If it takes place in Hammerfell, I think some bread inspired by the Middle East and Mediterranean would be pretty cool. Endless possibilities really. Can’t wait to see what Bethesda comes up with.
It’s not pictured here but I personally think we will see lots of wind erosion patterns if the game takes place in Hammerfell where there isn’t as much rainfall. What do you guys think?
What about you guys? What fruits and vegetables would you want introduced?
Might do a post about types of bread next.
Like I’m sure there will be a lot of grass, which type do you think they’ll use the most though?
It’s important to the plot that they new Imperial uniform show midriff at all times
Made more character task dialogues and got some screenshots of other Star Wars games and mods and other fan created concepts.

(EDIT: I forgot to add, the menu music will play the cantina band music)
I had an idea of a Tropico game set in the Star Wars universe. You’d be the regional governor of a planet, and in campaign mode you’d advance to be a regional governor over multiple planets in your collection which all share resources.
Instead of Penultimo, you would have a protocol droid as your advisor named “PN-020” (Penn-Oh-two-Oh” and instead of El presidente you’d just be called “Governor.”
Just like how Tropico has 4 different “eras” that you progress through (colonial, world wars, Cold War, modern times) this game will also have 4 different eras, pre-clone wars (phantom menace time period), the clone wars, Empire/Rebellion era, and the New Republic/First Order era.
You can choose which faction you want to side with and this will have consequences, for example if you are very friendly with the separatists then the republic will invade you. Or if you are friendly with the empire then rebels will sabotage you.
Events from the movies will happen offscreen and have consequences for your planet, for example, when the Trade Federation blockades Naboo, you will no longer be able to import or export from Naboo and will have to figure out other ways to get plasma (their main export.) When Order 66 is given, all the Jedi on your planet will get attacked by clones and any Jedi temples that you have built will be destroyed, etc.
You can progress your technology level all the way until you’re able to build your own super weapon, like the Death Star, which you can use to prevent invasions permanently. You can build a “criminal palace” like Jabbas palace and host criminal syndicates to do missions for you, build a bounty hunters guild to find and arrest citizens that are criminals, build an ISB station to find and arrest hidden rebel spies amongst your population, build a smugglers den/pirate haven to go on heists and hijack cargo ships, build a Jedi temple to train Jedi, build droid factories to make various types of droids to either export or use as military, make mini cloning facilities to make your own clone army.
For entertainment you’d be able to build casinos, night clubs, opera houses, even make your own podracing circuit that can go all around your city and will attract tourism.
For industry, you could build droid factories to sell droids, starship and speeder manufacturing, weapons, furniture, hyperdrives, etc.
you’d be able to mine Kalkite, Kyber crystals, Beskar, etc. and be able to extract tibanna gas, plasma, and rhydonium.
You’d have several different planets to choose from, each with their own biome and environmental quirks, for example on Tatooine there would be dust storms and attacks by tusken raiders. On Hoth there would be blizzards and wampa attacks, on Endor there would be Ewok attacks if you have too much military, on Naboo you’d have to maintain your water pollution or else gungans will attack you, on Mustafar and Sullust there are volcanic eruptions, etc.
The different factions would be Jedi, Sith, Smuggler, Criminal Syndicate, Military, Bounty Hunter, and corporatist
Instead of axis and allies or western powers and soviets, you’d have the republic vs separatists and empire vs rebellion and New Republic vs First Order.
So that’s my idea. I think it would work extremely well, I love city builder and park builder sims, and I love Star Wars, so a game like this would be a dream come true.

