How badly would studios butcher AO adaptations?

We could assume the average stereotypical corporate-first/art-second studio.

Yeah this ain’t going well…

I first thought of this question when thinking about how badly these studios would butcher my stories.

AO doesn’t have anything to butcher

It might turn out that Warren is the one who started The Oathkeepers, so they’re gonna write a dialogue where some Oathkeeper Squire or Templar says, “Ah Warren, welcome to The Juraserva!”.

its really simple to make AO into a movie if you just follow the story tbh :confused:

90 minutes move with ellius as the bad guy that appears completly out of nowhere

… Gonna be honest here, the story is actually at around Hollywood’s level. If they were just adapting the story, it wouldn’t really be butchered.

The ravenna prison segment will probably be censored heavily, or it wont sit right with people because of how it could be framed

It would be the only property to actually improve from corporate meddling.

10x the development budget and more depth to all of the mechanics, but there’s now EA level microtransactions

Pfff, nah, the prison section is comically sanitized. I’ve seen elementary schools more brutal than it.

If you wanted it to feel crueler, V-man could’ve had like, a prisoner who’s trying his hardest to cover for the shift of one of the others, who is badly ill from an infection caused by a beating. And you watch as the guy nearly works himself to save his friend, who dies anyways.

Alternatively, some of the prisoners could talk about someone who intentionally caused a cave-in on herself in an attempt just to escape the place. She survived, only to slowly die of internal bleeding.

Or hell, just show some of the prisoners collapsing of exhaustion, and the player having to carry them back to their cells, with the guards making threats the entire way.

you forget this is a roblox game and having the age rating increased would pretty badly affect the game

Some of these wouldn’t even raise the age rating. AO already has blood and mentions of genocide, this is nothing.

You good man?

Disappointed in the sanitization of artistic media, is all. The faintest glimpse of real darkness is more shaking and simultaneously more grounding than any amount of exposure to a hand-clasped venture into nothing but a facade of a shadow.

Reminded me of the time when Activision had the ball to make the “no russian” mission
