Well of course that's obvious.

I don't know why anyone would ever want a school sim outside of maybe managing one ala sim hospital

I keep thinking about harry potter with persona mechanics. It wouldn't be my favorite game or anything but it woukd be a huge success. Set it in a new wizarding school with a mostly new cast of characters (some cameos allowed). Probably set it before Voldemort and all that just so you can really have a fresh story. Making house selectable is a possibility but I would probably not do that since it would make things much harder on the devs and not doing it gives you more room to work with for sequels. really all it needs is social links, a lengthy plot staking place over the course of the year, social/educational stats, and some combat and it would print money.

If I can't skip school to fuck around in town spraying graffiti and selling weed to 12 year olds, then your game is gay.

I'd be fine with a video game version of Sextra Credit

If the game is in high school most likely it will attract a younger audience. With this in mind I would want the game to be very deliberate in its message. First, an experience like persona would be good where it has some kind of supernatural or extra thing to pull you into the story. You don’t have to do the high school life but it will make life extremely difficult. It wouldn’t at all old your hands or make you run into new students except for 1 or 2 and they wouldn’t do much. If you want to level skills or get allies you have to force yourself to mingle and get out there. If the player doesn’t victory would be impossible and if they didn’t have many allies when the game ends it will end with some small quote that should ring in the players mind being that this tragedy could have been averted with help from others. Now let’s go back to what I said about a younger audience. Most people who would be playing a video game like this in high school would not be fitting in exactly and might be out of place, I mean they play vidya. The point of this would be to get across to them what they need to do in high school or college to find other people and be satisfied with themselves. Fuck, even real life. If you don’t try to get out there you won’t find anything, and I want the people who play this to end up going out after it.

ill be honest a lot of this is from bitterness of what I did in HS and Uni so I just don’t want future young to suffer my mistakes. If you’re a underage fag reading this take it to heart

I honestly think there could be a lot of potential to a school shooter game where the main focus is actually to be a satire about the horrible culture (among both the teachers and the students) that schools breed. The goal being to deliver the message "is it any surprise to anyone why school shootings happen?".

Especially since school shooter games are already easy controversy. You're pretty much guaranteed that some media outlets will give the game free publicity which could help spread the game's message. The real challenge would be making a game like that without being too heavy handed about it.

>you're a special needs child

>game gives you random objectives through-out the days pre-determined routine

>examples being if you go to the toilet, the game randomly tells you to steal the wheelchair outside the disability stall

>different player classes are disabilities

>easy mode is pretending to be retarded, medium is light autism, ultimate difficulty is Stephen Hawking

>the games tutorial consists of you following basic instructions to get off the short bus, and you get bonus points for leaving correctly

>>15437641

i unironically think this would be genuinely fun

>>15437396

So, you're going to make a school shooter sim where the bulk of gameplay is in the build up to the shooting? It could be interesting. If I was in charge it would be something like the following.

>game starts x days before the big event.

>spend your daytime at school

>case the place looking for points of interest and making a plan The layout or npc schedules would be randomized giving you something different to plan around each run

>plant traps/explosives

>have to use stealth to avoid patrolling teachers or bullies

>getting caught by teachers puts you in detention where you lose evening time

>getting caught by bullies inflicts wounds that hinder your performance on the big day.

>spend evenings preparing gear

>try to break into your parents safe to get a gun

>build up enough money to buy explosives and guns through illegal dealers or proxy

>can try to rob those vendors

>lots of different options for how you go into the actual day.

>ability to call in bomb threats/pull the fire alarm to get everyone out in the open at the cost of early law enforcement arrival.

>ability to bomb places across town to keep police busy.

>ability to poison the school lunches.

>ability to use fire/poison gas to smoke people out of hiding can die to either if you're retarded.

>ability to use jammers to delay police arrival.

>school attendants have unique roles, follow a schedule, and move in different ways through the day.

>security guards need to be dealt with early or they can fuck up your day.

>killing the broadcast room/principle early results in mass confusion and delayed reaction.

>assassinating a teacher the night before leaves that class with a substitute who makes worse calls.

>getting injured is unforgiving.

>no regen, and you'll start bleeding out faster and performing worse with every injury you sustain.

