The perfect Bionicle already exists, it's that one browser point-and-click game where you explored the island.

Battle Royale where you go around collecting masks and gear for your blank slate Toa. The twist is that there are tons of non-playable enemies that come after you like Bohrok and assorted Rahi

That sounds great also. I like that.

The beginning of the series death

The perfect idea is this alright

Let's remake Bionicle Online flash game

In 3D

multiplayer hack&slash looter with fully customizable kits, three class system.

You could bring back the rakshi (the hunched lizardmen with staffs, right?) and bohrok (the transforming balls) and have it so that their lore gets expanded or diminished in the game because they're supposed to have nearly every colour variation and that gives them different powers, not just the standard 6 that were released as figures. Probably have it be set in either mata or metro nui, have their be plenty of industrial stuff, some ruinous areas, and also full jungles, snow capped mountains, lava streams pouring out of volcanoes, etc. Have it play similar to oblivion and breathe of the wild, but have a more seperated /gated class and level up system. Have ability trees, but harder to "multiclass" and succeed,like in d&d they'd have plenty of utility, but not as well in combat or doing a harder levelled utility check

Kenshi but Bionicle

I really got to hand it to the makers, for having their only job being to sell toys to children they made a damn solid kids movie, with all the themes that a kids movie should have

Fuck me if I remember much of it either, it was really forgettable. They just redid the Toa Mata characters

Should a Bionicle MMO be centered around Matoran/toa or should it include other playable taces?

Matoran/Toa
You can only play as Matoran

This
Except more than 3 classes

I remember reading somewhere, I think in one of those old soft cover encyclopedias, where it has a bunch of characters, animals, etc. and had said Matau was able to escape from inside of a locked room by creating a big burst of air, basically containing and then releasing a vacuum.
That being said, psionics.
They were okay, I really liked those 2 giant guys, one has an axe and the other had a double sword and I thought that was really dumb but cool. And then umbra had some sort of rewind power I think? It wasn't show off much in the comics, but he really had more potential.

>Roodaka ditched the beta orbiter for the Big Makuta Cock

I think multiple taces could be a good idea. Like a Bionicle version of Warcraft

I own 2 pohatus, what do I win?

Literally just a multiplayer open world arpg, up to six players that become Toa part way through. Then just allow them to create their own Matoran and Toa, loads of different abilities based on their element and masks, and many places to travel since Bionicle has like 10 continents at this point.

Salaam was my favourite because air was always my favourite of the bionicle elements

Fucking auto correct, *zaktan

So how would the classes, powers, and elements breakdown go
I'm thinking like this
>Throw element weaknesses out the window, fuck that shit especially when you only have one guy
>Fire = Fast attackers, beserkers
>Air = Dexboys, jumping and flips and shit
>Water = Middleground fighters, healing abilities
>Ice = Strategies and timing, counters, hit and run
>Stone = Strengthboys, big dick damage
>Earth = Tankboys
>Your character can build into abilities, weapon types, or both
>All weapon types, some could aid in movement or have special functions
>Elemental powers are balanced but unique, offeting both utility and damage
Thoughts, additions, changes you'd make?

>"Toa Jaller revived in time to see the danger his friends were in. He glanced to the side and saw Kongu crawling back through the hole in the wall. "I have an idea," he whispered.
>"Good," Kongu replied, "Hope it starts with, 'Mata Nui is just taking it easy for a while and he'll feel better. Let's go home.'"
>"I need you to use your mask in a way you haven't before," Jaller said. "I'm not sure, but I think there's more to the Mask of Life than we know. Remember what Umbra said? It created the Protodax to guard it. Kongu, it may be that the mask is capable of some kind of thought!"
>"So it's evidently one up on you," Kongu said, "Masks don't think."
>"This one does," Jaller insisted. "Maybe not like we do, but . . . Use your Mask of Telepathy. Try to read the mask's thoughts, and project them into Vezon's mind. If you can distract him for a few moments, I think I know how to end this."
>Any idea Kongu had of arguing further was banished by the sight of Vezon aiming his spear at Hahli, Hewkii, Matoro, and Nuparu. Still doubting this idea had any chance of working, he focused the power of his mask in the Mask of Life fused to Vezon. At first, all he "heard" was silence. Then there was a jumble of colors and images and sounds all running together like a fast-moving stream. He almost broke off the connection, as much out of shock as the difficulty if interpreting what he was encountering.

