Harry Potter MMORPG?

[celestialobject]

I just want to ask all of you. How cool would be a Harry Potter MMORPG? I know, Bio-Hazard was working on developing one, but it got cancelled with no mentionable reason. (Wasn't it because Warner Bros didn't agree with that?) After I heard of this I just can't stop thinking 'bout it. Sure, it had to be done by the right people, but still, wouldn't it be just awesome? I would even pay for it monthly.. So, does anyone of you know if there will be a Harry Potter MMO one time?

You can make good games and bad games out of any license.

That's true for sure. But I heard they use the stuff they already developed to make a new game outta it. It's going to be based on Harry Potter and Co, but I didn't find any more Information about that..

I'd rather have a good simpsons MMO xD

[grounded in reality]

will it be an MMOFPS where you just blow up crap in the enemy's base like in planetside 2?

Nope. The Idea was a Roleplay Game. You would choose one of the 3 available Wizardry Schools, choose your House (Slytherin etc. But I think it would depend on the School you're visiting) You learn new Spells, level up etc. You could specialize yourself on different Types of magic, like brewing potions or morphing, whatever its called, etc etc. But As I Said, it should be made by the right People, just for balancing stuff etc. (Like, if there is PvP blowing up People with Avada Kedavra is kinda op, isn't it?)
I'd really LOVE to see that Game.

Magic in Harry Potter sucks against any firearms.

D: For Some People. I really enjoy using chilled magic in PvP rather then just shooting with weapons, because weapons are Real. Wands are not. Yet..

Not Really. I got 7 Horcrux, you know. I cant be killed. What about Protego btw? ;)

No.

Harry Potter doesn't have anywhere near enough lore to support a good MMO.

Not to mention a game series based on a critically panned book / film series is unlikely to be good.

I Think exactly the Same. As a Big Harry Potter Fan, I really would like to see this coming.

Well, I think this could work. It could start before the first "dark age" and go to the end of the series. There could be lots of side quests to make the game more interesting. You could choose one of the 3 schools, and take a quiz to see what house you are in. Also, not everyone could use avada kadavra because they would choose a class like: transfigurations, potions expert, herbologist, dark arts and other things. There should be some sort of system so you cant just spam avada kadavra, in pvp. The only tricky thing would be aiming, so it could use cross-hair or free form aiming as seen in Wildstar. Standard tab aiming wouldnt work out so well in my opinion.
