Hi everybody!
Probably this idea is not new, but is a good one and I\'ll try to be constructive. This goes for the DEVS spetialy.
My idea is very simple: I think that you (developers) can save a lot of work by opening some web pages for stuff related with the game. With this I mean that there could be a lot of people who wants, for example, a npc having their voices; you could create some kind of contest giving some dialogs and receiving a lot of sound files with people voices playing those roles.
That just an example, but you can do this with music, textures, architectures, maps, books, maybe cultural files like poems or popular song, or what your imagination sais. Of course, you must put some rules, and explain people what you want: \"this npc must be an old dwarf\", \"the music for this dungeon must be sweet and have some surprising moments to give fear to players\", \"the architecture of this city must be like the one seen on but try not to just copy it\", etc, etc.
You (devs) must see this just as a big data base where you have a lot of stuff to choose. If you don\'t want something don\'t take it, if you need the map for a city and you don\'t want to do by yourselves take one from there, if you heard some melody perfect for some dungeon just take it, etc, etc. This is just to save time, people do great work making mods for other games, why not just take it from the beginning.
I hope this will be usefull for you devs (specially after reading this all, sorry, I talk too much)
