Game has the same kind of quests. Fetch herbs but you just haphazardly mow over most of them. Save a farm from bandits except you’re just blasting them. Kill quest to take out some liches tower but you just blow it up instead of raiding it.

All the npcs treat you like you’re not a tank and are baffled by the way you complete their quests. Maybe get really absurd by completing some kind of mount upgrade where you’re just a tank on top of some huge horse and it doesn’t really make you any more mobile than before.

Ok this genuinely sounds like a fantastic idea, you should definitely try to do something like this. Maybe not a full game, feels like the kind of thing best made to last an hour or less.

Yeah I think it would work well as like an indie game idea. I’m only barely experienced in programming, much less game design so anyone reading this is welcome to the idea

This could be made in RPGMaker with relative ease, if you don’t want to put too much into it. You can even release a commercial version if you stick within the guidelines and make all the resources not contained in the base engine yourself.

Yeah I feel like it could be hard centered on making fun of classical rpg tropes in a 2d form. Still loving the idea of this 3d highly destructible environment.

I mean, I’m not going to make this at all. I have a couple of book writing projects that are basically all of my creative impulses

Came to me sober but I did laugh to idea enough after coming to it that I had to share. I’m glad people here are digging it. Someone with the skills needs to run with it

Yes, like an Isekai. Except you’re a tank. You’re just a tank, that’s your whole body.

Actually new idea: you get like swords and armor and stuff but it just gets attached to your tank haphazardly. Maybe even continuously, like there’s no limit to the helmets/armor/swords that you can keep slapping on your tank but they never really make any difference besides making you look more and more absurd until you reach the endgame where you’re just absolutely covered in weapons and armor.

You reach the evil dark lord at the end and hes the only one who even recognizes that you’re a tank covered in an absurd amount of gear and is just frightened and baffled

They’re not literally tank-shaped, but there’s a species of elephant people in Mass Effect who are super stocky and just carry artillery on their shoulders.

This sounds like a Magicka expansion

I’d play it

I did always like playing the gun wizard whose magic staff was a gun.