Also, these are just fun “what if” video game covers, they serve only to give a rough visual representation of my ideas. Again, I do not claim ownership or credit for artwork used, this is just a Reddit post made for fun and I am in no way monetized.
Imperial Commando: A direct sequel to Republic Commando, where you play as delta squad at the end of the clone wars. During one of the early missions of the game, Palpatine issues order 66, then the game turns into Delta’s missions to hunt down Jedi across the galaxy one by one. You will also fight various criminal syndicates and space pirates and early rebel cells. Set during the last days of the republic and early Empire.
Rebel Commando: A ghost Recon Wildlands/Breakpoint style game where you command a squad of hardened rebel guerillas, mostly focused on covert ops and sabotage missions, set between episodes 5 and 6. The game will be mainly focused on clearing out large imperial encampments and planting bombs and collecting intel and stealing technology. It will be very similar to Tom Clancy games like Rainbow Six Vegas, Ghost Recon Future soldier and Wildlands. The last mission of the game will be collecting intelligence on the 2nd deathstar, which will result in the death of many bothans as well as your squad, it will have an ending similar to Halo:Reach, where you die but the torch is passed for others to win the fight.
Rogue Squadron-Rebirth: A reboot of the rogue squadron series, starts off with the Battle of Scariff as an action packed opening and tutorial, then you play as Wedge Antilles through the Battle of Yavin, Hoth, Endor, Jakku, and missions involving hunting down imperial remnants, and a few missions in between each of these. Then it skips ahead and you play as Poe Dameron vs the First Order.
Galaxy at War: a reboot of the RTS “Empire at War” but with enhanced graphics and set within the new canon. This game will include all 3 eras, including the clone wars, galactic civil war, and new republic eras, and will have simultaneous space battles and infantry battles where each affects the other and you can switch back and forth in real time. For example, if the rebels have an ion cannon on the surface that is disabling your capital ships, then it might be better to focus on the ground battle and have your infantry take out the ion cannon. Or, if your infantry is having trouble, use your capital ships for orbital bombardment or send a squadron of fighters to do a strafing run.
New Command (alternative title-Shadow Command) A Mass Effect style RPG set during the early days of the New Republic. It will follow the exact same formula as the Mass Effect trilogy. You are a newly appointed commander to the New Republic, you pilot a large frigate and this serves as your home base and mission hub. Your mission is to rid the galaxy of a new and powerful criminal syndicate that has filled the vacuum left by the defeated empire: The Black Sun, lead by the fearsome Prince Xizor. You will also fight imperial remnants, space pirates, and other criminal syndicates like The Pykes, Hutt Cartel, Crimson Dawn, Guavian death gangs, etc. Near the end of the game you discover black sun was hired by a rising new threat, a splinter group of the empire that has been growing in the shadows: The First Order. You will be able to recruit several characters of various alien races and archetypes to be part of your crew that you can bring on missions with you, just like in Mass Effect. There will be some cameos by legacy characters, like a mission assisting Han Solo with smuggling, a quest line given by Luke Skywalker to try and find more force sensitive individuals across the galaxy, and a quest line given by Max Kanata to find ancient relics scattered across the galaxy, with the last mission of that quest line culminating in finding Anakin/Luke’s lightsaber that he lost on Cloud City. The game will feature numerous worlds to travel to, Including Coruscant, Hosnian Prime, Corellia, Naboo, Canto Bight, Nar Shadda, Tatooine, Ryloth, Cloud City, Takodana, Ord Mantell, Mygeeto, etc.
The Mandalorian: a reboot of the 2002 Bounty Hunter game, you play as the Mandalorian in a semi-open world hitman style game where you have the freedom to take out your bounty targets how you choose. There will also be uncharted-like action heavy set pieces and scripted, more linear levels in between the more open sections. Grogu will ride on your back and you can use his force powers while also controlling the Mandalorian.
Galactico: A version of the game city building Sim “Tropico” but set in the Star Wars universe. This will be a more humorous and satirical game just like Tropico and will parody Star Wars and break the 4th wall often.
The point of the game is that you have multiple planets to choose from for you to build your own city and govern it how you choose. Just like how Tropico has 4 different “eras” that you progress through (colonial, world wars, Cold War, modern times) this game will also have 4 different eras, pre-clone wars (phantom menace time period), the clone wars, Empire/Rebellion era, and the New Republic/First Order era.

Imagine everything you can do in Tropico, but just Star Wars themed.

Got this from work vending machine, I know we all used to joke about how chip bags had a bunch of air pockets, but it used to be like half the bag, now literally just the bottom layer of the bag has chips, there was maybe 7 or 8 chips in it.
Loved the Southern Gothic and claymation aesthetic and art style. It was like the“Splash Mountain” ride and the Haunted Mansion ride from Disney world, mixed in with a small dose of Coraline and James and the Giant Peach and Princess and the Frog.
I generally liked the story, although I didn’t always know exactly why or what I was doing.
The gameplay works well enough, it gets extremely repetitive. The combat is fun, but it’s missing something. It would benefit from button combos like God of War, Darksiders, etc. it would also benefit from more enemy variety. It is strangely very similar to Jedi: Survivor in a lot of the environment navigation, almost feels like a carbon copy in some respects.
The puzzles were too few and too simple imo, it was usually just “move this crate here so you can jump up, oh, the crate is blocked by something? Okay well turn on the power and open the garage door” type stuff. It would have benefited a lot from more Zelda-like puzzles, especially with the powers that you have.
The real winner is the audio and soundtrack. Lots of songs performed by artists and a soundtrack that makes you feel like you’re in right there in Louisiana. But the best part is the hum of cicadas that you hear in the background. Really makes you feel like it’s a summer day in the Deep South.
The voice acting for everyone was also great.
Overall, I liked this game. As someone from Georgia, I’ve always wanted a game with the exact aesthetic and atmosphere. I hope to see a sequel that expands the game and improves the foundation they have laid down the same way Jedi: Survivor expanded Jedi: Fallen Order.
