Dwarf Fortress and Doctor Who? I... can't even picture it.
Edit: I don't know why I thought it had to be a Dwarf Fortress style game in the Doctor Who universe, but actually, I'd absolutely watch a show about some time traveling dwarves! Strike the Time Vortex!
Ok, this has been driving me crazy for seven movies now, and I know you're going to roll your eyes, but hear me out: Harry Potter should have carried a 1911.
Here's why:
Think about how quickly the entire WWWIII (Wizarding-World War III) would have ended if all of the good guys had simply armed up with good ol' American hot lead.
Basilisk? Let's see how tough it is when you shoot it with a .470 Nitro Express. Worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles. The image is light-amplified and re-transmitted to your eyes. You aren't looking at it--you're looking at a picture of it.
Imagine how epic the first movie would be if Harry had put a breeching charge on the bathroom wall, flash-banged the hole, and then went in wearing NVGs and a Kevlar-weave stab-vest, carrying a SPAS-12.
And have you noticed that only Europe seems to a problem with Deatheaters? Maybe it's because Americans have spent the last 200 years shooting deer, playing GTA: Vice City, and keeping an eye out for black helicopters over their compounds. Meanwhile, Brits have been cutting their steaks with spoons. Remember: gun-control means that Voldemort wins. God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal.
Now I know what you're going to say: "But a wizard could just disarm someone with a gun!" Yeah, well they can also disarm someone with a wand (as they do many times throughout the books/movies). But which is faster: saying a spell or pulling a trigger?
Avada Kedavra, meet Avtomat Kalashnikova.
Imagine Harry out in the woods, wearing his invisibility cloak, carrying a .50bmg Barrett, turning Deatheaters into pink mist, scratching a lightning bolt into his rifle stock for each kill. I don't think Madam Pomfrey has any spells that can scrape your brains off of the trees and put you back together after something like that. Voldemort's wand may be 13.5 inches with a Phoenix-feather core, but Harry's would be 0.50 inches with a tungsten core. Let's see Voldy wave his at 3,000 feet per second. Better hope you have some Essence of Dittany for that sucking chest wound.
I can see it now...Voldemort roaring with evil laughter and boasting to Harry that he can't be killed, since he is protected by seven Horcruxes, only to have Harry give a crooked grin, flick his cigarette butt away, and deliver what would easily be the best one-liner in the entire series:
"Well then I guess it's a good thing my 1911 holds 7+1."
And that is why Harry Potter should have carried a 1911.
Alien insinuates itself into peaceful and kind community plotting to wipe out humanity. Might actually be a good game. Have to stop the alien before it triggers apocalypse, except you don’t know which person is the alien, and you can’t just kill off everyone to solve the problem. Have to keep it on the DL because everyone will either panic or think you’re nuts because you’re looking for an alien.
Flight out of LaGuardia is forced to ditch on water after its engines ingest a gaggle of broomstick-riding witches and a hippogriff. (Sully + Hogwarts Legacy)
Dune 2 and Flight Simulator 2020. Which… actually has an existing crossover DLC, believe it or not. They recently released it. You get to fly an Ornithopter around the movie scenery. I haven’t tried it myself as I prefer realism, but supposedly it’s pretty good.
So a spaceship full of journalists are trying to escape a fleet of Yakuza so that they can report on a breaking story. Gameplay includes making/breaking ties with factions of Yakuza and reporting on smaller stories along the way. Featuring Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe
Minecraft and a Youtube cooking show. There's actually a combo of mods like that already, Pam's Harvestcraft and Cooking for Blockheads. They're fun to mess around with.
I have only ever used those mods for random unrelated things.
I remember grinding wheat into flour, adding water to make dough, and then adding lime dye to make slimeballs because I really can't be bothered to go and hunt for slimes. I think that recipe was from Pam's HarvestCraft? At least the dough was.
And the only time I've used Cooking for Blockheads is when me and a friend built a giant nuclear reactor and needed a large supply of water to cool it. It turns out the Sink from Cooking for Blockheads provides infinite water that you can just pipe straight into the reactor chamber. Nice.
I don't watch a lot of series so that's probably Sword Art Online Abridged... x OpenTTD
So it's probably about getting stuck inside a video game but the stated goal is to build a transportation network that spans the world. And if you're bankrupt in game, you die for real.
Okay, so we've got an entire new range of Family Guy skins for Guild Wars 2. I can sort of see Stewie as an Asura...
and then we realize it's a Meg episone. A 175kg, 210cm Nord Meg episode.
I guess this patch's event has you exploring an endlessly deep space labyrinth with no space anchors so your only choice to keep the party alive is synthesizing consumables from enemy drops?
At the time it was Re:Zero (your generic ultraviolet obtuse fantasy anime) and Foundation (not the apple tv show, but the medieval colony sim) so basically things would’ve meshed pretty okay.
Dear God. I don't know what I just created, but I think I like it. The Federation is about to encounter the most terrifying civilization its ever run into, and they're all human. Just... very different humans.
Apparently I'm playing/watching The Talos Principle 2.5: Solo Leveling. I guess 1k is gonna stop solving puzzles and thinking about philosophy, and just use his newfound powers to blast his way to Athena.
Murder at the End of the World ends up set in God of War: Ragnarok. Tyr's temple in Midgard works as a stand in for the murder hotel. Atreus plays Darby. Odin plays Alan. Mimir is now Ray, the AI floating head.
Avatar the last air bender and rock band. Aang has trouble landing notes on his guitar with his air bending, Katara fries her bass amp by accidentally dousing it in water, Zuko melts the drum kit when he gets pissed that he fucked up the timing of the last song, and Sokka just can't sing, plain and simple.
I know Zuko isn't really part of the gang, but I haven't watched enough to know what Toph is like yet.
Shadows over Loathing x The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again Today
I'm guessing a Lovecraftian world filled with silly jokes, but with more delicious food and annoyed tongue clicking? To be honest, Shadows over Loathing is weird enough that a man-sized house cat just fits right in there.
Blocks with the number 2 improbably keep popping up out of the quantum foam, and Matt O'Dowd has to keep additively combining them, like with like, to reach 2048 before the universe fills up completely.
Bender's Gate 3
I just want one dialog tree in BG3 with the option "Bite my shiny metal ass." "Shut up, baby. I know it." or "Daffodil"

