I’ve always dreamt of putting my personal touch on franchises like Ace Combat, Need For Speed, and Halo, which have been near and dear to me since my younger days. It would be thrilling to direct and have a creative say in a new installment of any of those series. I’m curious to know what game series you would love to direct and what kind of unique spin or direction you’d want to explore with them?

I’d like to have a crack at Total War, taking fun elements from Warhammer and refining gameplay to create a dynamic early civilization theme. Also, maybe an Elder Scrolls game focused on Akaviri invasions with blended mechanics.
I’d like to get a chance with The Witcher, mainly for its fantastic universe. Mass Effect has so many narrative possibilities, and Final Fantasy for its RPG storytelling. These series just have so much lore and room for new storytelling.
SimCity 5000, Prototype 3, StarCraft 4. I’m just waiting for these to become a reality because they absolutely deserve it!
Prototype was indeed phenomenal. Reviving it would be awesome!
I’ve got a ton of ideas for Mass Effect or a Resident Evil game. If IP wasn’t a thing, I’d probably jump on those right away!
Vigilante 8, Fusion Frenzy, and Command & Conquer would be my picks. These dormant franchises have unique fan followings and potential for reinvention. They could be spectacular with today’s technology.
Valkyrie Profile, Parasite Eve, and Digimon World. Each of these deserve a fresh chapter with modern gaming capabilities and I’m keen to bring new life into them.
Dark Alice from American McGee, Dark Souls, and Silent Hill could use some fresh takes. There’s a lot of untapped potential in each of these universes for something impressive.
Intergalactic, Mass Effect, and Starfield are at the top of my list. I’ve always been fascinated with space exploration and those universes provide endless possibilities.
I’m on board as long as they don’t strip away the classic turn-based combat from Final Fantasy for this souls-like combat system!
