Various settings I would like to see an RPG set in:

True western (no fantasy, scifi, steampunk, or "weirdness")
Weird western, something like Deadlands
Modern horror, doesn't have to be vampires
Space Opera
Fantasy where you can travel to different planets

Zagor the RPG (Sounds good and trashy enough)

Wikipedia said:
Zagor isn't your typical western character, there's a mix of horror and sci-fi side by side with a bit of humour coming mostly from his sidekick Chico, a short, fat Mexican man who became his best friend. His full name is "Don" Chico Felipe Cayetano Lopez Martinez y Gonzales.

Some sort of reverse "Papers Please". You are trying not to starve or be picked up by the secret police whilst trying to smuglge you and your friends out of some Stalinist Hellhole...
Pass me the +1 packet of razorblades....

Will probably be some crappy uninteresting RPG enviroment like that brand of sci-fi where everyone wears diving suits and lives in slick spaceships

I suddenly remembered that some years ago(even prior to DS3?) Gamebanshee was hyping up an interview with Feargus where he talked about various stuff,including some secret project iirc.Then they kept delaying it because Feargus wouldn't answer them back to lift the embargo.I don't think it ever got published.It's probably the same here.+M

It would actually be a pretty amazing starting point for an RPG, a very Soviet style city under the iron grip of its government.

Where you are not on the secret underground guerilla movement side, but work to prevent the overthrow of that government.

Looks like I was right. :smug:

It's not without precedent. I remember some game journalist saying that Feargus told him they were working on a South Park RPG before THQ had officially announced it and he had no idea if he was pulling his leg to see if he was trustworthy enough not to leak a rumor that may or may not have been true.

Also Feargus's adventures in the Kickstarter comments section where he kept saying things he shouldn't have.

I'm sure they'll happily work with bethesda again after the metascore debacle
They actually would. It was an insignificant-in-the-grand-scheme-of-things one-time bonus.

Anyway Josh isn't all that interested in working on VB anymore and I doubt Chris cares, so that's a dead project, anyone who still cares about it should just let it go.

It would actually be a popamole console corridor shooter.

Plus they used a good deal of VB material in FNV.
