RPG Fans! Help me choose a name that reminds us of "Might & Magic"

Hey everyone!

I’d like to start working on my new game, but I want a name! Why do I want a name? Because I need to get a website. This time I’m going to be smart and talk about the game from the very beginning.

The game is a “Party Based First Person RPG” with real time adventuring and turn-based fighting. Concept based on the Might & Magic 6-8 games. [which are still my favorite of all time]

So I want the title to feel similar.

I’m thinking…

• “Force & Fury”
• “Power & Prophecy”
• “Strength & Sacrifice”
• “Strength & Sorcery”
• “Warriors & Wizards”

Obviously I’m stuck on the alliteration of it all :slight_smile: Also I’m a fan of the flow, so the same syllables and emPHAsis is something I’m going for.

But, what do you think? Any thoughts on this?

THANKS

Does it have a theme or a motif or something other than being a generic fantasy RPG?

Generic really – you’re a party of people – lots of races/classes etc, all chosen by the player – that goes out from your small town on a quest and ends up saving the world or something.

The world has a couple strong kings / kingdoms, some mystical/magical presences, lots of towns with people who need help, dungeons, mazes, etc.

“Warriors & Wizards” is a far too close to the classic game “Wizards & Warriors.” Best to scratch that off the list.

YES. I knew there was something like that but couldn’t quite grab it!

Would all of the text need to be justified then?

But to make sure you don’t upset the left & right wing gamers you better have it centre justified.

Is your game a serious rpg or is it fun, irreverent? The name should help convey some of that.

Ha!

It’s a serious one. I’m sure I’ll attempt to write some humor in there, but it’ll be serious.

Can’t you just turn it around, change it a little, and make it “The Magical and the Mighty” …?

For further (yet still thematic) differentiation add a subtitle, like “The Magical and the Mighty: In the Land of X-Lax!”

I don’t want to run into any actual copyright or trademark things. If it’s too close, I’m sure that’d be an issue. I just want it to ‘feel’ the same.

Blade and Spell?
Clash and Cast?
Might of Mana?

GOT IT!
Weapons and Wizardry

Probably “Anything & Anything” will seem similar. Just look at all the suggestions you’ve been given already. :wink:

Before this conversation get’s further down the rabit hole of non-sense (btw @Ony , did you know the nerdy body gaurd’s only other famous role was Darth Vader?), I would like to thow out that I’ve always like simple names over complicated ones for RPG’s.