This would explain how construction mode is so easy. Cliff construction is actually earthbending.

Doctor and the time traveling Dwarves fight against the time traveling Goblins.
Neo and Morpheus are now building and flying spaceships about the galaxy
I'd watch it

One Piece meets Horizon Dawn?
Those robot dinosaurs do not stand a chance.
Luffy, Chopper, Ussop, Franky: HOLYSHIT ROBOT DINOSAUR! ( ⭐o⭐)

I guess Paul Atreides will be journeying to save the world from Shinra and Sephiroth. That shit is gonna get weird.
Alternatively, Avalanche joins the Fremen. I would watch the fuck out of that
Robin Hood: Men In Tights and Sid Meier's Pirates!
That could work! Get Mel Brooks writing and give Cary Elwes a new sword.
So... The Princess Bride?
The last movie I watched was Oppenheimer and I'm playing Hogwarts Legacy (obligatory FU JK Rowling.) So we're gonna nuke the wizards I guess?
You've Yee'd your last Haw pardner- Harry Potter
Cyberpunk, everywhere, all at once

Trebek: ...and what do you do for a living?
Link: ...

Resident Alien + Stardew Valley.
Simply check who is addicted to pizza and the case is solved.
You win
Death Standing and The Bear. I guess basically Norman Reedus bringing a quarrelling Italian American family back together by doing Door Dash?
Star Trek: Voyager + Brotato
Looks like my voyage back to the alpha quadrant is gonna be a lot more violent than I thought.

