My adhd means I end up collecting ideas for games and books, but I can never manage to have the motivation for long enough to make them real.

I'm also considering making a community for this sort of thing, just not sure how used it will be

I want a couch co-op multiplayer JRPG.

The Tales series got so close with the combat system, where each player gets to control one character in the party, but they fumbled it by tying everything to player 1 outside of battle.

Instead, I'd want something akin to how Larian games handle it. Every character gets free reign to initiate their own cutscenes and story progression.

Basically, I want a version of BG3 with separate battle screens as realtime combat arenas and a dumb melodramatic anime plot.