>can try to fight the cops once they get there, but it's pretty much guaranteed death

>they are very aggressive, heavily armed, and work together.

>success/failure is reliant on a score system.

>every kill counts, but some count more than others.

>all the bullies and teachers you had to avoid during the first 3 days count for a lot of extra points.

>getting kill combos by mowing down crowds with automatic weapons or using explosives also adds a bonus.

>police kills count for less. They weren't the intended target.

>at the end your score gets uploaded, and you can see how close you got to the top

>also coop mode if you can find someone willing to play it with you.

>>15437651

Another thing I was thinking about was the possibility of you end up being a bully which in turn could result in some NPC snapping and doing the shooting.

I'd prefer a multiplayer school shooter sim.

Artificial Academy 2

>>15437761

It'd be a bit awkward to show up late on the day you were going to shoot the place up only to realize some other kid beat you to it.

>>15437906

Well, in this case you would probably be busy bullying people to try shooting others and you end up causing someone else to do the massacre, so good job?

school sucked why pretend to go back to it.

Already had my ideal school sim, I don't suspect anything will come close.

>>15437396

>wanting to relive school years

Nigger if I hated that those years in hreal life why the fuck would I simulate it? You sound like that faggot from the stress free mods thread.

>>15437931

This.

>>15437948

Look at this loser, what's the matter cuck? Were you that weird kid that always said stupid shit and nobody wanted to be around? Kill yourself.

>>15437880

Artificial Academy 2 with Artificial Girl 3's gameplay.

Koikatu doesn't count.

Bully, but with a more realistically sized school and town with more shit to do and places to explore

>>15437959

>Were you that weird kid that always said stupid shit and nobody wanted to be around?

Yep, people also thought I was autistic.

Let me guess, you were one of those fags who was liked enough that you had a group of friends to to connect with and mingle with most other kids but you weren't too popular enough to anything expected of you, right nigger?

>>15437948

>>15437931

To kill all those who pissed you off.

>>15437971

And shooting bullies please.

>>15437990

>To kill all those who pissed you off.

Those kids didn't deserve death, I just didn't get along with them

Mix Bully with Postal 2.

>>15438034

Well, some of us weren't that lucky to just not get along.

>>15438098

Spread awareness about homeschooling instead. It'll get you more results than waiting for video game developers to create a cathartic but completely brainless, unrealistic murder simulator like every other murder simulator.

Ideal? Trying to fuck under age girls, sell drugs, do school sports, fuck off teachers. Final mission is a school shooter with your gf.

What happened to that school shooter sim? a vaporware?

>>15438276

Which one? IIRC the government funded one was shut down but the crazy slav one just got renamed to Standoff.

>>15437516

FUCK YOU That's a genius idea. I never thought of the possibilities. But, would also include the cities and mountain sides since a minority of the fights actually happen in the schools? Fuck, just get the guys that made Yakuza to make it and have everything separated as open world zones. Or, maybe Platinum with a full open world setting

Always loved ikki tousen. The wu arc was objectively better than the shu arc too.

>>15437590

There might be some value in a game that plays like a minimalist RPG (obligatory pixelshit) but that stealthily and slowly pushes every possible path you can take to a single conclusion: the "Bad Ending" where your character ends up shooting up the school.

Stay alone? Get depressed and shoot.

Make friends? Get bullied and shoot.

Concentrate on schoolwork? Get too stressed and shoot.

Concentrate on socializing? Fail your classes and shoot.

Just a giant branching tree of hundreds of paths, thousands of options, that all lead to the same place by the end.

>>15437651

Wow, you're really damaged, dude. You should get some help. I'm going to report this to the FBI just to be safe, okay?

Persona 3's social stuff with more in depth schooling and hanging out.

Sandy Hook if it was real

>>15437396

I want Bully: Hogwarts Edition but with even more fucked shit.

A land where theres one big city and a few villages nearby sees a few different schools showing up around it for gifted individuals.

These are schools for humans and creatures that are born with some special capacity and they need training to harness it, being that may even come from other dimensions to study there and help along.

In the same school you'd find lessons for Alchemy, Spellcasting, Robotics, Religion, etc. You attend the ones that are relevant to your character build and improve your skills, alongside the rest of the students there.