Do you ever get the impression that bionicle thread participants are of a higher intellect than the rest of Yea Forums?

good god no

Tell me Yea Forums, if you were designing a Bionicle game, what style of aesthetics would you use
>Accurate to the toys
>Bionicle movie style
>A middle ground between those two
>A style similar to Warframe or Anthem

fuck you

You say It as if It was some kind of achievement

Assuming this is for a RPG, these would be my picks:
>Fire = middle ground, jack off all trades
>Air = Dex, focus on agility and counters
>Water = heals/buffs/defuffs/other utility roles
>Ice = crowd control and crits
>Stone = tanks
>Earth = strength

Movie, though maybe use cel-shading for a more comic book appearance. It's important to discern what bits of the design are important to the aesthetic, and which are just bits to make the toys fit and move properly and can be excised in a game.

thats a interesting question. i would say closer to the toys, with maybe minor tweaks, the movie designs felt really generic and cheap to me, almost like a bootleg product.

So kinda like the Netflix G2 series?

>higher intellect than the rest of Yea Forums
It's not hard to be above 80IQ.

Has to be OG toys like. But with the world design from the movies.

>considering literal 13 year olds browse this site I would say we're just older

Yeah something between that and maybe that Bionicle console game with the Pirahka.

>Kongu took a deep breath and kept on. Now the images were beginning to take on clearer shape. He saw Vezon and Kardas . . . he saw Matoro . . . the Mask of Life knew the sacrifice Matoro had beem willing to make. It knew Matoro had long borne the burden of secret knowledge, things he learned from the Turaga but had been forbidden to share with other Matoran.
>The mask knew one thing more as well, something even Kongu had not known. On the journey to Voya Nui, Matoro and the others had traveled through a pitch-dark tunnel. Along the way Matoro had stumbled over what felt like a living being and reached out a hand to help. A hand clasped his and Matoro had led whar ge thought was one of his friends out of the tunnel and into the light. When he made it out the other end, he saw that Jaller, Hewkii, and all the rest were already there. Turning around he saw that no one was holding his hand,, even though he could still feel that cold grip. Startle and frightened, he never told anyone about this.
>Now Kongu could see what had truly happened. The power of the Mask of Light was so great that it had reached out to Matoro even over so vast a distance. Even wandering in the darkness, Matoro had shown a willingness to help someone he perceived to be in need - never realizing that "someone" was just a manifestation of the mask's power.
>Abruptly, the mask's feelings became crystal clear. It despised Vezon, though of the Piraka as less than nothing, barely worth of the life that infused him. If it were possible, it would have withdrawn it's curse and let Vezon take his chances in battle. What it truly wanted was a new guardian: Matoro.

>Tfw I am the only one that wants a game with full Miramax movie aesthetics
But to be fair I would probably want some characters and creatures to be redesigned a bit. The Vahki for example because they suck ass compared to the toy

Zettai Hero Project
Delving into the depths of the island while dropping/getting back pieces to improve your Toa

something like gundam breaker 3

Zelda-like adventure game, BoTW levels of exploration with dungeons and puzzles like those seen in the previous 3D titles.

Masks and weapons can be found in the world or in dungeons, given as quest rewards, or claimed from enemies. They give the player access to abilities like shielding, cryokinesis, levitation, etc. and the puzzles will often have several different solutions thanks to the varied mask and weapon powers.

Also players should be able to upgrade their robot besides simply equipping them with masks or weapons. Gears made of special materials could be used to increase right hand attack speed for example, while certain leg parts would grant increased running speed or jump height.

I'm really not a big fan of the character designs for the movies, I think they look too different. For the purpose of a video game, maybe something like pic related.

