen at all. (Apologies for the bad spelling of the locations)
I have other things that could go into what the best MLP game would be like, but idk... what do ya'll think?