Flight out of LaGuardia is forced to ditch on water after its engines ingest a gaggle of broomstick-riding witches and a hippogriff. (Sully + Hogwarts Legacy)

Super Mario Odyssey and Twin Peaks. It can actually work.
I don't even want to know what the crossover of Helldivers 2 and Cocomelon would be.
Ugh I just thought of it:
Democracy. Democracy. It's time to spread democracy.
Yes, yes, yes, I like to spread democracy.
Good. Good. Democracy's good for you.
Yes, yes, yes, I like it woo.
I just can't stop laughing at this...if I could give you more than one up vote, I would.
Dune part 2 meets Monster Hunter World. I guess we're hunting Shai-Hulud.
Solo Leveling x Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
So.... Kinda just FF7 where Cloud is even more of an emo loaner than he already is?
That's no fun so let's go back one show further....
Battlestar Galactica (2013) x FF7R
Chadley has decided to wipe us out. We're fracked.
Faster than light + Tokyo Vice
So a spaceship full of journalists are trying to escape a fleet of Yakuza so that they can report on a breaking story. Gameplay includes making/breaking ties with factions of Yakuza and reporting on smaller stories along the way. Featuring Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe
I'd play it
small soldiers and lawnmower simulator.
so just that one scene in the movie.
this was boring.
King of the Hill and Saints Row. I predict a lot of propane explosions, a extremely frustrated Hank and Dale in his absolute best.
I would play the fuck out of this.
Me too, it would be awesome.
Persona 3 Reload, vs Infinity Train.
I guess Tartarus (the main source of exploration in the game) is now a train instead of a tower.
Team America / World of Warcraft. Getting my orcs and humans all covered in shit!
Night Court (original) vs Super Metroid.
Honestly, I don't hate it.
Minecraft and a Youtube cooking show. There's actually a combo of mods like that already, Pam's Harvestcraft and Cooking for Blockheads. They're fun to mess around with.
I have only ever used those mods for random unrelated things.