Not really specific enough to critique
I guess I can add-on though
Fire can also do "area denial", laying down some fire on the floor temporarily or casting a fire wall. Enemies can still move in these areas, but take damage. Maybe give them normal fire casting abilities- fireball, short range flame thrower, being able to light a torch (when wielded) at will. Can do burn damage.
Air, definitely high dex. Give a busy power, can knock back enemies, maybe even knock prone. Speed boost or just an air dash, but also give long jump and even dash back. Maybe have a sort of mini shield bubble of air that can deflect ranged attacks.
Water, well healing is obvious and good. Can "water walk", meaning in this instance, they can move super fast on way surfaces. If a wall is wet, they can move on it, maybe even through it like in isolation of the water surface area is large enough. Water breathing, obviously. Maybe have some weather abilities, not storms but can do rain. Maybe even do a fog cloud.
I've can do a n ice wall, has to be broken through unlike to fire wall. Also can make ground more slippery, rough terrain for enemies. Can give ice shield sort of buffs to allies, harder skin I guess. Can also do slow or stun against enemies.
Stone. Fuck it, I'm too day drink to keep typing this on a tablet and stone and earth are pretty similar in an elemental sort of sense for when dumbing down for vidya. Hope this has helped.

Bionicle will never be alive again.

>Kongu gasped at that revelation. Then he realized there would be time to be shocked later. He had a job to do. Fighting the strain, he grasped the mask's thoughts and forced them into Vezon's mind.
>The effect was immediate. Vezon and Kardas stopped dead. Rage and grief warred on Vezon's face as he realized he had been condemned for eternity to serve a mask that held him in contempt. The object he fought so hard to protect wanted to abandon him like he was trash. It was more than Vezon's already unstable mind could accept.
>"No!" he shouted, his voice ragged. "I did everything you asked! I beat the Piraka! I beat the Toa! No one is touching you, no one taking you from this place, ever! And I won't be gotten rid of after all this - I won't!"
>Vezon's crimson eyes fixed on Matoro. "So it wants you, does it?" he hissed, aiming his spear at the dazed Toa Inika of Ice. "Let's see if it still does when I'm through with you. You can be the ultimate chamber guard Toa, once you are fused with all the lava that courses through this chamber."
>Jaller saw the energies begin to crackle around the head of the spear. Moving faster than he ever had, he loaded the special zamor sphere Axonn had given him. Axonn had said the Toa would need it if they ever hoped retrieve the Mask of Life. Jaller hoped he was right and that now was the time to use it.
>He fired his launcher. The zamor sphere struck Vezon. Instantly, a shimmering glow enveloped both the Piraka and Kardas, freezing them both in mid-motion. Jaller didn't take time to analyze what had just happened.

Not with that attitude. We better start learning programming or something and pump out enough content to be noticed

>original bionicles struck a perfect balance of organic and mechanical
>even by the time of the Nuva they were already warping into this weird mess that looked too organic despite being more mechanical than ever

Maybe I'm just showing my age but I never could bring myself to care after that. When I tried looking into them years later I think there was a grand total of one set that didn't look ass ugly and I still didn't like it as much as the originals.

Bionicle game in the form of a dmc game where each mask is a different "style."

I just want to live a comfy existence in some Mata Nui village

OG bionicles were completely mechanical in look though. The only thing organic was their surroundings

It was the peak

I guess I was just thinking of it as a big picture thing then.

Did the newer sets even bother keeping that mystical tribal setting at least? What I remember of the Nuva storyline (so, very little but still) felt like some weird power rangers shit.

Quite literally the Piraka.

Fire or Light

2001 to 2003 was all about Mata Nui and thus tribal setting.
They went back a bit with the tribal thing with the Vota Nui storyline I think, but It also had fortresses of the Piraka and shit

That feels?
What?

Demons souls meets system shock

Player (s) are a custom toa in a time/dimension crisis situation. Some known toa are still npc.s and others are dead, player gets to use weapons and other items they find like in the voya nui online game

>that feels
I know that feel when of doing poor grammar

Bionicle lives in our hearts

The Skakdi/Piraka. Also if Spiriah didn't interfere with them they would have probably make Wakanda Nui.