Different schools have different rules and maybe even different disciplines. The Castle School is roughly neutral in it's regards and lets students to do their own thing while the Swamp School is for unscrepulous students and won't interfere when they mess with each other.

The gameplay is partly about attending schools, studying and making friends to improve your skills and build up your connections\party\reputation.

The other part is to be sent on errands. You could just be helping the local towns with an infestation, get a lost artifact in the local ruins, or even visit another dimension for higher class students. Most of the time you'd be soft-competing with menbers of your own school and hard-competing with the other schools as well.

There'd also be the oportunity to just fuck around and visit the nearby villages or city to buy supplies and spend time with your friends as well.

The game would have a soft time limit in the form of studying for 5 years to earn a degree in whatever you chose. However, after that is done, you get to buy a house nearby and can now teach at that school and/or keep performing those errands you did before but at an higher level of difficulty with your friends.

>>15437396

Why would you simulate something that literally everyone can experience themselves?

>>15437516

replace ikkitousen with yakuza and you have my ideal school sim

>school sims

are you gay or something?

Yeah, go for it. In which era would it be based though? In the mid-20th century teachers used to hit students, while currently, we have students who do hit teachers. I don't know exactly when did "bullying against the nerds" start, but I've heard it was already a thing in the 70's. That's why in the early 80's you already had movies like "The Revenge of the Nerds" echoing this reality.

>>15445791

>There will never be another good life sim game

>No other company is clever enouth to make a sims clone

Life is suffering.

>>15445895

If I said Schoo Shooting sim it would have made people go nuts with the shooting and forget about the whole "I snapped" setup.

>>15445956

Student or not shit like this is why i'd carry as a teacher.

>>15445956

Bullying is a social defense mechanism to weed out attention whoring faggots (read: leftists) and beat and humiliate them until they either kill themselves or realize they're not special.

The myth that nerds were singled out for bullying is merely a Jewish invention. Just replace "nerd" with "kike" in any of those movies and the message it's trying to send becomes obvious, right down to the kike wooing the white girl.

>>15437795

>>15437651

I had an idea for multiplayer.

>There will be 24/16/12/8 combating players (1 shooter v 7 cops or 3 shooters v 9 cops, 6 shooters v 10 cops).

>Shooters are given heavy firepower, whereas cops are armed with pistols and tasers

>Spectators will be either watching a news feed or play as one of the students.

>Manifesto phase (planning stage)- You select your equipment and weapons. Pick targets.

>Starting phase- Find a way to enter school, place items/traps around

Alarm phase- Begins whenever a student detects the armed shooter or if the shooter uses their weapon, spawns the cop faction at a 1-2min distance

>Cops get a bonus if they manage to save at least one target.

>If the shooter kills all of the targets, they get a bonus.

>>15446162

In saner times niggers got lynched for getting uppity.

>>15446100

Hey sam.

>>15437396

Im not trying to shit on your idea, but that sounds extremely boring. I get playing simulators that let you fuck around with heavy mashinery, but why simulate something that you already did IRL ?

>>15446207

Bitchniggers never moved on. There's a reason they talk in fucking high school language, ie: calling people Chad or Stacy.

>>15446207

>but why simulate something that you already did IRL ?

Not all of us managed to kill the bullies at school back in the day.

>>15446235

Bitchnigger confirmed.

>>15446249

>I was a bitch and got treated like a bitch

Bullying working as intended.

>>15446255

Unlike you, I had to fight back and eventually I overcame that hurdle, but when you're like much smaller and younger than your bullies, it's a massive hurdle that took years to overcome, nobody would help, and even those that tried, couldn't to anything, the system is fucked. And you're part of the problem, again.

>>15446268

I don't even go on /r9k/, I moved on, but the education system is fucked beyond belief, and way too many people are apathetic about it. And often they are part of the problem

>>15446278

>but the education system is fucked beyond belief

What has that to do with bullying?

Hopefully you guys teach your kids not to get bullied.