I’m going to say that watching sports counts, so we’re in for some Hockey Helldivers
I don't watch a lot of series so that's probably Sword Art Online Abridged... x OpenTTD
So it's probably about getting stuck inside a video game but the stated goal is to build a transportation network that spans the world. And if you're bankrupt in game, you die for real.
Splatoon 3 x Oppenheimer
Also you just made me realize how long have I been not watching movies
Do YouTube series count? If so, the boys from Adventures in Azerum are on their way to go get the Horn of Jurgen Windcaller for the Greybeards.
Who's line is it, Guardian? The classic improv show featuring the sol systems greatest warriors
Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer are now sitting around the fire in The Bannered Mare, Whiterun.
Okay, so we've got an entire new range of Family Guy skins for Guild Wars 2. I can sort of see Stewie as an Asura... and then we realize it's a Meg episone. A 175kg, 210cm Nord Meg episode.
Delicious in Dungeon x Star Rail
I guess this patch's event has you exploring an endlessly deep space labyrinth with no space anchors so your only choice to keep the party alive is synthesizing consumables from enemy drops?
A No Man's Sky Traveler is screwing up all of Alex Horne's tasks on Taskmaster with its jetpack and multi tool.
Resident Alien Baldurs Gate 3
Seems about the same?
Lego City: Whitechapel (Ripper Street and Lego City Undercover).
Star Trek TNG and Fallout 3. Would work extremely well, just imagine Fallout takes place on some alien planet.
The Mothership Zeta DLC we deserved.
Dark Matter and Starfield. They would probably fit in well.
Holy shit. Last movie was High Life with Robert Pattinson.
Last game I played was Elder Scrolls Oblivion.
It don't add up.
Dune and Elden Ring is going to make for some fucking crazy lore and story telling.
Dune and Final Fantasy VIII here - feels like it's a reasonable plot for another FF game, honestly.
Hitman and Brooklyn 99
House m.d. + beacon pines
I guess we got a sherlock homes in the cute and creepy story of beacon pines now.
I'm not really sure how Brooklyn 99 and Stardew Valley would mix.
Pretty chill small town cop simulator seems interesting
The X-Files and Hogwarts Legacy. Mulder and Scully investigate the wizarding world
Always Sunny in Philadelphia and HellDivers 2.
"The Gang defends Democracy"
Family guy and ghost recon wildlands. So basically fortnite.
The Paris-Nice bicycle race team time trial is the last thing I watched. Fallout 4 is the last game I played.
I dunno… seems like a weirdly good fit
Huh, **the legend of the drunken master ** and openttd
90 Day Adventurer: Baldur’s Gate
6 couples have 90 days to make it back to Baldur’s Gate or be consumed by the parasites in their heads.
I’d watch.
The Binding of Isaac: Psycho-Pass
Brooklyn 99 chess. That could work!
Malcom in the Middle and V Rising. There's many directions that could go in.
Shogun Solitaire?
That actually sounds like a billion dollar idea...
Curb Your Enthusiasm and Tomb Raider. Watch Larry Croft complain about literally everything as he tries to recover a lost artifact.
The Bad Batch and Republic Commando.
I think I just made a sequel?
Delta Squad hunting down the Batch? Huh. I might actually be able to get into that.
This will be the story of how a super hero dies and becomes a grim reaper. Hijinks ensue.
Dead like Me + City of Heroes.
I can't imagine the always sunny in Philadelphia gang have any wholesome business being pokemon.
Frieren x Helldivers 2
Taskmaster + Helldivers 2
Doing bug squishing tasks for democracy points?
Six and red dead online. Those cowboys are f*ckd.
At the time it was Re:Zero (your generic ultraviolet obtuse fantasy anime) and Foundation (not the apple tv show, but the medieval colony sim) so basically things would’ve meshed pretty okay.
Eve Online and Star Trek.
Dear God. I don't know what I just created, but I think I like it. The Federation is about to encounter the most terrifying civilization its ever run into, and they're all human. Just... very different humans.
Pokemon in the Naruto world would actually be sick. I'm ok with it. It's better than Boruto.
Pokemon Warrior, not bad. Pokemon getting off a boat in late 1800s San Francisco or late 1800s San Fran gangsters taking over Team Rocket, perhaps.
Large stacks of cards, neatly arragned in the Arrakian desert.
Dead Dragon-Ball Space
"We are... THE NECRO-FORCE!"
Shogun x Echo Night? Sounds pretty badass actually.
Apparently I'm playing/watching The Talos Principle 2.5: Solo Leveling. I guess 1k is gonna stop solving puzzles and thinking about philosophy, and just use his newfound powers to blast his way to Athena.
Sonic 3 & Gene Wilder
Star Wars and Warframe. Those work really well together :D
Dying Light 2(free weekend) X Shin Godzilla. Shit. Not gonna outrun this one.
The one before is EDF5 X Edge of Tomorrow. Sorta fitting.
Btd battles 1 or 2?
1
That's the better one I think. But the ads for the ir newer games annoy me slightly. I already bought btd6 (twice), why are you telling me to buy it?