Apparentely in Mask of Light when Hahli tells the Matoran that It is time to wake up Mata Nui there is a voice on the crowd chatter that says "he's a Big machine" or something. But It is difficult to hear.
Also, remember when ,in Legends of Metru Nui, Makuta puts to Mata Nui sleep and the two suns on the sky get eclipses? those were Mata Nui's eyes closing

Thok is in the pic tho. Just covered

That's true, but Lego has a personal incoherent retardation-tier hatred towards Bionicle (mostly from having a boomer mindset of old = good, new = bad).

They also hate complex storylines for unbeknownst reasons. Hero Factory and Bionicle G2 were meant to both have massive lore and storylines rivaling Bionicle G1 and they fuckin gimped them on that.

Also user don't get yourself hurt or into trouble I care about you.

Okami with Lego
It captures the same sense of adventure I'd want from a Bionicle game, and the idea of a character gaining power by earning the good will of the people and cleansing the land of evil meshes well with the Toa's role as protectors of the matoran.
A uniqque artstyle would be nice, too.

>Hero Factory and Bionicle G2
Don't even compare the two. Faber had an incredible concept that Lego shat all over for HF. G2 was gimped from the start and its only level of complexity came from concept artists and a commissioned author who had to beg for characters to have fucking NAMES.

Don't do this to me LEGO

Honestly the beginning of the end was when they defeated makuta the first time and did that flashback to metro-nui shit. I personally loved the new setting but I think that's around the time the majority of the fans lost track of the plot and stopped collecting seriously. I realize by then it had a healthy fan community online but that wasn't exactly keeping the franchise alive. Early Bionicles were the best. The beasts of makuta, borak and rakshi, tua nuva, etc. Those were the golden years in my opinion, although I completely understand if others may prefer the metro nui era.

Metru-Nui > Voya-Nui > Mahri-Nui > Mata-Nui
I still haven't finished the Karda-Nui arc.

This. I also think the transition to Voya Nui was a significant step down. They kept changing settings each year for the next three years, and each got less and less development. Who remembers anything about Karda Nui? No one

>Mata-Nui last
Terrible taste.

No problem, I can decipher it fine lol.

>1. what do you mean hatrreasd for bionice? why??

I've heard this mostly from /biog/ and /lg/ on /toy/ but whenever a Lego rep or employee is asked about Bionicle they speak with nothing but disgust towards it. As for why, I guess the boomer mentality transferred to younger employees.

>2? if old = good than bionicle is good no? it's old

The hatred goes all the way back to when the first Mata sets were released. Some boomers didn't like Bionicle back then because then Bionicle was new and they didn't like it because it was different. Like I said before, I guess the mindset was just passed down the line.

>3. more lore = better imoh

Same here, brother. Been going through the Ulitmate Storyline Reading Order and everything is so connected it's insane (one of the few communities that reflects its base medium is Bionicle, imo, from how many people are connected and based in the community I often repeatedly run into others).

>4. thanks mna you too, i'm at home so al;'s good

That's good, user. Take it easy, bro, and enjoy yourself.

What's the deal with all the bionicle threads lately? Normally these only appear like once a month but we've had several since the start of March.

why were all the gen 2 masks so much shittier than gen 1?

>Everything > Mata-Nui

Lemme show you real taste (in terms of setting):
Mata-Nui >>> Metru-Nui = Voya-Nui > Mahri-Nui = Karda-Nui >> Bara Magna

Something developed by platinum games, with concepts from gen 2 used as a starting point. New story, but on Mata nui still.
Costumes unlocked post game that let you be the classic designs, and also a mode unlocked from the beginning that's similar to Lego digital designer and you can create a custom character.

Honestly, no masks ever came close to the original line of masks.

It's a sign of things to come, user. Something big is coming. Drunk user and I can feel it... the real question is... do you know what it takes to be a hero?

