overlord 3 ideas

[tnbrothers]

So I'm a big fan of the series and have been waiting for 3 to come out. In the meantime, I thought about what i and some other people might like and one thing was the controls. Instead of sweeping the horde, it could be more like dragon age 3 where you can pause and order the minions to form up or attack specific targets or use special abilities that you get when you level up the hives, for example you could have the browns form a wall, use an abilty to make them better tanks, and have the reds focuson archers or mages.
Another thing I was thinking about was lore on the minions. I have an idea where each tribe of minion represents both an element and a sin. Browns would be earth and their sin would be greed because whenever they are always taking stuff whether it's gold or gear. Reds would obviously be fire and their sin is wrath because it's usually paired with fire plus they are the ranged troops. Greens would be nature and their sin is envy because they are the most theif-like and envy is colored green. Blues would obviously be water and their sin is lust because both lust and water are described as sensual things. As the last 3 sins, i'll wait and see what you guys think of my ideas so far. If you have ideas about what they are like and their roles, feel free to post.

Yeah

1st --> Overlord (perfect)
2nd --> Overlord 2 (Slightly shorter game play and less choice of decision making)
3rd ---> Overlord dark legend (Noticeably shorter game play, extremely linear game play)
4th ---> Fellowship of evil (A heated mess of game mechanics and time)
5th ---> Minions (Your generic game-boy bootleg) -no offfense

Minions never happened (if we say it enough it be true one day)

Love overlord hath proper return

2 things I want to see.

One is a game about the black baron, REALLY see the start of it all.

And 2 is a game where you play as the 2nd overlord, if you think about it he influenced the title more than any other.

I mean, he is the creator( I assume) of the tower that the 3rd(overlord) works from AND houses the tower heart that caused the magic catastrophe.

Also, for the love of god let some enemies respawn after you conquer an area. Don't know about legends and fellowship and that, but that was THE biggest complaint for overlord 2(once you conquer an area all you have to face is harmless gnomes).

My biggest concern would be if whenever they just recycle and reuse the same locations from dark legends to establish a game story-line for the Black Baron. Hard to know since we have little idea of wherever or not the Black baron travelled beyond the lands Greenvale and had become known in other parts of of the world such as Spree or Heavens peak or even Nordberg (assuming it was yet built) The game difference between the Black baron's conquering and Overlord 2 (not counting fellowship), is about 150-300ish years between, so just how much detail and structures could such a game of 'Black baron' contain, to keep game together.

Also to add I believe there was another Overlord before the Black baron, why is this well the Black baron only used the waypoints from Gromgard, but Gnarl mentions in Overlord 2 that "The minions dug their way through the Netherworld to serve the very first Overlord". So we can kinda assume that the Netherwold was a forgotten tower that was rules by an Overlord previous to the black Baron, but was much later used by the fourth Overlord (Overlord 2) A little bit of history which prolong the game's history just a little bit more. I also believe that the first minion described is actually Gnarl, but there is little evidence to support this except for his age.

my main worry the SJW/NPC Angery mobs that form over fiction stuff with zero reserch

they shut down a game for make a joke about them i fear what will happen to overlord a game about be a B.A guy with a army of Dum minions who die blindly for him with 1 (overlord 2 be 3) mistresses going get attack by them that's my major fear (i know odd them winning and stop it from be happening low but still to high for my likeing)

To be honest i think we deserve a true successor to overlord 2, the style of gameplay is still very unique and they should stick with it, maybe add some new minion types ? like dark minions and light minions

if they do i hope for blue mounts because i feel bad they got like no love or improvements

[tnbrothers]

I was thinking of 3 new minion types. One would be an ice tank that chills enemies when they are near, another that drains wizards mana and attack magical enemies that you normally couldn't hit from afar with lightning, and another that would be true spellcasters that use slow but powerful aoe spells with darkness.

Ice minion good idea
Drain wizards (blues)
No minions should hath own magic like that because it overlord hath all magic

Hard to say.

Maybe the black baron discovered the minions?

I mean I would assume he was the one who left the gauntlet the first overlord used(since it was specifically instructed to leave it to him on his 16th birthday), maybe a relic he unlocked?

Also

Well you do return to the old tower in overlord 2.

They can use the same places but they don't have to be the same design.

I mean other than name what is there to offer? forest, snowy hills, desert. Both overlord games have already used such places.

is old tower in DLC because in overlord 2 you in a tower that was build after Rise hell DLC of overlord 1

[Twinkletoes]

No you return to the tower after it has been destroyed(the place with the magic goop you need blues to clear).

Only difference is that your outside of it instead of inside, which was kinda my point. Its the same place, just from a different angle.
