1. 1) What art style do you think would work well
in an Action Role Playing Game?
Celshaded
Photo Realistic
Exaggerated
Abstract
2. • More than half of the people surveyed chose
exaggerated as the best suited art style. This
allows me when making my concept art to
focus on using this graphical style.
• Exaggeration art style suits this genre of
games very well to make the game more
appealing by making huge swords, unrealistic
characteristics.
3. 2) Which area of a game should have the most
focus when it comes to concept art?
Environment
Characters
Items
Level Designs
4. • Around 47% of people voted that environment
should have the most focus when it comes to
concept art. This gives me a heads up that the
environment should be really detailed.
• Making the environments very detailed gives the
game a very good impression as the player will
be in an environment at any given time.
5. 3) Which 3 character classes do you think would
be most suitable for a Dark Action RPG?
Knight / Archer / Mage
Dragonslayer / Hunter /
Necromancer
Rogue / Gunner / Monk
6. • The first option as the most voted which
means I will work on making those classes in
my concept art. A knight, Archer, Mage
• These are the most common classes in this
genre of games (ARPG – Action Role Playing
Game)
7. 4) What would be the most suitable weapon for
a Knight / Archer / Mage?
Longsword / Crossbow / Staff
Dagger / Longbow / Wand
Shortsword / Throwing Knifes / Magic
Book
8. • The most suitable weapons for the classes
which are Long sword, Crossbow, Staff.
• Most popular weapons in video games across
the rpg genre with the exception of
crossbow/longbow/short bow which are all
equal.
9. 5) What locations are best suited with
an RPG?
Medieval Castles and Fields
Modern Cities
Across All terains ( Deserts, Grasslands,
Sea )
10. • The multi environment and terrain was voted
the best as it offers the most adventure and
exploration. This also offers a diverse world for
the players to explore instead of a constant
setting.
11. 6) What mount would be best suited for the
chosen classes Knight / Archer / Mage?
Horses
Bears
Dragons
12. • Horses were the most popular choice which
lets me focus on making horses in my concept
art instead of any other mount.
• Horses are basic and are usually considered
one of the most trustworthy and realistic
mounts.
13. 7) What style should the enemies be?
Humanoid
Un Humanoid
Undead
Demonic
14. • Undead enemies look like a popular choice so
my monsters / enemies will look zombified,
ghostly, dead. This is a popular choice among
the enemies for most action rpgs
15. 8) What type of armor is most suited
for each Class?
Platebodies / Leather / Robes
Chainbodies / Hard Leather / Hooded
Robes
Mecha Suit / Dragon Leather /
Enchanted Robes
16. • Plate bodies, Leather armour, and robes were
the top voted.
• This relates with the chosen classes the most
and is the most suitable set.
• Plate bodies for the knights for extra
protection. Light leather armour for quick
manoeuvres for the archers who don’t attack
with close range and robes for wizard who
also don’t do close combat but attack from
the distance.