The X Files crossed with Spelunky would be legit
Bitten and Watch Dogs legion. Hackers and got werewolves doesn't sound that bad.
Wow. I really want to watch the show/play the game where the Space Battleship Yamato battles with the Guardians of Destiny…
Project Zomboid with Reacher.
(Might actually be interesting to watch)
Super mario bros factorio
Disco Elysium + Nimona
Alf meets xonotic ... makes sense
Yellowjackets and Helldivers. This should be terrifying.
Summoners war - Star Gate Chronicles
Bojack Horseman is now an NPC in EVE Online, probably gives distribution missions for booze and drugs.
Jonathan Creek & Untitled Goose Game
Doctor Who Gmod… which coincidentally is what I was playing lmao
Breath of the Wild meets Drive to Survive. Netflix are making a docuseries about Link’s journey to free Zelda.
All in learning is lemmings have interesting, diverse tastes.
My crossover is boring. Balatro x Last Week Tonight. Weird card game with joke commentary?
The Bear and Plate Up! ... it actually just fits perfectly.
I also highly recommend Plate Up! for anyone who kind of liked Overcooked but wasn't quite hooked.
Last TV show marvel's "The Gifted", game is "Last Epoch".
Guess it's about you switching sides constantly due to terrible writing...
I really didn't like the TV show lol
I most recently played the tutorial for Stranded Deep. Not sure if I'll go any further with it. To mix:
Movie: Eat, Pray, Love (I think? It was on in the background at a bar a few weeks ago; I rarely watch movies).
TV Show: 世界の果てまでいってQ!( ItteQ ) which would potentially fit pretty well.
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills meets Cyberpunk 2077.
...which I'm pretty sure is still just Cyberpunk. They'd still be part of the ruling class, married to/divorced from some high up Arasaka CEO.
What We Do In The Shadows' cast goes on a Diablo-esque romp in Minecraft Dungeons? That could work.
MythBusters and Division 2.
POTC & Slay the Princess.
Not sure how that would turn out.
Orcs must die and Terraria. Technically it's already in Terraria with the Old ones army. Or Orcs must die with Betsy, that would be rough.
Good Omen Hell Divers .. it works
Murder at the End of the World ends up set in God of War: Ragnarok. Tyr's temple in Midgard works as a stand in for the murder hotel. Atreus plays Darby. Odin plays Alan. Mimir is now Ray, the AI floating head.
Avatar the last air bender and rock band. Aang has trouble landing notes on his guitar with his air bending, Katara fries her bass amp by accidentally dousing it in water, Zuko melts the drum kit when he gets pissed that he fucked up the timing of the last song, and Sokka just can't sing, plain and simple.
I know Zuko isn't really part of the gang, but I haven't watched enough to know what Toph is like yet.
Star Trek TNG meets Honkai Star Rail. That actually works pretty well, gonna spend all my jades pulling for Picard!
The Hebrew Hammer x Destiny 2. I just imagine Ghost sighing and saying "Oi" a lot.
Marvel Strike Force attends Abbott Elementary
Moral Orel x Punch-Out. So it's basically just this over and over (...) again: https://youtu.be/-aNVQAxZIJs?
Does Farming Simulator have a mod for spice harvesters yet?
Shadows over Loathing x The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again Today
I'm guessing a Lovecraftian world filled with silly jokes, but with more delicious food and annoyed tongue clicking? To be honest, Shadows over Loathing is weird enough that a man-sized house cat just fits right in there.
Lol, BTA: 3062 x One Piece
Oh god, imagine this crew transposed as Civil War Era pirates...
Gum Gum Gausszilla!
Star Trek: SNW and Age of Empires III.
Time travel episode?
Edit: I apparently don't know letters.
i think you meant SNW, but i did read that abbreviation through as Star Trek: Brave New Worlds.
One Piece and Smite. Actually, that sounds awesome.
Blocks with the number 2 improbably keep popping up out of the quantum foam, and Matt O'Dowd has to keep additively combining them, like with like, to reach 2048 before the universe fills up completely.
John Oliver x Cities Skylines??
I can imagine him doing a show on CS, but can't imagine him being a part of it except as small DLC.
Oh, mine matches up pretty well. Law and Order Criminal Intent and Mystery Case Files Prime Suspect.
Yes, I'm old.
My current crew members in FTL:
Chidi can't decide if he should man the shields to keep everyone safe or repair med station that's already on fire. We're basically doomed.
It’s Taskmaster: Los Santos.
Your task is to steal cars and murder civilians. Your time starts now.
Sam Loudermilk is in Blast Corps...
Fuck thats an esoteric combination.
Jujustu Kaisen x Resident Evil 5 Curses kinda act like zombies, so as long as Chris can see them, he'll be fine.
Apothecary Diaries and Final Fantasy 14... Checks out, Maomao could easily be an alchemist.
Tim & Eric Awesome Show in the Wolfenstein universe would be .. interesting
either even more unhinged, or straight political couch talk