1 = + 2 thanks for the info i suupse as hard as it is to take it , i don't reall tunderstand why would they hate such a good franchise (can it be calle d that?)
3 i remember back in the day the stories were so intriguing (used ggoogle graamer fix to type that) that my friends and me all enjoyes that, it was so ddep and there was so much to enjoy , again so weird they'd just basiaclly disowen it

4 all is cool my man all is cool

in your oponion do you think they'd come over it and just cave in ? it really seems that now more than ever there's ointeresnt in this franchise because in the mind of boomes (or zoomer idk honestly) it just looks cool
but for the folks that atually enjoyed it it's so much more they might give it a chance

Metru-Nui was pretty cool, it was like a city and a modernized version of Matoran society.

Voya-Nui was pretty comfy because of the dark and rainy settings on the island imo.

Mahri-Nui is the same, but also a bit scary because it's in the deep sea and of the constant surrounding darkness.

Karda-Nui was also pretty comfy because of the foggy swamp.

Bara Magna was on an entirely different planet (and technically universe if we're talking Matoran Universe) and still had the mystery in the story, but almost none in the atmosphere being an entirely sunny and bright desert.

This is some sick artwork.

Untrue, fuck what Farshtey says.

Honestly, the hate for it is extremely autistic in my eyes. I wouldn't fear though, because as you said the popularity for it is bouncing back and if Lego keeps going on the path it's on (crappy quality control) they're going to be dealing with the weaponized autism of AFOLs and will need another Bionicle to save them. A lot of AFOLs (a good chunk of their consumer base) is interested in Bionicle and would like a definitive open-ended conclusion (allowing for fans to expand on it) rather than leaving it on a cliff-hanger.

I feel though something might be coming soon. Keep on the look out, friend. We might just be going home.

Weakling.

Godspeed, fellow Toa.

You're an idiot. "Romance" is just the word Greg decided to use for "sex" because he was talking to literal children on the internet. Matoran are fully capable of love.

These are the definition of the term "comfy" for me, personally. I'm not sure what it is. Maybe the hours I spent looking at this stuff as a kid it triggering something in my brain. But yeah, definitely comfy.

Plasma has gotta be the coolest, Pahrak-Kal was great. Would've loved if they had explored more toa with some of the secondary elements within the story, but the only ones we ever got were Krakua who barely ever showed up, and that serial about the three toa after the series ended, and Greg eventually just gave up that and everything entirely.

Shitposting aside, it's universally agreed that the best years of bionicle was the Mata Nui saga, with the underwater saga close behind.

My first was Gali. No regrets.

vahki existed for a long time before makuta took over, I don't recall them ever being described in enough detail to know if they were always secret police though, just that they were mooks that were no substitute for toa and getting destroyed by the truckload by the kanohi dragon

Something that's accurate to the toys, but with some Warframe influence (and by extension, Guyver influence). I think it'd be cool to see some firearms for the game too. Like, any weapon you wanted, whether it's a melee or ranged weapon, would have to be made from parts you scavenge from the areas. I'd just love to see a Bionicle carrying around a gun like I made here
Make the game a first or third person shooter. If the latter, Warframe is a primary influence mechanically

Attached: plasma rifle.jpg (2560x1440, 865K)

Bohrok are esentially robots and thus without a Krana they can be easily reprogrammed. Like what happened after the Bohrok invasion in Mata Nui when Matoran reprogrammed them to help repair the damage they did

the only thing that was damaged from the fight was the core processor. the robot was dismantled for resources, including to make homes for the races inside the robot.
i'd guess they were reprogrammed to help the agori/matoran like they were before the bohrok kal woke up.

Ah, that's sweat.

They were too organic and character specific while Mata masks were not only looked like real masks,but they were also released in several different colors.

Pretty much! Mata Nui had a built-in "disguise" system for when he observed planets. It kicked in when he crash landed and it produced the island to cover/hide his face.

