What do you guys think is the best amount of total party members? I want to do a four man group, you think four is enough? Or should I shoot for 6?

Also any good resources for game story writing?

>>543103603
Most games just adapt things from movies, books or cartoons that the devs liked for their stories. Maybe try playing some story-based games and see what they did right.

Depends on the type of story.

1 character = conan the barbarian story.
2 characters = red and blue oni band, Xena the warrior.
3 characters = Freudrian trio or the 3 ladies (crone, mother/seductress, daughter), red blue oni with spooks.
4 characters = Hero, lancer, tank, support.
5 characters = Power ranger band.
6 characters = Power ranger + sixth ranger.
7 characters = Seven samurais band.
12 + characters = Characters are now groups but they follow the same dynamic.

3-4 is enough if this is normal coop, and I hope you don't do MMO, in that case you would need to bump it up to 5~9

Watch Brandon Sandersons lectures on youtube even if you think he's a shit writer.

Should I take all my game mechanics I've made for my main game and put them into a little side project with a runtime of like 5 minutes? (Y/Y)

Use case for this thread?
