CeeCee Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Obviously at this point we don't know, but anything is possible. Unfortunately though, I doubt it, but we shall see. It would be amazing if they did. Quote Signature Guidelines: Avatar and signature total file size may not exceed 250 KB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Kohran Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I doubt it as Lego don't seem as keen on online games as they were just over ten years ago, plus the new line has been going long enough that I'm not sure a whole game to introduce people is really needed at this point.

Yeah. To a large extent, mobile games have supplanted online games as Lego's primary medium for free, widely accessible promotional games. Even if the original Mata Nui Online Game were released today, I reckon it would probably be done for both mobile platforms and online if not exclusively on mobile.

Sumiki Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I would absolutely love for there to be an OOG, but the time has passed for releasing a game like that to be effective. When it came right down to it, the online games of the pasts were marketing strategies to a certain extent. The way we consume media has shifted away from slow-paced Flash games. I wouldn't put it past some enterprising BZP member to create something similar to that in the future, though. Quote avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ta-metru_defender Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 In any case, OOG may now be one of my favorite Bionicle-fandom related acronyms. 1 Quote Hand-drawn, bespoke avatar by none other than Mushy the Mushroom. a body adrift in water, salt, and sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterchirox580 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 At this point I'd say an official one is off the table for the time being. I think lego might do something like MNOG if they release an official video game for the new bionicle line. Quote It's time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmstrongYong the X-Wing Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 If they make a Okoto Online Game it will be great, but I also think that it's possible it will been released in multiple platforms in order to make more fans.

Aanchir Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I'd love a game like this! It's one of the main things that Bionicle G1 had starting out that G2 lacks. At the same time, I recognize that it could be tricky in this day and age. When Bionicle.com launched in 2001, it only had three languages: English, French, and German. Today, the LEGO Bionicle site exists in many more languages, which means a text-heavy game like MNOG would be a lot more work for translators. Also, even in 2001 when developing the MNOG, Templar Studios struggled with meeting deadlines, and some planned content had to be cut. The game was fortunately still a masterpiece, but as we saw with the much glitchier Mata Nui Online Game II, there's no guarantee that a game that struggles to meet deadlines like that will end up offering such a solid gaming experience. I'm sure it's probably much easier to develop an action game that can appeal to kids than a more story-driven and immersive gaming experience. There are also some marketing factors that can complicate things. One of the things that made the Mata Nui Online Game and even its sequel so endearing was the choice to focus on the perspective of the villager characters. However, other than the Protectors, Bionicle G2 doesn't yet have any villager sets to promote. A game that focuses on the Toa and their quest is probably a much safer bet in terms of its promotional merits. However, all this doesn't mean that I don't think LEGO should try. Mata Nui Online Game was easily one of the best LEGO.com online games, and I'd love to see a new game that offers a similar immersive experience.

Kopekemaster Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I would absolutely love it if they did, but I'm not sure if they will. What I think would be especially great about it is that it could (as did MNOG) build the characters, locations, and atmosphere, which IMO is something it's been lacking in G2.

fishers64 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Even a Breakout-style OOG would be cool. I'd play that. Something that gets me exploring the island of Okoto.