And to add salt in the wound there are hints that the Mouse may or may not be a great driver of Bionicle's second and even more disgraceful death. For one,like all nuWars shit, the figures were mostly warming shelves around the world after TFA and also ,during 2016 Lego couldn't keep up with the demand of plastic crack to the point of having to build more factories so they had to reduce production or something
This might be some Alex Jones tier conspiracy theory but part of my, and probably some other deranged individual like me, believes that they killed Bionicle prematurely so that they could keep up the production of other sets because of the already mentioned problem (notice how right after the end of JtO the discontinuation of the sets was announced, so basically they were producing them less than 4 months while normally you could get a set in December that was released in the previous winter wave with not that much problem unless it was a exclusive thing)
And where does the Mouse fit? Well, why else would they save the production of nuWars ultra builds? Iirc, superhero constraction figs barely lasted one year because they were a flop

I'd suggest looking at some of the official sets here then looking at parts to see what you wanna make.

>understand that there's complex lore to the Bionicle franchise
>never got into it and just enjoyed building the sets as a way to occupy my time
I'm pretty sure I missed out, but at this point I don't care to invest myself into it. I'm just gunna go see if I can rebuild one of my sets in an afternoon.

Not any Matoran as well but Matoran of light
Any time Takua fought against the Bohrok, he was fighting against the corpses of his kind

>just plops the candle on his head because no one would give him a torch

Looks awfully similar to Unit 02
I always felt there was some sort of Eva inspiration to Bionicle. The whole biological vs mechanical angle.

After all this time, i never even realized that the Mata Nui Online Game got a sequel

>does anyone remember that point and click game that came on the mini-cd's?
Which one? The sort of real time strategy game? You had an army, three matoran, a turaga, and a toa I think. It was called "The Battle for Mata Nui".
There was also a game where you controlled Pohatu kicking boulders and Matoran throwing masks at Rahi. I think those were from MNOG.

Bug queen makes me diamonds no matter what universe she shows up in

More like zombies. Not only are they conscious and immobile while their bodies change into Bohrok, they are also aware of their mind deteriorating and becoming part of the hivemind.

to be fair it ran like absolute dogshit, was a horribly unfun grindfest that reeked of "rushed" the second you left ga-koro, and was infested with game-breaking bugs (a horrible mix with its grindiness)
and then something happened backstage that fucked with the files and made the game unloadable, and instead of getting the files back from the devs they just took the whole thing down

frankly it just made the first game look worse by comparison

Cringe
but good cringe

I can still remember the drum beat from the ruined village and I haven’t watched it in over a decade
AAAAAAAAAAA STOP user

>There was definitely some shifty stuff going on behind the scenes.
Agree, Lego has pulled out on lines very hard after the slightest hint of failure, yet Star Wars figures have managed to stay until last year despite the fact that some of their sets were still in stores years after their launch (I remember going to a Toys'R us in 2016 and there were more Reys and Finns than Uniters and Umaraks, even in a specialized Lego store I've seen that some TFA sets have been there between two and three years while the majority of Bionicle sets were dispatched fairly quickly)
I think the only thing that prevented that SW line to end back then was the Mouse. Too bad it got discontinued anyway just before we could watch those Lego wrist rockets.

This

Disney had threatened to cut ties with either some stores or toy manufacturers if they didn't keep the stale, poorly selling SW toys up on shelves.

>thought the earliest foreshadowing was in the metru nui movie with the eyes closing
>it was in the fucking MNOLG all along
how the fuck did what amount to a line of children's action figures end up with such a deep and convoluted 10/10 story

>tfw your IQ is too high to use a torch

Blame Faber, he was the one who thought about the giant robot plot twist and the one who decided that it should be kept a secret until the time was right. Which ended up being 8 fucking years later.

Where my Kopaka bros at?

I'm legitimately curious

Aw I was just about to play it too, is it really that bad?

But the Krana is the individual "piece" of the Bahrag hivemind. Without it a Bohrok is just a metallic husk unless you hack it.

Same here, please tell us more

if you just want to run around mata nui exploring and talking to matoran about the virtues it's fine
i don't recommend actually grinding the minigames to do the kohlii tournament (the main story of the game), just look up the last cutscene on youtube instead
