I’ve thought about this a few times, mostly while playing RDR2. A new take on Oregon trail could work. It’s an RPG. It’s a puzzle. There could be a combat element, you could choose what your specialty is among the camp, it could be a hunting game, a survival game. How is this not a remake we’ve already gotten?
Right? They could do so much with it. Hunt and craft while on the trail, when you get to town you can trade and sell, you can run into problems in town, run into problems on the trail so there’s some combat, gather supplies throughout. They could make beautiful cut scenes of the actual travel, make it cinema-level scenes a la RDR2, make a great band of travelers a la RDR2, you could become a scoundrel a la RDR2…basically make RDR2 again but oregon trail.
