are we really still making "why there no vidya with niche character that nobody knows that would never ever turn a profit" threads in 2025?

Wouldn't work as vidya. Consider ourselves fortunate that the books are so goddamn excellent.

he was fairly influential, but for a generation or three and i don't mean the retarded *oomer nomenclature but like generation of a family behind the current one
it's like expecting modern fantasy to be copying vance — kinda quaint

You already have all the tools you need for an Elric build in Elden Ring.

Fucking retard, I dont wanna play Elric lite in Elden Ring, I want to play Elric in Elric's game.

I feel like it could've worked as a mid-late 00s hack and slash, as was the style at the time. Now I just don't see it working, too niche, and if it were to happen, it'll likely miss the atmosphere and involve some gay shit.

My dude. Whit haired guy with a sword isn't Moorcock but Tolkien. Moorock took Turin and made him retarded. Anyone that cries about Elric should just shut up.

Because the books aren't actually good and chuds and nerds need to accept this.

Turin and Elric are similar only superficially, both being pale wearing a dragon's helm and wielding a black sword, where Elric is different is that he has far more similarities to a shounen protagonist doing all sorts of crazy wacky shit and winning each time while Turin stays more in line with his inspiration, Kullervo, it's no wonder people preferred Moorecock's character
>white haired guy with sword
Turin has black hair

It's definitely more like penny book papercover slop when compared to Tolkein, but it's still a fun read

They're definitely not the most well-written books, but there's some cool ideas and moments in them

Good.
He should be limited to TTRPG. No vidya would give him justice. You'd just get Witcher 4-tier UE5 asset flip.

Both are elf related, cursed, and fuck their sister. Time to admit that Moorcock stole from the Master.

Play Total War Warhammer it has Elirc but better as one of the legendary lords.
