Talk:Shining Force

If someone wants to take some in-game shots, especially those showing various playing modes mentioned in the article, that'd be pretty awesome. Just saying. - Scarred Sun 04:14, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Good idea, so I'm adding that up. But I've also wondered about the lenght of the article, with the lenghty story and gameplay, now with the character table and it doesn't even name half of them. The article will be huge if it keeps everything like this. I thought about making a page for the Shining franchise in general, then explain each division of the franchise (ie dungeon crawler, strategic RPG and action RPG). There explain there how the gameplay works, as it's very consistent through all of them. Then either note the differences there or/and in the main article for each game. It would make stuff less redundant too. Characters and story and the rest would also have their own pages and with that in mind I made a template. 0r4ng3 15:01, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

That would be far too many articles for one game. - Hivebrain 16:49, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, waaaay too many. You might get away with splitting one off for all characters or doing gameplay/items in depth. Beyond that. - Scarred Sun 17:43, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
