I was hoping for 100 pages of Judge Giant. I'd buy that.
I definitely concur.

Quote from: Rusty on 31 August, 2018, 06:09:35 PMLooking at the aesthetic, I'd imagine that this is what 'Dredd' would have looked like had that film had a couple million more added to its budget. When the TV show finally does arrive, I expect it'll look very similar.

I feel like Wagner may have lost interest in Giant round about the same time Rico was introduced: to a certain extent, Rico supplanted him as Dredd's 'heir'.
Quote from: Frank on 15 August, 2018, 07:56:23 PMWagner's interest in Rico lasted about as long as his interest in Giant. If he was still writing Dredd, he'd have got bored of Beeny by now, too.
Quote from: Frank on 15 August, 2018, 07:56:23 PMAnd the non-Wagners are more interested in their own not-Dredds (Gerhart, Joyce, Ghost Girl) than tidying-up Wagner's loose ends, so Rico, Giant & Beeny will probably just fade quietly into the background until some future hack needs an emotional impact for their big story or decides to stamp their mark on the strip by setting fire to the furniture.

Quote from: GrudgeJohnDeed on 19 June, 2018, 06:28:06 PMSomeone brought it up before but The Witcher 3 had a miniscule marketing budget in comparison for example with a total budget including marketing of $80m+, and it's an extremely high quality, ambitious game by all accounts and sold well.
Quote from: GrudgeJohnDeed on 19 June, 2018, 06:28:06 PMYou can do it Sandman! I'll wear a big clock and be your hype man in the pitch meetings. YEAAA, OPEN WORLD DREDD, SUCKAH!! DAS RIGHT! XD I'll get my coat..

James C:QuoteI'd love to see a really good Dredd-world game but I don't think the big open-world thing is ever going to happen.
You:QuoteIt can definitely be done if the concept is good enough and you can gather the right people behind it.
So you'll forgive us if we thought that you were indeed talking about a giant, open-world Dredd game, since....y'know, that's what you said could definitely be done.
I've worked on a couple of dozen games, big and small, and i respectfully disagree with your take on what is and isn't possible in mainstream game production.

So it's both ambitious *and* makes compromises?
Sorry, that sounds like a woolly description.
Quote from: Steve Green on 17 June, 2018, 06:55:03 PM"You substantially reduce the expenses and find a publisher with enough capital and confidence in your concept."
If it was that straightforward, don't you think Rebellion would have done it?
Quote from: JOE SOAP on 16 June, 2018, 07:57:18 PMPossibly the absence of that level of capital.

GTA5 cost over $200 million.
Remember that, anytime you see another well-meaning "You could do an open-world Dredd game, just like GTA!" post.

It's not pessimism, it's realism.
I worked on a sandbox GTA clone for 18 months back in the stone-age before the publisher went belly-up and the project folded. It pretty much did for that office of the company.
As Gordon says, they are incredibly expensive because of the amount of content required, and subsequent testing compared to something that's more limited in area.

With Cyberpunk 2077 just around the corner, the best bet for a Dredd related game might be some kind of fan-made mod or overhaul.