>>15446286

Guess what, having children all locked up in one room for hours on end while some teacher is dribbling on and on about some shit nobody cares that won't help you in real life, well, often that ends with much frustration and stress that makes children often lash out against one another. And it's even worse when you're the subject of repeated bullying, unless you change your school, you're forced to co-exist with people that have no desire but to torment you daily, and for what? What good is a high school diploma nowadays? What good is 90% of what you learned? Education is important, but this is not education.

>>15446293

Oh, okay, you're a nigger that went to nigger school.

>>15446317

I went to a public school and you’re wrong about the state of education today being the cause of bullying

>>15437396

Like Persona but just edgy.

It's set in the Satanic Panic in the 90s and the whole thing is you can only sacrifice a cat to humans to summon a Persona which you do in the spare time.

While you earn more SP and AP per day that goes by when you sacrificing animals so you can go dungeon crawling, and there is also a time limit on how long the Persona will be there.

The rest is just Persona's friend simulator.

>>15447104

Agreed. Western schools in general are absolutely terrible in terms of both teaching efficiency and mental health of both teachers and students. But sadly you would need dictator-tier control over a country to un-fuck it because (((someone))) will always throw a wrench into any plans to improve the situation.

All in all, many problems of society have their roots in the educational system, and the way things look that sadly isn't going to change anytime soon because of the overall state of western governments.

>>15446100

Bullying is what retards do out of frustration because they know the kids they're picking on will be millionaires someday, while they will go on to make a name for themselves as the hometown's best burger-flipper.

It's a coded action that means "I hate you because you're better than I am at [x]".

Augmented reality one with a real gun, but the students are rendered as zombies. 50% of them are purely generated by the game, the other 50% are rendered over the top of real students.

if you are too weak, step aside and let someone else do what is necessary.

Fully immersive, portable, VR augmented reality with real-time rendering of zombie overlays on students, real guns with lots of ammunition.

Bonus round - if you kill over 80 students, real and simulated combined, you will unlock the Cop-Killer super special bonus round.

DOUBLE POINTS for each cop dropped, with 50 points added to cop value with each 5 minutes that passes after the first one is taken out.

Note: police will have an augmented overlay of an alien, woo scary!

>>15447273

Rockstar didn't even have the balls to keep a confederate flag in their game. School shooter games are pretty much seen as off-limits to any developer with anything remotely resembling a budget, not even edge-lord games like Postal or Hatred let you kill kids.

>>15447428

Id almost be tempted to make one, but it seems like a ton of work for a joke.

Although it would be neat for gaining programming experience and the salt could be fun.

Being an asshole on the internet is not the same as getting nearly raped by some mentally unstable kid in elementary school.

>>15447508

You hit the nail on the head, that normal, same people will be the ones bullied as long as these cults are promoted him every form of media and by the government themselves.

Bullying is one thing, peer regulation is another. Bullies were/are faggot low-lives or groups of low lives who pick on someone younger or less powerful than them because they have low self esteem and are probably grandad raped every weekend.

Peer regulation is telling a faggy acting furry to stop being weird, because he's being weird and is headed down a bad path.

Peer regulation if done in a low intensity but society-wide way is how society prevents degenerates from continuining their mental illnesses. Habits which are completely,contrary to nature and a healthy life can be reduced or eliminated.

The useful peer regulation is what has been made illegal in the current western world.

Bullying hasn't been dealt with at all, and you are right that it will be normal children who will be bullied, since there are no repercussions for that, whereas targeting a furry with a buttplug on a necklace will be a 'hate crime'.

Children who contracted gender dysphoria in the study were highly likely to have peer groups with a culture of directing animosity towards people who are white, straight, and male. “They are constantly putting down straight, white people for being privileged, dumb and boring,” one study participant wrote. Another wrote: “In general, cis-gendered people are considered evil and unsupportive, regardless of their actual views on the topic. To be heterosexual, comfortable with the gender you were assigned at birth, and non-minority places you in the ‘most evil’ of categories with this group of friends.”

>The myth that nerds were singled out for bullying is merely a Jewish invention.

Steve Jobs was bullied at school in his early teens (that would be around late 60's/early 70's). Chris Langan, the dude with the highest IQ in the world, also was bullied in school (60's). I don't think it's the Jews the ones who invented this trope.
