Brandon SandersonThe highly prolific author behind the popular Cosmere series of books, he hasn't been shy about sharing how much he loves video games. He was very vocal about George R.R. Martin working on Elden Ring, was active on Moonbreaker, a smaller strategy title, and had wanted to be more involved in the industry for a while. But back in 2022, he got very specific about what his dream title would be.
During the Q&A session New York Comic Con 2022 Sanderson was asked in front of a large audience which of his novels he thought were best suited for making video games. He had been thinking about that question for years, so he didn't hesitate much. “I would still choose Mistborn,” he said. “You know, Mistborn's range and magic mechanics adapt very well to video games”
He continued: “Do you guys remember the old games? infamous?Well, I thought InFAMOUS was a pretty good model of how to make a Mistborn game.? Because there were many mechanisms of movement. I love the mechanics of movement in video games. I like my characters to be fluid and feel like they're going somewhere, and Infamous has mastered exactly that. It happened in one city. I think the story of Mistborn should actually take place in one city with lots of interesting architecture and things to visit. And I really like the kind of power set, how it played out in Infamous. That would be my model. ”
Of course, this very topic has long been discussed among his fans on the Internet.many people agreed with that assassin's creed It would be a perfect fit for an adaptation of Mistborn, and oddly enough Sanderson seems to have thought of that as well. “I agree with you on some points, but it depends on which version of Assassin's Creed you're talking about. Because you say Assassin's Creed, but at the moment there are seven different games. Because it's like.
However, whether such a thing will ever happen remains a mystery, with the author himself admitting that he would love to work on such a project, “but these days you have to find $100 million to make those things.” No need.”
