Creativity

[bixjj03]

you guys are working in so many scenarios but all of these are reltaed with a book, a movie or another game. why dont you guys try to be a little more imaginative and create your own stories that have nothing to do with other things?
its just an opinion, dont get angry just because of this thread

Scenarios creators want to make good scenarios. And making their own story for a scenario could most likely not get alot of people into the scenario.
The only scenario i've seen that was totally made up that is good, is John Valdez's Antartica scenario, and it would probably take a good amount of time to make up a good story that would make a good scenario. Scenario creators don't want to create a scenario thats a flop.

Well, I think this is simply not true. Most of the scns are about historic events, so it is natural that they haven´t an own story. And there are still a lot of creative efforts necessary to implement historic things correctly in civ2.

bixjjo3 Im new to creating scenarios Im just in the begining of 2 of them.I guess its hard to be that creative.I always wondered why nobody every made scenarios in the Dragon Lance series or The forgotten Realms .I thing alot of people are narrowed to the units people already made its so hard to find or make new art work for the units

Its simply that scenario makers, who have a reputation of making good like Kobayashi and Bebro, Captain Nemo ect.....they don't want to make a bad scenario. And creating your own story and then turning it into a scenario is risky. PEople might not like that story/scenario.

If the scenario makers aren't be creative, i applaud them for not being creative, because their scenarios rock!

A good alternative can be a What if scenario. In example, what if Caesar died in alesia's battlefield?
